10th Anniversary Cake

My husband and I celebrated our 10th anniversary last week!

I wanted to bake him his favorite raspberry flavored cake. It needed to look romantic and simple, and anniversary-ish. :) I was happy with how it turned out, and the raspberry cake with raspberry buttercream is really soooo delicious.

Wouldn't this be such a pretty Valentine's Day gift?

Little Valentine's Day Cakes

I adore these cute little Valentine's Day cakes I made this morning - one was ordered from me, but once I made it I wanted to make more! I love that they are just the right size for the special treat for the one you love!

Valentine's Day Cookie Bouquets

I made and sold these Valentine's Day cookies this year. I think they were a huge hit! These soft homemade cookies are made from the best ingredients using a delicious family recipe. The frosting is an almond butter glaze. Having the cookies on sticks gives a fun, whimsical effect that is sure to bring a smile to anyone's face! I had one customer quote, "These are the best sugar cookies I think I've ever had in my life!"

Although I made these particular cookies for Valentine's Day, I think cookie bouquets are so cute and so delicious that they have potential for almost any occasion! Birthdays, anniversaries, office gatherings, congratulations, thank you gifts, baby or wedding showers, Christmas... the possibilities are limitless!
