TRENTON'S BIRTHDAY.....SAFARI STYLE!

How lucky I am to keep meeting wonderful new people..... I couldn't feel more blessed and lucky! Yesterday, I had an order from a very talented lady by the name of Janean Bagley Lindner who I have been introduced to by a mutual friend. Her son Trenton was turning a big 15 years old yesterday and she wanted to celebrate with her and her family's favorite! Maybe that would be something lemony and something ....like in the form of a cupcake! Anyway, they were well received and I must let my customers know that Janean's photography is superb! Please visit her website as I am impressed with her talent. It is Gigglemoon Photography......and enjoy the captured beautiful moments!

The jungle was part of the theme and over the past few weeks, I have watched her plan and design invitations, make the birthday banner and put together numerous pom poms for the decor! Jessica is definitley on her way to becoming a stylist and event planner here very soon and I can't wait to see it when it happens!
I hope to see how it all came together last Saturday!

A BOUNTIFUL HARVEST!

Autumn brings heavenly spices and scents of fond memories of my Mom baking in the kitchen! The aroma of a hint of cinnamon in the apple pie, pumpkin with a splash of bourban, gingered pear, maple and all of those savory smells which are enough to make you drool anxiously as you wait for Mom to take the scrumptious pie from the oven. I love that warm comforting feeling of what Autumn brings! The joy of family and good friends......and the hearty joy of extravagant cooking!

A LITTLE STORY BOOK DONATION BASKET!

Once again, it's that awesome time of year where Ditzie Cakes likes to give a little towards it's favorite charity - The Camino Auxiliary! I can't believe that it has been three years since I have been introduced to such a great organization. For this auction, held at the Ritz Carlton on November 23rd.... I kept it simple. I wanted my future customer & winning bidder of this gift basket to create their own story! I included a "Little Brag Book" which captured about 20 pages or so showing the endless possibilities I had done for other customers. Hopefully this future winning bidder will be another sweet story to add to the Ditzie Cakes memoires! I am looking forward to meeting my winner..... Good luck and see you soon!!!!
