BAKING CAMPS

Kids will enjoy a fun hands-on experience that may spark a lifelong love of baking!

DAY 1: FLORAL CUPCAKES
Learn how to read recipes, measure ingredients and mix cake batter, and an introduction to pastry bag and piping skills. Kids will decorate and go home with cupcakes iced in colorful buttercream flowers.
DAY 2: CHOCOLATE
Learn the basics of working with chocolate. Bake mini chocolate tortes, learn to ice with white chocolate ganache, glaze with warm dark chocolate ganache and adorn them with modelling chocolate roses and leaves. Save room for a decadent dessert on this night!
DAY 3: FONDANT
Learn how to color, shape, mold and cut out designs with fondant. Each child will cover a real 6" cake with fondant and decorate it using fondant and edible paint. They will also start to make plans for the big Cupcake Wars competition!
DAY 4: CUPCAKE WARS
Just like the hit TV show, kids will team up and create their very own cupcake recipes and designs using the skills they learned at camp. They will even get to decorate a special stand for their cupcakes to be displayed. In celebration, we will have a (homemade!) pizza party and every child will get to taste each team's cupcakes. Their special guests will arrive at the very end to judge cupcakes on best taste, appearance, originality and presentation.
JUNIOR CAKESTRAVAGANZA CAMP is for (rising) 1st graders to 4th graders, and is perfect for kids who love to use their hands, be creative and artistic, and have fun in the kitchen with friends. Kids will get to learn about ingredients, the basics of measuring, mixing and baking, and of course lots of beginner decorating skills using both fondant and buttercream. This camp is best suited for kids who have the interest, want to try new things and are able to sit still for long periods. We will introduce your child to the wonderful world of cake in the most delicious and fun ways possible!
Minimum of 6 campers required and must be registered by 1 week before start of camp.

Wedding Cakes
Wedding cakes are the main focus of my business and therefore occupy most of my time. I book up quickly during the wedding season, so it is best to reserve the date on my calendar at least 6 months in advance. Prices start at $5/serving (minimum of $500 for orders placed more than 4 months in advance). Please email or call me for more information and to set up a tasting.
These galleries are made up of photos of my work dating back to as far as 2004, and they are updated monthly.

Groom's Cakes
The groom's cake used to be considered a southern thing (think armadillo cake in Steel Magnolias), but now it is popular at weddings throughout the country. Usually served at the rehearsal dinner or an addition to the bride's wedding cake at the reception, it is most often playfully designed to match the groom's interests. It's a fun way to get the groom involved in wedding planning or it's the perfect surprise for him. Pricing variable - minimum $500 for orders placed more than 4 months in advance.
