Wii Mario Kart cake, Decorate-Your-Own cake, baby shower cookies and more!

May and June are always busy cake months for us, which is why we have been too swamped to post lately.  Nonetheless, we wanted to share some of what we have been up to as well as some up-coming projects too. 

For Memorial Day weekend, we delivered this cake for twins turning one to North Jersey.  The party theme was Safari, and the cakes were vanilla with pistachio whipped cream filling and chocolate with chocolate buttercream.

The following week, Christina's youngest and oldest children celebrated their 5th and 9th birthdays, respectively.  Aidan, the 5-year old, requested a Wii Mario Kart cake, while Mandara, the 9-year old, requested individual mini cakes for her three best friends, her sister, and her to decorate on their own.  Here is Aidan's cake as well as all five mini cakes, both in progress and done.

This past weekend, we had 40 baby shower cookie favors to make.  Each sugar cookie was a unique baby onesie in yellow, blue, green, and orange individually bagged with "It's a Boy!" ribbon in blue.




This week we have two small graduation cakes as well as an annual cake for the Peer Leaders in our middle school.  And next week, we are swamped!  180 cupcake wedding favors, a football-themed groom's cake, and a pirate's treasure box cake too!  Phew! 

Stay tuned for those pictures soon!

Happy baking!
