The inside of this cake is swiss chocolate with strawberry chocolate filling. The exterior is fondant. This was made for a fourth birthday.

Fall Leaves

This cake was for my very good friends birthday, which happens to be today.

Portable Pies

Portable pies; only because I dont have a better name for them. I wanted to make a pie easy to handle. Pies you don't have to slice up and use plates and forks to eat. Pies you can stand around the kitchen and eat, like we did last night. Just wait until they cool, first. I used a simple apple pie recipe. Pie dough, granny smith apples mixed with brown sugar and allspice. I took a small amount of dough, rolled it out into a small circle and placed the apple mixture in the middle. Then I folded it in half and pressed the edges together with a fork and brushed them with some beaten egg. I placed them all into a baking dish and put them in the over at 380 degrees (or 385 degrees for Aron) and cooked them for about 20 -25 minutes. When they came out I glazed them with some brown sugar mixed with a little water to sweeten the top. The product of this experimental recipe was perfect. Portable pies. Easy to eat. No forks, no plates, no pie dishes.

Melt in your mouth yeast rolls

I came across this recipe while trying to replicate Logan's Roadhouse Buttery Yeast Rolls. I modified it some and these turned out to be so light, fluffy and buttery they almost melt in your mouth. I drizzled some honey over the top and they were so good, they could have been dessert.

Husband Approved Apple Pie.

This apple pie was DELICIOUS! My husband is not a big cake guy, but he loves Apple Pie. He said I nailed it with this one. He loved it.

Bad picture, good cake

I really need to get my camera fixed. This is the best picture I got of this cake for a friend's 28th birthday.


Ok, here's a better picture!

Tools of the trade that I can't live without

The wilton cake lifter: It keeps your cakes off the floor. I use this every time I make a cake.


This is the mesh tip bag for cleaning your piping/decorating tips. I've lost many tips down the garbage disposal and into the unknown in the dishwasher. You can also throw couplers, rings, and fondant cutters in these bags.
