Sean P's Birthday

Happy Birthday Sean P! The boy who LOVES the movie Cars!!

A Cake for Ellie!

Ellieanna is a sweet girl with the bluest eyes, and the sweetest smile! This was a cake I made for her baby dedication.

This cake was created for a lovely bride and groom whose theme was "tropical islands". The cake was made of alternating layers of fresh strawberry cake and dark chocolate cake with chocolate ganash. A little like a chocolate covered strawberry.

Baby Luke William's Christening

Luke's mommie asked for a cake that was a combination of two designs. I pray the family was please with a delicious cake.

Lemon cake with lemon curd and lemon buttercream filling.

Iced Coffee to the Rescue!

This morning I needed a little boost...but I didn't want a lot of sugar or calories so this is what I came up with...and it was very Yummy!
1 Cup Strong black coffee (I like Green Mountain Black Magic)-if using a Kurig-I use the small cup setting.
1 scoop Slimfast-chocolate high protein
1 cup of ice
Truvia-to taste
Directions:
Using blender-add coffee, slimfast, and truvia and pulse until well blended
Add ice and blend until very small ice crystals (similar to a Frap)
Enjoy!
Only 110 calories-and delicious...includes protein!

What Clients Have to Say...

A Very Girly Birthday Cake...

Tara, I couldn't wait to come home to email you about this cake. It (and you) were the hit of the party. That is literally the conversation I had over and over with everyone. The main comment was "This cake is so Celeste!" and beautiful. The only regret I had was that I did not have your card to hand out. Everyone wanted to know all about you. It not only was perfect in every way, it tasted phenomenal! Celeste, my cousin, just loved everything about it. She really did not want me to cut it, but I assured her that we had pictures and that the guests wanted to taste it. Again, it far exceeded every wonderful expectation I had, which made it more than wonderful Tara! Really great....

Thanks,

Kelly Keh

Shoe Cake...

The cake was the focal point of the evening. We were absolutely amazed at the design that you came up with. The name in the shoe!! That just "took the cake"!! The colors and detail were so so cute! And then there was the eating of the cake. So many of our guests said that when a cake is decorated so beautifully as yours, often the taste is just so so. We had people asking for a second piece. We were positively delighted with everything, Tara. Your excellence is such a reflection of the God who you serve. Congratulations on the creative genius which you so generously share with us. We love you and thank you for everything.

Gift Box Cake...

YEY for the cakes in Tara's dreams!!! What a hit the package and the doggie made. When people saw it their jaws LITERALLY dropped. Everyone asked about you and your business. The carrot cake and buttercream was superb. My aunt absolutely loved the package, the bow, the flowers, the beads, the signage, the colors, and the westie. Tara, it made such a big hit. Everyone with a camera took photos of the cake! You deserve another giant hug and great big THANKS. Thank you for the wonderful work of art you prepared for us. Everyone cringed when the cake got cut but Betty Jean has all the commemoratives that you made: the lid, the flowers, the doggie, etc. as a forever keepsake. You did good, Girl!!

LOVE and thanks
