Name Change

So, I guess since there have been lawsuits brought by Sprinkles Cupcakes to other bakeries with the name Sprinkles in it, I have decided to change the name of this blog.  I haven't chosen a name yet, but I will be changing soon.  I will keep you all posted on what our new name will be.  Until then, I will keep posting my schedule of classes and items that I make.  Have a great day!!

Wild Thing!

I thought I would post a couple of pictures of the Zebra Print Cupcake Tower I did the other day while I wait for my phone to ring.  I am doing a phone interview today and I REALLY want this job.  So while I wait, here you go:

I used the Wilton Cupcake Stand and decorated it using wrapping paper and ribbon.  I really liked the way it turned out.  I heard today from my client and she and her daughter were thrilled with it all!

Cupcakes in a Jar

A few days ago I was reading through some of my favorite blogs and I came upon this entry.  Cupcakes in a jar?  Yes, please!  Now, I love all things cakes, cupcakes and cookies so when I saw this I knew it was something I was going to have to try.

So, yesterday I headed off to my local store and picked up some jelly glass jars and cake mixes.  When I got home, I started off by making my favorite cupcakes: snickerdoodle.

I then took each cupcake and cut them in half.  Since I needed 3 halves for each jar, I used almost all the cupcakes.  

Now the fun begins!  You just layer cupcake and icing.  You can even add sprinkles on the top.

All you need to do now is put the lids on and add a pretty ribbon and you have a great gift!  I mean, who wouldn't want one of these?  You have this great little jar so if you don't eat it all you can save it for later.  I'm thinking a little basket of different flavors would make a great gift.  They hardly take any time at all to make and are so easy.  I'm so glad I came across that blog.  What a fun idea!





2012 Wilton Yearbook

The 2012 Wilton Yearbook is here!  I picked mine up a couple of days ago and have not put it down.  There are so many great ideas that I want to use all ready this summer.  There is a wedding cake design that I am DYING to try (so if you are getting married soon, look me up!). 

 I was a little nervous about this year's book because I really did not know what to expect, but just like every year, Wilton did not disappoint!  You should be seeing the yearbook in your Hobby Lobby stores soon and you can always go here to purchase one online.  You will NOT be disappointed!

New York Yankees

OK, so I couldn't post the cookies I made last week until after the receiver received the cookies.  Well, the cookies have been received and probably all eaten.  I'm happy to report they all made it in one piece.

Since my friend is a New York Yankees fan, I figured he would like these.  This is what I came up with:

I had a blast making these cookies.  I can't wait for my next project.  I'm thinking...BEACH!!

Fun Surprises!

This weekend I was working on a surprise for a friend.  I can't really show you what I did until my friend receives them, but I can give you a clue.

While working on this project I realized a couple of things.  (1)  I do NOT have enough cookie cutters!  (2)  I think I may love making cookies more than cakes!  Oh my goodness!  I never thought I would say that.

Anyway, my little man LOVES to make cookies so he got to make some this week too! 

If you can't tell, that is a hand.  My little man LOVES icing!!

My little man was so proud.  He loves helping me in the kitchen.  Maybe he will be the next Cake Boss!



So proud of his creations!





Baseball Cake

I did this baseball cake for an 11 year old boy's birthday this past weekend.  It is a snickerdoodle with a cinnamon buttercream filling and a buttercream icing.  I also made chocolate pops and chocolate baseballs.  Even the letters are chocolate.  I'm so glad he loved  it!

Long Time!

OK, so it has been a LONG time since I have been on here.  I have been trying to sort through things and figure out what I need to really focus on when it comes to this blog.  My original intent was to focus on cakes, cupcakes and cookies.  The thing is that there is so many more things that I do. 

I really want to have a focus for this blog, but I don't want to write a billion different blogs on different topics!  I feel as though I have always been a "jack of all trades, master of none".  I just want to share everything that I do, whether it be sewing, knitting, papercrafts, baking, etc.  

I plan to continue as a Wilton Method Instructor and I will be adding new classes every month.  I hope that you will stick around and see what is to come.

Have a great day!

Food Gift Friday

So I have decided that every Friday will now be Food Gift Friday!  I am working on different gift ideas that you can use for upcoming holidays or just because you want to give a gift.  I am really excited about the next couple of weeks.  I have been working on some really great Valentine's Day ideas.  Make sure you come by every Friday to see what I have been working on.  Here is just a little bit to wet your appetite!!
