Creativity has not always been my strong point. I had always been more athletic. When my oldest turned 10 and my youngest 5 (two weeks apart) I decided that I would try to make their cakes. My son's cake was a mystery theme and my daughters a princess theme..I decided then while it was more satisfying to make my own creations I did not really enjoy it. Over the years I made cakes for all three of my kiddos, and occasionally for other people. I mostly felt stressed and overly critical of my work.

Last summer I decided for my son's 16th birthday I was going to go all out for his big birthday bash. Ahhh that must have been fueled by the boredom that came from loosing my full time job. I created a DJ turn table cake that was complete with a cake stand that had working LED lights and a revolving disco ball (made by my husband)! I have been busy decorating cakes since then.
I am completely self taught, I have never taken any classes. If I want to learn something I ask the people I know who can give me advice. I read books and do Internet research.......Oh and lots of trial and errors :)
I now love decorating cakes, and coming up with new flavors and fillings!
I have decided to create a blog to share my learning experiences and cakes.
