The Weekend of Dots

Once and a while, an idea for a cake comes around from a client that I’m more than excited to do. This weekend was it, I was SO excited to sit down and get started. I won’t lie, I thought about it all week. That’s how excited I was.

When Mel and Tim came to me and gave me a rough idea for their wedding cake, my brain immediately went into overdrive. Not only was this something different, but it was something I had wanted to do for a while because there was so much potential with it. Not only did they give me creative control and trust me to come up with something great, they didn’t buy a topper until discussing it with me first. Now I know what you are thinking…”but I have to have a cake topper”. In reality, cakes do look better with something placed on top, however it’s much better to sit down and go over what you want before it is purchased. Simply because what happens if your cake and topper don’t match? Mel and Tim wanted something on the top, but couldn’t find it anywhere. I quickly suggested that I make something to fill that void. I think what we came up with was great, and it suited it perfectly.

Congrats Mel and Tim, I hope youre day was everything you wanted. high five!! ;)

Happy Anniversary Curt and Jes!

Well, one year ago today, two of our closest friends got married! Little did I know that my first wedding cake would have been such a huge hit!

Thanks Donna for that picture!!!!

Since my husband Anthony and I were Curt’s guinea pigs to start his business, it only seemed right that Curt and Jes were mine. To this day it remains the same. They are often my guinea pigs for new flavours and any time there is extra cake they tend to get it! Happy Anniversary guys, I can’t believe it’s been a year already, and quite a year at that!

On that note, I feel the need to post these pictures. I am in love with them! Be sure to check out the gallery, lots of new cakes!

Have a great week everyone!
