Inspiration & Such
It comes in all shapes and sizes. I’m finding lately, im noticing that it can be from anything, a shoe, to a random piece of paper. Constantly I find myself thinking, how would I make that into a cake, or wow that pattern would be cool replicated in icing. It’s always a new challenge.
This weekend was no exception. I was given a napkin used at a bachlorette party. Who knew it would result in such a cool cake! I was happy with the result.
Never be afraid to give me something that you might like to see replicated. You never know what it will result in!
Here are a few more highlights from the weekend. Thanks everyone!!
bzzzzzzz.

Great Weekend!
This weekend was great. Busy, but great! I had to call in my “staff”. I use that term loosely haha. My Mother in Law, Mother and Husband all helped me out with some baking this weekend. With 10 cakes, it was the smart thing to do. Here are the highlights from the weekend.
I’m loving that it’s spring time! Time for spring cakes…so exciting! I hope everyone is out enjoying the weather!
On a side note: if you’re trying to contact me and I don’t get back to you in a few days, don’t panic, weekends are very busy for me and I often don’t have time to answer emails until late Sunday or Mondays. Please be patient, I will get back to you. I appreciate all of your calls, emails and word of mouth. Keep it coming!
Enjoy the week everyone!
25 Unforgettable Years
Back in early January, I was contacted by the Communications Intern with the Alzheimer Society of Sault Ste. Marie & Algoma District, Shaylan Spurway. She had contacted me to inquire about me donating a cake for their 25th Anniversary Gala. I was more than happy to jump on board. Not only is this a terrible disease, but it as effected my family as well as my husbands. How could I say no to something that was so close to my heart.
Shay and Bea came over to my house, and we immediately seemed to be on the same page. We stayed in contact for a few months making sure that things were moving along as planned. They chose a marble cake with vanilla buttercream to please everyone, which was a smart idea. Here is the final result.
It was pretty big! One of the biggest ones I have ever done. Nearly 200 forget me nots.
I was happy to help out the community that has been so great to me during this whole process. I can never say that enough.
I am grateful that Shay contacted me to do this. Grateful that I decided to help, and grateful for a new friend.
