Happy Birthday Cookies

Well, tomorrow is my birthday!

For the longest, I have NOT been looking forward to this birthday. 

But for some reason, all of a sudden, I'm okay with my age. 

I'm now looking forward to a new decade of growth and opportunity. 

So to celebrate, I made Chocolate Chip, Sugar and Chocolate

cookies in my favorite color!  So here's to a fantastic decade

hopfeully full of love, happiness and amazing opportunities!

My Girlie Birthday Cake

I have been wanting to do a 'girlie' cake for a while now. 

And thanks to my girlfriend's boyfriend, I was finally able to do so.

This is a double vanilla cake with my
signature dark chocolate frosting.

It's covered with fondant and topped with a fondant & gumpaste bow

and designed with fondant accents.

And although it's hard to tell in the photo,
the fondant and accents are purple.

I was so glad I could do this cake!

Happy Birthday Courtney!!!!!

Earth Day Cookies

These cookies were created for Earth Day.

Happy Earth Day!  Recycle & Save The Earth!

African Violet Cake

This African Violet Cake was a special request for a woman

who is celebrating her 95th birthday.

It is a double vanilla cake with buttercream frosting,

covered in fondant, Oreo cookies for dirt and

over 80 colorful African Violets

(I may actually have gotten to 95, but I lost count. :-))

I think that this was my most extreme cake so far

as I had to taper the bottom

of the cake so that it looked like a potted plant

BUT I couldn't taper it too much so that when they

continue to cut the cake, it would still stand up once

half of it was gone.

It's amazing how much architectural work goes into a cake!

Who knew!?!?

Easter Basket Cookies

These cookies were a surprise for a husband from his wife. 

They are a really sweet couple!

I really enjoyed designing these cookies.  I added sanding sugar
to some of them.

I like to create designs that I haven't done before

so that clients don't get the same items.  :-)

Mets Cupcakes

These Mets Cupcakes are a dark chocolate cupcake covered with

vanilla buttercream and topped with an edible Mets logo. 

These were a special request for a big Mets fan.

The awesome part is that not only did the birthday guy like them,

he made them his Facebook profile photo!

How sweet!  :-)

Mother's Day Cookies

In addition to my Rose Cupcake Bouquet, here are some
Mother's Day Cookie Gift Sets.

These can be ordered as is with your choice of colors, or

I can mix up the cookie shapes to fit the mom in your life.

Walk Against Hunger Cookies

A fiend of mine organized a fund raiser for the

Connecticut Food Bank's Walk Against Hunger cause.

Since I wasn't going to be able to walk with them, I donated the below

Easter platter of cookies for thier auction.

The Perfect Mother's Day Gift!

For Mother's Day, give the mother in your life a beautiful cupcake bouquet.

Each bouquet is covered with 6 cupcakes designed to look like a rose.

Each bouquet comes in a usable flower pot tied with a color-coordinated ribbon

and includes your choice of chocolate or vanilla cupcakes

and vanilla buttercream for the flowers.

The color of the arrangement is your choice.

Please order early, as these will book quickly!

Baby Boy Shower Cookies

These cookies were created for a baby shower
for a baby boy that's on the way.

The little red wagons were hand carved since I couldn't find a cutter

locally and ordering online was going to take longer than I'd like. 

April Showers Bring Beautiful Rainbows

Spring is in the air. April is bringing us lots of showers

and a few rainbows.  So to celebrate April,

I made some rainbow cookies!

The top 2 designs are now featured on
