I've been giving you little hints here and there butttttt I have recently fell pretty hard for swiss meringue buttercream.

Cookies & Cream Cake

A few weeks ago my not so little anymore cupcake turned 10. Would you believe when I started this blog she was a toddler? A TODDLER! We had a little belated celebration this week due to the location being booked solid in December. (Which totally bought me a few extra weeks during the holidays, winning.) Naturally the celebration called for cake, more specifically a Cookies & Cream Cake. When ... [ read more... ]

Purple People Eater Cake

When it comes to monsters there is only one one-eyed flying purple people eater, who we all totally love and adore despite his people eating tendencies. (Not to be confused with the one-eyed green monster, Mike, he and his furry purple buddy are not the people eating type.) How can we not love him I mean he plays in rock and roll band! Him and his catchy tune has been around since before most of ... [ read more... ]

Unicorn Zombie Cake

I have a little dilemma. It has occurred to me I pretty much start every post with "you guys I am so excited blah blah blah". I try to switch it up, I really do. But I can't! Because I really am pretty much always excited about sharing whatever sugar covered treat I created. I just really, really love sugar crafting and well sprinkles. I can't even help but be excited. Today though I am extra ... [ read more... ]

Banana Split Cake

There's one baking lesson that I know so well, yet just can't seem to learn. Don't ask the hubs to chose a baking flavor. Just don't. Even when I'm seriously at a fork...just...don't...do...it. No matter what the circumstances I will always end up even more confused, and potentially frustrated at the end of the conversation. Second lesson: don't bake cakes in the middle of the night. Let me ... [ read more... ]

Lime Dream Cake

This week was a CAKE week! Which automatically makes my week twice as good. That is if I totally wipe out all memories of my soon to be toddler ripping two new teeth through her gums like a baby T-rex growing claws, tiny baby arms, teeth, and tears everywhere. Naturally causing her to wake up at 4 AM e-v-e-r-y-d-a-y this week, which sends her clinging to my legs by 4PM with an all out meltdown. ... [ read more... ]
