i had a few leftover cupcakes from allison’s shower, so i thought ike would like to decorate them. i showed him how to make a big delicious swirl and handed over the piping bag. he gave it a shot, but got pretty frustrated and gave up. such little hands… i convinced him to hold it […]

my friend allison, who has helped me on cake endeavors in the past, and whose son is terrific pals with my ike, is going to have a baby girl in may. she’s due two days after anna’s birthday (who was born three days, late, if you recall, and had to be dragged out kicking and […]
owl mania
seems the trend these days is towards owls. with the help of my pal bridgette, i rolled out these owl and starburst cupcakes for the shower of one martha metzler and baby sam. sam junior, to be exact. 🙂 unfortunately, due to some sick kids and tired parents, i was unable to attend the festivities.
