The secret ingredients for this challenge were:

Butterflies
Baby's name: Madison

Some lovely ladies wrote in and asked if I could whip up a custom cake for them with the aforementioned ingredients. I love challenges, so this was a lot of fun! I'm spent some time gathering up ingredients, and then sat down and got to work. You can see the final results by clicking the image above to go to our Flickr gallery. What do you think?

Thanks to the ladies who sent this order in. I hope your gift recipient enjoyed the surprise as much as I enjoyed making it!

Curious Cake Shoppe Cakes- Cute AND Structurally Sound!

One of our most recent gift recipients was an Engineer over at the Corp. The cake was presented to him at a baby shower, where I am told he very carefully picked it up. A smile crept upon his face as declared the cake "structurally sound." He complimented the cake's "reinforced structure," which was enjoyed by the Structural Section that had pooled together to purchase the gift for him and his wife.

So there you have it folks! The Curious Cake Shoppe Cakes are not only adorable, but structurally sound as deemed by the USACE (unofficially, of course).

This cake just made it to it's destination in San Antonio!

The Shoppe lost power last night (along with half of Dallas). Some pretty intense rain and tornado-esque winds keep us down for almost 7 hours, but we kept busy!



Consider it a sneak preview! ;)

We finished this custom cake last week, and frankly, we are a little smitten with it. It was a gift shipment that made it's way to it's destination today!

Sigh. Seems like just yesterday it was a pile of diapers. They grow up so fast.
