Cupcakes galore!


I have been making LOTS of cupcakes today. Since variety is the spice of life, I decided to follow it here too! These yummy guys are a mix of vanilla buttermilk or chocolate buttermilk cupcakes, iced with traditional, double chocolate or raspberry buttercream.

A very BIG birthday


Last week was my husband's grandfathers 85th birthday. A pretty big deal around here! His cake was vanilla buttercream filled with whipped chocolate ganache and iced in swiss buttercream meringue. It was pretty tasty, and I rarely get to eat my own creations!

Arrow of Light


This was a cake for a very special occasion. I didn't know much about scouting at first (my boys haven't gotten there yet) but I learned that the "Arrow of Light" is a pretty big deal that required not only a ceremony but a special cake! This was vanilla cake with traditional buttercream topped in rolled fondant.
