I Guess I'm Not Very Good At This Blogging Thing!

It has been months and months without a post!  I'm not sure if I'm too busy or too lazy but honestly it's probably a little bit of both.  This is a little bit of what I have been up to in 2013.

This is the second time I was lucky enough to make the cover of Cake Central Magazine.  I had some really great people to work with including Barnett Photography, Classic Creations Floral Design and Vintage Origami.

It's been too long....

Well I haven't posted for months so at the very least I should post a few of the cakes I have done since last summer.  Happy holidays!

My Feature in Cake Central Magazine

I finally get to share my secret project!  As I was headed to bed one night in July I checked my email, to my surprise I had been asked by Cake Central Magazine to submit photos of a grey and cream cake with a less is more theme.  I jumped at the opportunity!  I was given some inspirational photos to work from and this is the end result.  I was lucky enough to have Barnett Photography of Kelowna, BC take these wonderful photos of my cake.  They did a brilliant job of capturing the simple, classic look that I was going for.  I didn't know until today that we would be featured on the cover as well, it was a fantastic surprise.  To see my feature and the other photos of the cake you can download a copy of the magazine here.  In a few weeks I will be able to show you many more pictures myself :)

A huge thank you to Josh and Carly Barnett and to Christina of Classic Creations Floral Design for the beautiful bouquet.    I highly recommend both these businesses especially if you are planning a wedding in the Okanagan.

Exciting News

In the next couple of weeks I will be able to share some exciting news about a project I have been working on.  It has be a lot of fun to work with Barnett Photography on this project as they are not  only fantastic photographers but great people too.  I have also almost hit 10000 views on the blog!  Maybe my news will put me over the top :)
I hope you all are having a great summer!

Here are a couple of my latest cakes.

The Weddings of 2012

It has been a whirl wind of a summer so far but it is great to be busy.  Here are a few pictures of the cakes, cupcakes and cake pops that I have made for the 2012 wedding season.

These next few photos were taken by a brilliant woman named Yuriko.  Her company is Vintage Origami out of Kelowna, BC and her work is amazing!  She has a large selection of vintage rentals and can put together a beautiful settings for a wedding.  I highly suggest you check out her page here.  She always make my cakes look a million times better!
