I have been told that my animals always have creepy eyes. I guess the king of the jungle has a scary stare. I kinda like it. Rarrr.

Vanessa + Jason
I have been looking forward to making Vanessa's wedding cake for a very long time. Making a wedding cake for a best friend is the reason why I love what I do. I don't give great speeches, I am an appalling public speaker, but I show my love through food. I always keep it sweet. This cake tells the story of a life time of friendship. It also tells the story of discovering an amazing love. It is the path we take in life to end up exactly where we belong. You might have to swim up stream, but in the end the journey was a beautiful one. Vanessa has been a best friend and a supporter of mine forever. Her generosity and kindness are effortless. She is as beautiful as she is smart. And funnier than anyone gives her credit for. She and Jason have a seamless way to put you at ease and make you feel welcome. I can sum up their relationship with laughter. And they sure know how to throw a good party! Congratulations V & J! |

ratbit
Kelsey has a new friend. The Ratbit. Half rat and half rabbit. She possesses the unfavorable attributes of a rat, such as the slinky tail, coarse greasy fur and affinity for putrid trash. However the Ratbit does have the docile disposition of a bunny with its perky ears and large Thumper-like hind legs. All alone in the world, she is truly a one of a kind. As special as she is frightening.

I have been blessed to be best friends with YiYi for what seems like my entire life. She has always been an inspiration to me. She is intolerably clever and wickedly smart. Cool, and easy to talk to. Effortlessly beautiful, and my spiritual guide. (It is little known that YiYi has given me my "signs from god," pendants that offered protection from evil. Thank you YiYi)

the best
Yes, it is a baseball with the A's logo on it. Thanks for asking. And yes, it is the best.
I have a long standing distrust of the Cupcake Cake. They are vile, lumpy, distasteful creations, fancied by Supermarket Shelves nation wide. I have seen many of these bleak and pitiful creations made to celebrate most holidays...
None as glorious as my baseball CCC to celebrate my birthday. I love my CCC. It is not everyday I get a birthday cake made for me. It was a great honor to have my beautiful housemates craft this clever arrangement of cupcakes. In good taste, the ladies made them not only organic, but a little on the baked side. Thank you Mia and Shetal. It is a gift I will never forget.

eve-il eye
I am well known for my scathing evil eye. Over the years I have perfected my icy, piercing stare. That is why I was so excited to do this bazar and creepy treat. It's not every day someone asks me for a blood shot dilated pupil in cake. And I love it. The best reaction came from my coworker who screamed out loud when she opened the cake box.
The real story behind the eye was told to me by the middle aged men that bought it. These jokers ordered the scary eyeball for a childhood friend to commemorate their shared years spent tormenting the neighborhood man with the gimpy eye. Cruel childhood prank makes good cake.
