Erin and Lenny are two lovely people who celebrated their fifth wedding anniversary recently… and Erin requested a chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting. I never keep peanut butter around because I am a horrible little peanut butter fiend. I could eat it with a spoon until the jar is empty and my jeans no […]
Richard Scarry-Inspired Sneaker Car Cake!
The very excellent Robin emailed me with a request: a special cake for her little cutie Henry (also known as Auggie) who was turning 1, and for her hubby Brady, who was turning 40. But she couldn’t decide on lion themed (Leo birthdays!), or shoe themed — because Henry adores shoelaces. We also threw around […]

Somewhere Over The Rainbow: Rainbow Cupcakes

Pretty lovely! Sweet Claire ordered from afar a delightful gift for her friends Tara and Elladee’s housewarming: rainbow cupcakes! These cupcakes […]
Maneki Neko Cake & Cupcakes!
Eeeeks! I just love it when I get a cake request for something as ridiculously cute as the Maneki Neko.

Tea + Roses Garden Party Birthday Cupcakes!
The beautiful girl that is Marla ordered an assortment of lovely Coco Cake cupcake goodies for her fiancee Arch’s brother and wife’s 40th birthdays… I tried to make a little garden-y tea party photo set-up for the cakes… I tried each cupcake flavour of course (as I always do). Yes, it’s been almost 2 years […]
