Fresh Flower Wedding Cake

I am always so thrilled when a couple asks me to make their wedding cake. I've been lucky enough to please three happy couples so far, with some more coming in the future. 

Kassidy and Michael wanted a tiered white cake with buttercream frosting for their wedding and other than that, they let me take creative control! I was so happy to take this project on because I have never made a tiered wedding cake before and I knew I was up for the challenge! 



I had a whole bunch of fun putting together this wedding cake. I spent a day baking the cakes and another day was spent icing and putting everything together. I was so excited to ice the cake and put my first tiered wedding cake together that I somehow missed baking one of the cakes! I came back to my cake the next day with enough time to ice everything together and realized my mistake. To say the least it was chaos in the kitchen for a while, but everything turned out just fine! 



On the day of the wedding, I attached some BEAUTIFUL fresh flowers that coordinated with everything and that were set aside for the cake. I played around with them for a while until I got them to sit just the way I liked them. I've got to say, the fresh flowers were the PERFECT finishing touch to the cake!





The beautiful bride and her groom were thrilled with the cake and how it all came together. By the sounds of it, they were eating it all through the next day!

Reese's Peanut Butter Squares

I'll just go ahead and tell you what my favourite thing to do is. You may guess any of my hobbies - baking, crafting or creating - and while I do really enjoy those things, my favourite thing to do is make people happy! I realize that this makes me sounds like a 'people pleaser' but in fact, I am far from it. I enjoy making people happy because it makes me happy (okay, now I sound a little selfish.)

Regardless, what better way is there to make people happy than through gifts of food? That is, delicious dessert foods to be more specific. 



I stumbled across this delicious recipe one day and decided I HAD to make it for my co-workers! It's and simple recipe with very few ingredients and the end result is to die for! If you are a Reese's Pieces lover, you will LOVE these! Head on over to Let's Dish for a recipe you can't resist!  


These babies are super quick to put together to take to a BBQ or Dinner Party when your short on time. No one will know that it took you under 5 minutes to throw together the highlight of the night!!

ENJOY!
