Easter Egg Cookies

I really love making sugar cookies. So I'm always excited to get a cookie order! This past week got an order to make some Easter egg sugar cookies. I had a lot of fun making the colorful patterns on each cookie.
Didn't they turn out pretty?
And, seriously, I love this recipe. These cookies are really, really yummy.

Sugar cookies are $12/dozen. Order some for your special occasion! They can even be personalized with names or messages.

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!

Mummy Cake

I made this little mummy cake for my daughter's Halloween party.
The kids LOVED it!
The cake is a chocolate fudge cake with a orange buttercream icing. The mummy wrappings and eyes were done with marshmallow fondant. I snuck a bite, and it was very yummy!
Happy Halloween!

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!

And look how cute they look after packaging:

Christmas Recital Cakes

I made these three cakes for my Christmas piano recital. The red cake was cherry chip flavored with vanilla frosting. The chocolate cake was chocolate fudge flavored covered with a rich chocolate frosting. The green cake was half cherry chip / half chocolate (my favorite, SO yummy!) and covered with a vanilla icing. I used a different texture for each cake, and was pleased with the results.

Christmas Cupcakes

Aren't these Christmas cupcakes fun? They were made with almond butter cake topped with almond butter frosting. The holly leaves were made of fondant.
