I was asked by Carusele to be a part of this fun Fall holiday baking campaign, sponsored by Splenda Stevia Canada. Although I have been compensated, all opinions are my own! FALL BAKING IS HERE! Which also means Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Time to get cozy and light some candles and rustle up some casseroles […]
Kawaii Harry Potter Cake!
It’s my kawaii Harry Potter cake!!! I made this kawaii Harry Potter cake for my dear friend Mia’s son Theo’s seventh birthday. My journey to being a Potterhead has been, ahem, decades long. Almost twenty years ago my then-boyfriend Rich was plowing through the series (which, when I look back, was rather adorable) and he encouraged […]
Hand Painted Tie Dye Cake!
I finally tried edible paint! My dear niece Kensie turned ten years old (WAHHH) and I wanted to make her something special for her kids’ party. It ended up being a hand painted tie dye cake, as Kensie is super into tie-dye right now. It was so much fun and yes, it really is like […]
Homer Simpson Cake For Sydney
My adorable, blond, curly haired white niece Sydney turned three!

Cake Walk Cakes for Teddy’s Carnival!
Time is flying as usual and it’s already the END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR. Teddy’s school community ROCKS and this year I got a little more involved in the school carnival, taking on the role of Jolly Jar co-coordinator (LOL) because the jolly jar booth didn’t have anyone to coordinate it this year, and the […]
My Dad’s 75th Birthday Sock Hop + Striped Buttercream Comb Cake!

My mom went wild and threw him a 1950s themed sock hop party centered around the family jukebox, seventy plus octogenarians (but young at […]
Aloha Kitchen Guava Cake Recipe
I’m so excited to share this pink guava cake from my wonderful blog pal Alana’s book Aloha Kitchen: Recipes From Hawai’i!!!

And just like that, we are completely slammed with holiday vibes. This year I’m determined to keep it ZEN CHRISTMAS and chill out.
