Almond cake with raspberry filling for an Asian-themed wedding.

So I was very excited to purchase yet another refrigerator recently. It is so tall, shiny and handsome, I fell in love when I saw him But unfortunately, a few hours of being plugged in, rendered his inside HOT not cold! We thought he was having a slight identity crisis, perhaps confusing himself with a warming oven… so we called in the refrigerator doctor to evaluate the situation. Luckily he was able to fix a crack in a pipe that must have happened during shipping. I was a little worried when he whipped out the blow torch….but apparently that’s all the rage in the world of welding So my new refrigerator has found himself, and he’s cool as a cucumber. Actually colder than a cucumber…but you get the point. That’s all for now! tootles.

50th Anniversary “White Wedding Cake” with fresh flower arrangement. Flowers included white roses, hydrangea and orchids.

This cupcake cake was for an Engagement party this weekend. The client had seen something like this in a magazine – and we recreated it the best we could from her description. I actually wound up building the stand to fit the specifications. I’m planning on buildling them to order for those who may need a certain type of stand for a cake or cupcakes. More details to come!

I was pleasantly surprised today to find out that my Van Gogh Cake won renmeleon.com’s Chameleon Award for Exceptionally Inventive Artistry!  Special thanks to Ria for recognizing my work.
