Destination Organization

We're excited to share about our participation in a great local community project -Destination Organization. The event is sponsor by the Arizona Chapter of Professional Organizers and this is their second year for the event. A family was selected who truly deserved a home make over with a focus on organization! To read more about this year's family, click here

As a sponsor for this years event, we participated by doing what we do best - providing a cake! we delivered a cake that was designed for the theme of the event including using the events logo and organization words and images. The cake was enjoyed at the big reveal by the family and volunteers. I became involved in this event through Susan Stewart who owns the business, Perfectly Placed - she writes a great ezine that you can subscribe to on her site.

Happy Valentine's Day

Here's a sampling of some of the treats we made for Valentine's day

Polka dot pink and brown baby shower

The cake and coordinating cupcakes were ordered for a baby shower. The cake is iced in chocolate buttercream and decorated with white and pink polka dots. The booties and rattle are hand molded from fondant. The cupcakes have a B monogram on them for Baby Bridget. The cake is a 10 inch round and they ordered 2 dozen cupcakes.

2 Harley-themed birthday cakes

These cakes were ordered for some coworkers birthdays - the group was in town for a sales meeting at the Kierland Westin and the theme for the dinner was "born to be bad". Everyone was encouraged to dress for a Harley motorcycle themed celebration. The birthday messages are done in a tatto font using edible images.

Jungle Themed Baby Shower Cake

This cake was a created for one of my husband's coworkers - her nursury theme is jungle themed so I designed the cake to coordinate. This is the second cake I made to celebrate this little baby's arrival - the first cake's design was our popular Sassy Circles with sugar molded booties. The cake colors are ivory, yellow and green - they are waiting to find out if they're having a girl or boy. The cake is an 8 inch and 10 inch which serves approximately 45. The top tier was white sour cream with strawberry mousse filling and the bottom tier is double chocolate sour cream with cookies and cream filling. The elephant, monkey and giraffe and hand-molded with fondant - my favorite is the monkey.
