Melissa and Clayton: "The Party of the Year"





What a night! I love attending the events for which my cake is created. It makes the connection between the cake and the client so much more meaningful. Melissa and Clayton's wedding was an absolute BLAST! Everyone in attendance cut loose, and it was clear that we all shared and supported the love they both showed for each other. Melissa looked beautiful and they put on quite a show. I feel proud to check this event off my list, but I'm a bit sad that it's come and gone! Luckily I'll be able to keep Melissa and Clayton in my life as friends. I hope every couple is this enjoyable to work with!

The baby shower cake fit for a king



I've found with cake making that it's "once a client, always a client." I really enjoy making second and third cakes for the same people. One of my best friends growing up threw a baby shower for her older sister, and her mom and her thought to call me for the cake. I love baby showers because they have such fun themes. The possibilities are endless! Clearly, this shower had a jungle theme.

A big weekend coming up!

Melissa and Clayton's wedding is this weekend. This is a cake I've been looking forward to for almost a year now. Melissa is a friend who, like many others, have trusted me to make their cake as a friend first and a vendor second. I have loved the chance to build my business alongside Melissa and Clayton (among many other friends) and I can't wait to see how the cake turns out. I will be attending the wedding as guest as well as the cake maker and it means a lot to share in their special day in more than one way. Pictures of the cake will follow the weekend's celebration. As for now- let the baking begin for this 5 tier creation!!
