SUNNY STRIPES......

Love a striped cake, went for a tie dye striped look.

This was a lemon bar cake inside with Graham’s cracker crust baked on the bottom of each layer, lemon buttercream and a fresh lemon curd.

MINI CAKE!!!!

This is a little 4 inch cake, but she is tall.
Inside is a chocolate cake with a black cherry filling.

I used the same .shop “Signature Sprinkle Mix” as the cakesickles I posted the other day!! This mix is one of my favorite of all time and I am running low, and need to restock.

CAKESICKLES!!!!!!!!!!

They are easily the most convenient way to eat cake, gift cake and in general feel a lot less guilty about cake because they are only 3 or 4 bites.

I have been getting lots of orders for these guys lately and have been playing around with different flavors. These were a COCONUT cake flavor inside and they were delicious!!!

IT’S ALL ABOUT THE LOVE.....

Took a great spin class this morning with at Westport and she reminded me that Valentines Day is all about the LOVE, not just love for others, but love for yourself.

So even even if you don’t have a special someone, you can still celebrate and spoil yourself. Take that 7am spin, eat that chocolate, drink that wine, watch that reality show, put that moisturizing mask on and share the LOVE......

Thank for the reminder cousin 😍😍

TIE DYE VALENTINES CAKE......

A few weeks ago I had a request for a tie dye cake. It was my first one and I was determined to create the design using buttercream and not edible paint.

After a couple of failed attempts, I tried painting the buttercream on to a super chilled cake using a sponge brush and BAM, tie dye.

I have done a couple more since and I am obsessed with the look. Tie Dye cakes are officially my new fave.....for now.

CAKE TOP TUESDAY.....

Well, after a mediocre Super Bowl, I’m back with some more Valentines Day sweetness.

Posted this cake a couple weeks ago but here is a top view to celebrate . This cake was vanilla cake layers with an almond buttercream and crushed almond filling.

SUPER BOWL DOIBLE POST!!!

Another 4inch cake for the Bucs.

I’m excited to watch some football, but neither team is “my team” so I don’t really have a favorite. I’m just using it as an excuse to eat cake......

SUPER BOWL DOUBLE POST!!!!

This little 4inch Chiefs cake needed its own post.

This cake is chocolate layers with a cherry compote.

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?!

I am! Along with cake I love sports, really any opportunity to get a little competitive is my jam. It isn’t about winning, although I love a good win, it’s about pushing yourself to your limits and seeing what you can really do. Competition isn’t about the opponent, it’s about you, so push yourself.

When I started making cakes, I was terrible, but I kept pushing and I kept looking for inspiration from others to push my internal competition to be better at caking than I was the day before. Nothing is easy at first, and when it gets easy, you get to take it to the next level.......

Moral of the rant, push yourself, always be looking for inspiration, become your biggest competition and have some fun along the way.

I LOVE A CAKESICLE!!!!!!

MINI CAKE......

Quarantine has definitely encourage my min cake game. This is a little four inch cake that was perfect for my 5 person family.

It was of course strawberry inside as I work with my sister in law to find her perfect wedding cake flavor. The goal is strawberry shortcake, that is able to be stacked. Trying another filling this week that I think will do the trick.

Clearly still into Valentines Day decorating. Maybe I will switch it up with a little football inspiration.....who can say......
