shoe and purse cake

This was a recent cake I did for a 13th birthday party. Instead of making all the purses and shoes out fondant/gumpaste, I used ornaments from my master bedroom Christmas tree with the same theme.  I would never be able to get that level of detail at that scale. It was a win-win... easier for me and cheaper for my client. Happy 13th, Victoria!!!

national root beer float day

My favorite - Root Beer!!! The only thing better than a root beer float would be a root beer float cocktail! I was recently introduced to Three-Olive's Root Beer Vodka and loved it!  Now, I'm thinking I should try this...
