the same weekend i made the rosette graduation cake, i also made a minecraft cake for lochlyn, hazel’s old bff, from our homeschool co-op, from way back in the pre-covid days. lochlyn’s mom gave me free reign, so i showed her this cake i made for isaac’s 8th birthday, and she liked it so it […]
graduation rosette cake.
i recently had a barrage of cake orders. a barrage, i tell you.really, i only had three, but i’m still always slightly stressed out about each and every cake, so this was all i thought about for a few weeks. firstly, my pal heather, whose daughters my girls adore, requested a graduation cake for her […]

april. 2022.
i’ve spent a lot of time trying to organize these photos into some sort of grouping that makes sense, but also accounts for the dimensions, orientation, and quality of the photos. but, april was such a strange month, fully of visits and cakes and such, so the random leftovers of april are just that, very […]
