Lemon Lovely: Bridal Shower Cake for Katie!

Our dear family friends and old neighbors the Butts are welcoming Katie into their family as she gets set to marry Donnie in May of this year in Palm Springs! We are so sad that we're unable to make it to the wedding! As kids, Donnie and I spent many years ripping it down Blackcomb Mountain in Whistler together and I have always been fond of him. It's so great to see him with Katie, she is such a kind and cool girl and just fit so easily into the family when she first came on the scene!

I was very happy to make a super cute lemon cake with lemon creamcheese frosting and matching mini cupcakes for Katie's bridal shower! The last pic is of the beautiful women of the Butt family, including adorable little Ivy... and Katie cutting into her bridal shower cake!

I am so very happy for Donnie and Katie - happy matrimony, you guys! 

"Showers of happiness!" now and always!

Pretty Party

One of my very best friends, the one and only Amy P, got engaged on a recent trip to Mexico with her awesome guy, Stephen! Hooray! It only seemed right to throw her a special little engagement party, complete with pretty-bottled champagne, mini chocolate ganache cupcakes and salted black licorice, Amy's fave.

Aren't those little royal icing flowers so cute? They prettify absolutely anything. You could put them on a meatball and serve them at a tea party, that's how cute those little flowers are!!

Congratulations Burgertime!

Hot Pink Cupcakes For A Hot Lady

One of my growing gang of loyal customers, Charlene, had a specific request for a friend's birthday: "Coconut cupcakes, hot pink icing with white and red hearts decoration!". I am thinking this is one hot lady who got to receive these adorable cupcakes! Aren't those dark brown cupcake liners hot-to-trot too? I love cupcake liners so much... just ask my husband Rich... I had to do an intervention on myself because I was stockpiling them so hard.

I also took this opportunity to take some snaps of my brand new, sparklingly gorgeous, 6 tiered, white, round plated cupcake stand!! Yay! It can be adjusted to any height and fits a whole lot of cupcakes. This is now available for rental for your wedding and party needs along with your dazzling and delicious Coco Cake cupcakes! Contact me for details!

Crazy old Pinky the Pup (the vintage dog toy) had to sneak into the pictures too of course, as he (yep, Pinky's a "he!") is perfectly coordinated to match the cupcakes. Also pictured on the bottom photograph: my awesome sis Leanne's beautiful letterpressed gift tag! Leanne will be launching her announcement card design business soon so stay tuned! For now check out her super cute blog dedicated to her love of letterpress.

Love, love lovin' the hot fuschia pink, and took many pics... As you can see... More to come as the Coco Cake weekend unfolds...
