Simple Cravings

Getting into the fall spirit with some yummy treat for on special teacher!!

Master chief in the house for the birthday boy!

Taking a look around the other side…

This is all cake, signatures are not authentic just a nod to some of the inspiring basketball legends in my sons life.

I’m so excited how this came together. I made this cake for my son’s birthday and I really wanted it to be special. With all of the last year and changes and just everything this was a great way to get back into it and the celebrate the amazing young man he is!! To add to the it my daughter asked if she could help and really did a great job.

This is all cake and signatures are not authentic. C loves basketball and plays diligently everyday, studies videos and puts his all in every single time he time he plays. I wanted to make this cake for him and include a nod to some of the special Baskeball inspirations in my his life. More on the back side….

Feels good to be covered in sugar once again……
