We are back!

We are sorry for such a big gap in between blogs. Do to work schedules, big projects and orders, it's been a bit hard to juggle everything. Now that we are caught up with everything, we should be able to keep up with the blog.

First off which I think is big news, we did change the dog cookie recipe to make it healthier and better for dogs and puppies alike. We are now 100% cornmeal free. They are a little less crunchy but still just as tasty. Fun fact, one of our dogs drools like crazy when he sees them.

We had a big cake order for a sweet 16 which was A Nightmare Before Christmas cake which included fondant work and delicious marzipan. Also with an order of a dozen chocolate cupcakes with a pumpkin spice butter cream. I got very good feedback on both.

Planing for this cake took over a month from concept, to getting supplies, to the two days of the baking production/ assembling. It was a very fun yet nerve wrecking process since I don't have much fondant experience and I am not that fond of it either. To me fondant is like the stilettos of baking, they both look fabulous but have negative results on your body. I prefer the taste of butter cream any day. The cake was pretty detailed. We even carved faces into the pumpkins made of marzipan and words on the tombstones. Overall, I was somewhat satisfied on how the cake turned out.




















One more thing, we will be doing another treat give away in September, if you have a rescue group that you would like to be in the drawing, let us know.
