This was a BUSY weekend! There was a first birthday cake (with a dozen cupcakes too), a big baptism cake and 2 dozen cupcakes for a 4th of July celebration! This coming week will be busy too…a birthday cake for my son and my first wedding cake!
This cake was awesome!! Everyone at the party commented on how wonderful it looked and then when we ate it, everyone was yet again impressed at how tasty and moist it was!!! Thank you, Emily for making my son’s cake and first birthday so special and memorable!!! ~Jennifer Flanagan
We wanted to thank you for the beautiful cake for Zachary’s baptism. It looked great and tasted even better! I love decorating cakes myself but now with three kids I can’t ever imagine having the time it takes to complete ones like I did when my girls were little. I’m sure we’ll be in touch with you again for future celebrations. ~Nicole Lowe
