Kirstie Alley fundraiser for Spay-Neuter Kansas Inc.

It is a quiet Tuesday so I thought I would go back in time before I started blogging to show you some darling cupcakes we did a couple months ago. Kirstie Alley was back in town for Christmas and threw a fundraiser party for Spay-Neuter Kansas Inc. She is a big animal lover and donates her time and money to this organization. It is a non-profit pet clinic on South Hydraulic that offers discounted spaying and neutering of pets for people who meet low income guidelines. She asked me to do some cakes and cupcakes for the auction. She is a very creative person so I always love it when she calls. We did some wonderful vintage looking cakes and dog and cat cupcakes that she served and also auctioned some off to benefit the clinic. It was a fun night.

It was a busy Saturday


What a crazy Saturday. We were short a decorator and got a little behind on cake orders, so sorry, but thank you for your patience. One of my cake decorators, Shar, went on a cruise with her husband for their 40th wedding anniversary. Congrats to them!! We sure missed her, but hope she is having a wonderful time and getting a good tan! I am so envious!! Here is a cute cake that we did for a little boy's second birthday. I'm looking forward to all the fun cakes for the upcoming week.

First Birthday Cake!


I wanted to share this cute first birthday cake. We have done so many cute ones that I have decided to do a whole display at the bakery celebrating that important first birthday. They aren't done yet, I will keep you posted when we have them all ready. The designs on paper are adorable. I know we are doing a cake similar to this but with Curious George on top, can't wait to see that. I will share it with you when we are done. Back to a busy Friday!

2 Days Left!!



Yesterday I told you we were icing like maniacs, well... Here is Team Maniac! From left to right that is Jessie, Bri, Aurora, Kelby and Jill, my fabulous cookie girls. They iced alot of cookies yesterday. That is probably why they got a little goofy and giggly at the end. I tell you sometimes the busier we are the sillier we get.

Stop by and check out their wonderful cookies!!!

9 Days until Valentine's Day!


I just wanted to show you a couple new things we have done for Valentine's Day this year. Here is a cute tiered design with fondant bears as a topper. It would be great for any Valentine's Day party.
Check out these cute cupcake creations. They are just adorable. We have them in the showcase at the bakery, but please give us a call if you want some. They will be selling fast.
And we decided to have a little fun with our Love me NOT hearts. Not everyone may be feeling the love, so we thought these were humorous.
We have lots of basket ideas on display at the bakery and on the website. Get your orders in early! We will be doing lots of cut-out cookies to sell out of the showcase, but we can never seem to make enough.
