Indy is back!

A little less scary than the real skull, but a super cool cake for this 5-year-old's birthday celebration.

Lots and lots of soccer balls

Not quite as healthy as oranges (the snack from my soccer memories)... but a great way to celebrate the season! We cranked out 72 of these in time for some weekend soccer parties.

A wedding cake for the couple-of-honor (mocha with espresso fudge frosting), an anniversary cake for the host and hostess (carrot with cream cheese frosting), and enough mini cupcakes (chocolate and lemon) to feed the 150+ guests... It was a busy and beautiful weekend event with lots of reasons for cake!

Southwestern Flair

Don't worry! The cake isn't spicy or pokey... But it will still go with this first-birthday, Mexican-themed celebration.

Airborne

We're finding out that kids are experts of all sorts of things... This birthday boy sure knows his World War II airplanes. In reviewing photos to be used for cake inspiration, he knew the difference between a Hellcat and an A6M mitsubishi zero plane!

The Word on the Street:
