It's my favorite time of year! It's rolled cake & berries with whipped cream season!
I had to share some pictures of what my Mother's 29th (again) birthday cake looks like on the inside :) Also, a couple of mini cakes. My take on "Veryberry Shortcake"♥
It's great to live in California where strawberries are always in season!
A beautiful Sunday afternoon at the Club Room was the perfect setting for the perfect celebration!
Monique & Bryan are expecting little "Myles James Robert" in late August or early September & we can't wait to meet him!!! The cake is chocolate fondant covered white cake with fresh organic strawberries, a favorite of Miss Monique. The food was a build your own taco bar, & Bryan crafted a special home brew for the crowd.
There is nothing better than teaching a child to bake & allowing them the creativity to create their own dessert. My niece Maddie came to visit & got to enjoy baking with Aunt Mandy♥ She LOVES sprinkles!!!
Part of the fun and craziness of wedding planning is a cake tasting. These lucky lovebirds enjoyed cake for a week! I think it was enough to fill them up until the August Wedding. They were able to mix and match different kids of cakes and fillings to create their perfect masterpiece which I'll be making. Don't let their faces fool you...this was serious and tasty!
