A blog full of sweets and treats that are delicious, fun and simple to create.
When I made my most recent batch of Pink Velvet Cupcakes, I just had to break out the zebra striped cupcake liners that have been waiting to be put to use. Hot pink, black and white – love it. And if you are using hot pink, black and white, it kind of just calls out for a bit of Hello Kitty… I make up for my lack of cake decorating skills by using massive amounts of colorful sprinkles. Pretty in {Read More}
In my last post I talked about some of the ways I keep my cake pops simple and easy to make. For me, one of the best ways to keep my treats simple and easy to make (while still being relatively cute) is to keep my kitchen stocked with a few “essential” items. Let me share with you a few of the things I try to always have on hand… I’m not the most organized person, and for any ounce {Read More}
While I love to bake, and think I can make some pretty tasty treats, a baked goods decorator I am not. I will never be able to turn cakepops into art like Bakerella, decorate cakes like Sprinkle Bakes or decorate a cookie like Sugarbelle or Sweetopia. So what’s a non decorating baker to do? Basically, just fake it. Colorful sprinkles and candies can go a long way in making your treats look cute. Here are some cake pops that I {Read More}
I was possibly a bit too tired when I posted the recipe for the Pink Ribbon Pink Velvet Cupcakes last night because I forgot a small detail (luckily it wasn’t something like adding eggs to the recipe). When I was picking up my pink ribbon baking supplies, I picked some up for YOU! Pink Ribbon cupcake liners, pink ribbon sprinkles and a pink ribbon cookie cutter. You can create your own sweet Pink Ribbon treats to help raise money for {Read More}
When I came across a giant bag of pumpkin shaped marshmallows at the store, it was clear to me that they needed to be made into chocolate covered marshmallow pops. Another quick, easy no bake treat – while it may technically be Fall, it’s still over 100 degrees here in AZ, so no bake treats are the way to go. You need marshmallows, lollipop sticks, melting chocolate such as Wilton Melts, sprinkles and cute little sugar decorations. Start with your {Read More}
I often get asked where I get my sprinkles and decorating supplies from. I am super lucky to live near an AMAZING baking supply store, ABC Baking / Cakearts. It truly is like a toy store (well, candy store!) for bakers. I have to limit my visits, because I can go a wee bit overboard. I know that not every body is as fortunate, so I’ve looked around online to find some other options. I haven’t shopped from any of {Read More}
While making my way through Target this morning I picked up some Nestle Pink & Yellow Mixed Mini Morsel Toppers in the Easter section. Of course I opened them as soon as I got home, and holy heck they are CUTE! Adorable! So many ways to use them, think I’m going to have to go back and grab a few more containers while the Easter goodies are still available. I also found some white mini morsel toppers on clearance. For {Read More}
Happy Friday! With my husband working from home today, I thought I would take advantage of having the ability to visit my local baking supply – ABC Cake Decorating Supply – without a baby and stroller in tow. With Valentine’s Day and birthdays for both my girls coming up, this baking mama needed to replenish her sprinkle stock. ABC is located in downtown Phoenix and I’ve probably been visiting it for close to 20 years. They have everything you could {Read More}
