School Day Surprise!

Brand new customer, Tamara, asked me to make a batch of cupcakes for her kids as a little School Day Surprise! Her daughter wanted Hello Kitty and her son, Legos. You see, cupcakes can really make someone feel special!

Happy First Birthday!

Surf's up! It was such a pleasure to make these cupcakes for new customer, Chrissy. Her son turned ONE and she went with a surfing beach theme. Watch out for the sharks!

Sum Sum Sum Sum Sum Sum Summertime!

In the Summer of 2012,I was asked to make cupcakes to kick off the summer. It's now 2013, and I was asked to make Summer cupcakes for a Block Party just as it's coming to an end. Lindsay, a loyal customer, contacted me and gave me specific colors and selected items for the theme and I loved her idea about a red solo cup! So clever, so witty!

Tickled Pink!

Repeat customer, Karen, contacted me because she and her friends were having a small party for themselves and their daughters and the theme is PINK! A little pre party just before school starts. I love the idea that everything would be pink and fun. The menu consists of a watermelon salad, shrimp cocktail, pink lemonade, pasta in pink sauce, etc....The girls will munch on these little girlie pink Babycakes while the adult moms enjoy champagne cupcakes! A sweet and delightful way to spend a Friday night in the summer!

Follow me, I'll feed you cupcakes!

Made my second promo book recently and really love to see the beautiful creations I've made over the past few years and it feels so good to tap into my creativity and it makes so many kids, parents and friends happy! I've had this blog for a few years now, I document everything I've baked from the very beginning and if you've followed me, you can see how far I've come. Every order, big or small gets its story told here on Babycakes, the blog. Some of my customers have even told me they print it out as part of the keepsake of the event. It's a great starting point too for deciding on a design and seeing what I can do. Thank you so much for the support you've shown if you are not new to the blog. It has meant so much to me and I know who you are! If you are new to this blog, please take a minute to "follow" me. It would be great to gain some momentum and some support.

Good Luck Tom!

My friend Michele is so thoughtful. I can tell you first hand what a pleasure it is to work with her and how much she contributes not only to the task at hand but to the moral of the people she works beside. Her office manager is moving on, starting a new career path as a carpenter and she wanted to make sure that he knew how much he'd be missed. It's a wonderful feeling to know you matter to someone and my friend Michele knows just how to convey to Tom how much he's been appreciated, and wish him all the best in his new endeavor!

Riley's Drive In Party!

There's a swanky little theatre in Bayside, NY called "Riley's Drive In." The guests at Riley's SEVENTH Birthday Party were treated to feature film, Cars as they sat in their little custom cardboard cars and ate popcorn under the stars. Riley's Mom, Korrine is so creative. She found some ideas on a blog and had her backyard transformed into a drive in theatre to celebrate Riley's big day. It was so much fun making a dual theme of movies and Cars for the cupcakes. She promised pictures and hoping I can add more of what it all looked like after she posts some. I love home parties with the attention to detail and creativity! I say this birthday was a blockbuster!
