No Tricks, Just Treats...

Here's some "pump-cakes" that I made for the clients at the barn...chocolate cake with buttercream icing with Twizzler stems... they went quickly (both making AND eating!). Hope you Halloween is Hauntingly fun!

Oh Sweet Goodness...I'm still here...

I know I've been a bit absent here from blogland lately...life moves fast. Our horse business has been keeping me hopping, this is the busiest "slow" season we've ever had...every stall is filled...usually I have a lot of down time this time of year...not this year! LOL
However, I did find yet "another" passion besides playing with paper...I decided on a whim to take a cake decorating class at the local vocational school... turns out it's pretty darn fun, and I'm not too bad at it for a green novice...in fact my instructor keeps asking me if I'm sure I haven't done this before...LOL... So anyway, below is a few of my "projects"...
Below is the inspiration for the cake below it...this is one my clients show outfits... she's 15 and has been begging me to make her a cake...so I did...keep scrolling... And here's her cake...not too bad since it was my first non-homework cake...she loved it!
Below is my "practice" cake...I need to practice my roses...
