Where it all began...

I think back to when I was young and I can always remember my Mom hosting great Birthday Parties for me and my siblings.  There were always fun games and a great cake.   I remember searching through my mom's party book to pick a different fun shaped cake each year.   This book from the 70's, sits in her recipe book cupboard above the stove, to this day.















I always enjoyed helping my mom organize ideas for my parties, but I don't think I realized just how much I love party planning until my own two boys were born.   Over the years as they have gotten older, my party planning has become all encompassing.  We pick a theme, and everything revolves around it, from invites, to decor, to food and loot bags.  The center piece is usually the cake.

My blog will take a journey back to when i began planning these parties, and show how far I have come with my cake decorating.  Now that I have found my passion in making fondant covered cakes, I will also use this  blog to showcase the cakes I am thrilled to be making for my own kids, friends and family.
