Football!

Cupcakes with fondant footballs to celebrate T's 9th Birthday






Best Ever Vanilla Cake with Chocolate Ganache Cream shaped into a Gray Hawks' Football Helmet...

Where have I been?!?

That is a very good question. Absent! Busy baking lollis! It was a crazy, insane, but very successful holiday season. ~ 2000 lollis - lots of flour, sugar, butter, eggs, chocolate and lollipop sticks! Thank you to everyone who ordered and enjoyed our lollis. In my next post I will share some of the wonderful comments we received in response to our lolli shipments. Our website is almost ready - coming soon to a computer near you. Watch for the announcement!


These assorted beauties went into some of our Thanksgiving bouquets


Teacups made for a special event Langham Hotels International held in NYC to celebrate the grand reopening of the Langham London


Hmmm. What could these chocolate turkeys have been for? Thanksgiving! Chocolate lollis with colored licorice for the tail feathers, chocolate fondant heads and a small piece of licorice for the waddle. YUM


My son said - "Mom, Thanksgiving isn't just about turkey - IT IS ABOUT FOOTBALL!" - so I made some footballs as well. I think this design will also come in handy for the SUPERBOWL. Don't you?!

Birthday PRETZELS!

My son was so enthralled with the chocolate shells I made for a cake a couple months ago - he decided chocolate was definitely the treat he wanted to bring to school for his birthday. I found these great molds that allow you to use a pretzel as the lollipop stick. PERFECTION. Chocolate, pretzels and a nod to his favorite sport - FOOTBALL!

Football and Whimsical Pink & Green

This cake was for a 9 year old who wanted a football cake. I decided a NY Giants football helmet was the way to go... my husband walked in and said "wow, that's a cool cake.... I thought they like the Jets." At which point I almost had a nervous breakdown. I made a phone call, felt relieved and poured myself a celebratory glass of wine. It was the correct team!




A whimsical "50" for an al fresco birthday dinner. The only thing that the birthday girl said she wanted was one of my cakes! I was very honored! The cake was "I remember chocolate" with a German Chocolate pecan and coconut filling. Decor was green and pink whimsy!



This "Best Ever Vanilla" was a surprise for a birthday girl returning home from college for the summer. It featured hot pink flowers with light pink centers and green foliage. Happy Birthday Amanda!
