Lemon Blueberry Layer Cake
Happy Birthday to me! It’s a little strange that I make my own birthday cake every year but it’s the only way I can guarantee it’s what I want and tastes amazing. I wanted to make a lemon and blueberry layer cake since before I started the blog and three years later I finally found the time.
{Magazine Review} Martha Stewart Cakes & Cupcakes
I let a squeal of delight when I got an email from the Martha Stewart team asking me if I would like to review a special edition of Martha Stewart Living. As a dessert blogger and wannabe crafter Martha is a huge inspiration. I even wrote one of my business papers in college on her.
Valentine’s Day Black & White Cookies
First, I’m going to say this post is longer than usual but don’t worry the recipe for the cookies is at the end. I like to think that I have a of potential and I’m pretty focused in my life. Great job, nice husband and a fun hobby all keep my life pretty busy. At this point in my life I don’t think I could ask for more but could I do even greater things? I was recently invited to a class at The School of Life about How to Realize Your Potential.
Peppermint Swirl Marshmallows

True Blood Cake

Lemon Fudge Cake

Candy Bar Bars
I hoard a lot of baking ingredients. I buy in bulk when I go to the US and if there is a handful of chocolate chips left in a bag I’ll save them. As a result I have about 10 bags with a few chips left in each.
