Pretty in Pink Cake

I made a pretty pink cake this weekend, for a very girly 3 year old. It was her birthday on Saturday and she is the epitome of a girly girl. She wanted frills, lots of pink, and chocolate (a girl after my own heart). I love ruffle cakes, they are so easy, but turn out looking beautiful. I also did some cupcakes, which you can see below. I used a smaller rose tip for the cupcakes, and they came out sort of a mix between flowers and ruffles. The cupcakes would also work great for a baby shower, or engagement party, or any spring time event. Hopefully I'll get to post some of the pictures from the party. Happy Mother's Day!

Chips Ahoy

I am excited to say that I was asked to make the desserts for a client meeting this week. This was one of my first professional gigs, so I really wanted to wow the crowd. The client wanted something small (no one likes to stuff their face during a meeting) so I decided to do a Chips Ahoy theme trio of mini desserts. Up front are white chocolate trifles with cookie crumbles. In the middle are vanilla cupcakes with cookie dough frosting and at the top are cookie sandwiches with a dark chocolate ganache filling.
