Life... Is A Beach...

My Mom loves two things above all others (besides me and my sister of course)...

The Beach.... And Ginger....(yes... ginger candy yuck!)

So, for her Birthday party I decided I would surprise her with a new creation... So I ran to the store and bought two bags of candied ginger... ginger cookies... and powdered ginger....
And decided to get started with her Beach cake :)

Let me start explaining each aspect of this cake :)

Classic chair... Mom just loves to sit and watch the waves. When we were little we would take our chairs to the water and just watch the waves for the day...
Chair is gumpaste....

After much trial and error, Iwas able to make ginger sand... Yes... lol
The sand is made of an old fashioned ginger snap crushed, and mixed with sugars and ginger...

There is no beach for Mom without a Volly ball. Mom and I both share in the love for Volley!

Each of the small shells and starfish were hand moulded as well

And I also (Because I would never use ginger) made some ginger cookies which, I tasted and tasted rather awesome!

Happy Birthday Mommy Cupcake!

Ed Hardy... Turns 16 :)

Tanya contacted us about a cake for her Sister's Sweet 16...
And I was beyond excited when I realised it was time for yet another "Bag" cake!!!

Close up of the straps

Nothing is printed, everything is hand painted and cut :)

To go with them were some of mom's sugar cookies!

Falling in Love for Fall

Christina, who happens to be one of our sweetest customers in the world... contacted us about helping to create her dessert table... and we were so happy to do it!

The picture above is the front of Christina's Cake... can you guess what it is?

A Tree Stump! All edible of course! Pumpkins and leaves are all made by hand, as well as the chocolate fondant (yes yummy) tree!

The cake was a German Chocolate cake filled with Peanut Butter Buttercream (And we only use the best! Organic Peanut Butter and Co Maple Peanut Butter)

To go with the dessert table, we got to use some of Little Mrs Cupcake's fall Cookies:

And our newest edition to the Love and Sprinkles Family: Mini brownie Cakes!
This is a chocolate brownie, covered and sculpted into a pumpkin!

Mini German Chocolate cupcakes,with cookies and Cream frosting

And since we forgot to take pictures...

We wish Christina and Scott an AMAZING rehearsal and best wishes for your beautiful future!

Wonder Pet's Treasure Hunt... for cookies!

My Little one is OBSESSED with Wonderpets... as well as cookies!

So, Since he turned one, it was about time for a "Milk and Cookies" party!

My "Birthday Fly Boat"

We went a little haywire...
The cake was a russian baku Chocolate Raspberry layer cake
And was decorated Wonder Pets Treasure hunt Theme!

And On to the COOKIES AND MILK BUFFET!
Cookies and Milk Oatmeal Fondant Covered Cookies:

The Full Buffet:

 The Cookie Buffet Theme comes together!

Dark Chocolate Fondant Sand Dollar Cookies:

Cookies and Cream Themed Cupcake Favours!

Sprinkles for Sprinkles :)

A few girl friends have this tradition...
Every time one of us becomes pregnant, we get together, shower them with gifts, laugh, play games... and eat cake :)

So, I tested my new fondant recipe... New Raspberry Cake Recipe.... And new Raspberry filling recipe on the girls...


I wasn't too happy with the new fondant recipe... The first cake... exploded! The fondant melted off the cake after being refrigerated ant there I was at 4am making another batch... this time with just a little more cream added...

They always say "don't mess with a good thing" and so... I decided I would stick to our old fashioned Marshmallow fondant!

Congratulations to the Mommies... Ally, Kerri and Jess... who each delivered their healthy, beautiful little girls not too long ago!

God Bless Lucas!

Lucas' mom contacted us about a last minute cake for her son's communion...

And we were so very excited when we heard the theme!

Although this is probably the LONGEST I ever worked on a cake (See the rosary? well, I have a major obsession with detail and needed to have each the exact same size!)

So, I decided to make the cake thicker and higher so that the cake looked more like a cloud...

The cake was our organic vanilla bean cake with vanilla fluff filling.
The cross is made of sugarpaste, as well as the clouds...

And I have to throw in one more picture of this little angel:

Congratulations Lucas!

Amanda Picone Photography... Does it again!

I Know, I sound like a broken record...
But Amanda has done it again...
Those of you who remember my son's "Smash The Cake" shoot know of her... well... She also did a holiday mini-session and I was lucky enough to be a part of it!

And this was just a teaser!

Along with the shoot, Dean's future wife played hard to get!! (LOVE HER)

Now, I know these aren't cakes... But what can be more sweet than two little one year olds running around like this?

Rehearsal hits a hole in one... or... a goal :)

Dana contacted us about a cake and cupcakes for her Fiance Steven. She wanted them to be at her rehearsal dinner.

She asked us to incorporate his two favorite sports... Hockey and Golf...

So, we created a Chocolate cake that was shaped like a hockey puck... along with chocolate cupcakeswith golf balls on the green!

Dana and Steven have since shared their vows, so Little Mrs Cupcake would like to wish them a lifetime of happiness...
And Sweets!
