News

The latest in cakes are as follows. This was one for a 50's themed girl's birthday. The poor poodle was a challenge on the skirt as I was going from memory (not that I ever wore one). After the fact I found pictures GALORE that my dear husband had gotten off the internet. Oh well.
The black "things" on the sides are not wheels in case you wondered!!! They are records. Hey, I did the best I could.
Ethan really liked the saddle shoes. He kept commenting on them until the lady came and picked up the cake!!
This cake was made for a baby shower. The top cake was supposed to be a "gift". My corners got a bit wrinkled instead of nice and smooth. I just decided that it was "gift wrapped" by Troll!!! :-) I really enjoyed doing both these cakes. My kids are so good when I'm doing one. I usually start in the morning with baking them. Then the decorating process takes anywhere from 2-3 hours. They just play and whatnot while I work in the kitchen. I don't know how many times I've thanked the Lord that He's given me a talent that I can do things for other people. I'm not a professional by any means but I have fun.

Gwen, you definitely have a talent for making cakes!
We have been so pleased with the ones you have made for my girls. And I especially liked the baby shower cake you made for Kara.

You do a fantastic job, girl! I also love the pictures of the snow and your family fall picture. Where was that taken? Someone took an excellent picture.
