Valentines Day Cupcakes

Continuing to spread the love with a video of the making of these cupcakes! If you get the chance to check out my other videos they're not terrible!

Cookie Dough Filled Cake

When a close friend's birthday comes around it's always a great time to experiment with a new cake idea!

I wanted something that would be decadent and memorable so I went with this vanilla cake with chocolate chip cookie dough!

Watch below to enjoy the decorating. I learned a few things with this experiment- mainly that spreading cookie dough is noooot easy at all!





I also took the time to make the chocolate chip cookies as well to give it a little extra homemade charm. Nothing beats my recipe! Oreo's however if course were store bought haha,

A Friendly Valentine

Celebrating Valentine's day the only way I know how… By baking and AVOIDING all restaurants within a 3 day radius of the day.

Because of my crazy schedule we celebrated on Saturday evening with silly gifts and chocolate. We don't go too crazy- there was a $25 limit which I think is healthy for these silly little holidays- it's about being together after all! .. Plus my honey isn't big on Valentine's day as a whole

Along with an AMAZING steak and of course some wine!!

A beautiful date night was had!

To continue the festivities and to make good use of an adult snow day, I whipped up some loving Valentine's Day themed cupcakes for my office!

Chocolate and Vanilla Cupcakes with chocolate, pink, red and white icing. Topped with some lovely heart sprinkles!

I am crazy proud of my staple chocolate and vanilla cake recipes! Along with my icing recipe can't be beat.... Considering sharing them in the future!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Valentines Day!

Chocolate Birthday Surprise

My general manager wanted to surprise one of the team managers with a chocolaty surprise for her 50th birthday!

Chocolate cupcakes with chocolate icing and some traditional silver balls to represent the glorious 50th birthday! And another $30 for the SPCA!

Purple Paws

Another $20 for the SPCA ! 

Vanilla cupcakes. With purple, blue and equipped with kitty paws! So appropriate! The person who ordered them got them for his girlfriend- when I asked what she liked to get ideas for the cupcakes he responded int he most adorable guy way possible ! His response was ..."She likes cats! .. And purple! ... And Blue.... I'm not helping at all am I?..."
I told him I would work with that... And I think I did pretty good!

Cabin/ Curling hobby Birthday cake

Finally got the video of my Uncle's cake edited!! ... It's really bad haha



Between being in my grandmother's kitchen, having no tripod or turn table and my mother stopping the recording at the end- this was a fun adventure

Disney Inspired Tropical Cake

A birthday cake for an old friend of mine! I had the honor of doing her wedding cake 6 years ago and now I am making her kids birthday cakes as they grow!

2 tiered tropical birthday cake. Lemon cake with a Disney flare. 

And also another $75 for the SPCA!

The tropical vibe was really set off by the water and the cinnamon sticks to represent a wooden fence along the base of the cake.

My Uncles 60th Birthday Celebration

I had the honor last month to do the cake for my Uncle's 60th Birthday party!

It was a lemon 2 tiered cake with all of his hobbies rolled into 1.

Side 1 was his camp (although it kinda looks like an outhouse...) topped with a woods scene to get the feel.

 Next up is his home! The Acadian flag represents where he's lived all his life... And he also makes flag poles in his spare time :)

Lastly the final side represents his hobbies... Curling! Done with fondant curling stones and all.

I was by far the youngest person at this party by 30 years but it was a great time for everyone!

The money my aunt gave me for the cake immediately was put in the pot for the SPCA!
