The Perfect Wedding Day

I need to preface this post by saying I am super bias, this was not just any wedding, but it was my adorable little sisters wedding, so it was obviously the nicest wedding I had even been to, other than my own of course!  

  

The cute couple also chose not to have traditional flower center pieces, but Cake Pop Bouquets on all 22 tables! That ended up being nearly 300 Cake Pops! They were their fun yellow and blue colors and the guests loved that they got to eat the decorations (but not until after the cake cutting!)

 It was a perfect day on August 20^th and she was the most gorgeous bride I had ever seen. She was truly marrying her Prince Charming!

Check out those eyes!

Too CUTE!!

 

Connie and Bryan were so happy and could not have been more in love. College sweethearts and best friends for all eternity! I was blessed to be a small part of their big day.

KISS...right after feeding the cake to each other

Connie wanted a four tiered fondant square wedding cake; I made it to her exact specifications! She designed it and I must admit she has excellent taste. I love the one blue tier and the huge yellow gerbera daisies with white roses. It was the first square cake I had even covered in fondant, so I was glad it turned out as cute as it did. 

Love this picture

 Their photographer is located in the Bay Area, so if you have a CA wedding look her up!

Congrats Connie and Bryan!

Love you two together!

March Marble Madness

Not only Basketball involves Madness in March, but Natalie’s Cake Pops have gone MAD. Mad-Awesome, that is!!!

I have been having way too much fun creating these Marbled Cake Pops.  Making them marbled is such an elegant way to embellish these playful Pops and make them perfect for any occasion. Marbling allows you to custom make Cake Pops in any color scheme. Also, guaranteeing that whatever colors you pick will always produce beautiful Cake Pops.

Marbled Cake Pops would be a perfect choice for a Bride and Groom looking for the ideal Party Favors! They can use their wedding colors and wow their guests!

Marbled Cake Pops would be a perfect fit in any of the 3 style Cake Pop Bouquets I offer.  Also, they are great for baby showers, birthday parties, anniversaries, corporate gifts, holidays, bridal showers, and so much more!

Enjoy the March Marble Madness!

Happy Birthday

This weekend I did a birthday party for an adorable 2 year old boy. His favorite thing is cars, trucks, or anything with wheels, so that obviously was the theme. I made a delicious Fondant two tiered birthday cake. The top tier was yellow cake with a lemon butter cream filling and the bottom tier was chocolate was a vanilla butter cream filling. Everyone loved it! I handmade the fondant, the road, the road signs, his name, and the polka dot boarder.

However, the party would not be complete without CAKE POPS! They followed the same car theme. The colors were blue, brown, and orange. Inside was yellow and chocolate cake. It is so fun choosing the perfect sprinkles and embellishing the top with a little car or stop sign. The toppers I did not make. I picked them up at a local craft store.

With a perfect cake and Cake Pops, you cannot go wrong! I decorated the rest of the table with pails full of candy, Goldfish crackers (what 2 year old doesn’t like gold fish?), and a 3 layered stand with Cake Bites! TOO cute!!!
