Buddy Dog and Butterfly Birthday Cake

Tuesday, March 31st, 2009

On a warm Saturday evening, I brought the Buddy Dog and Butterfly cake to dinner at The Counter in Santana Row. My family finally had an evening all together just after my Mom and nephew’s birthday. My nephew wanted his dog in cake and my mom loves butterflies, so we had Buddy looking at the butterfly to bring the two pieces together.

After a long day of making cakes, it was great to relax at The Counter with the family. We had the fries and onion rings as a starter, and then big, delicious custom order burgers. I usually wouldn’t eat such a large burger, but I savored every last bite.

My nephew had fun playing with his dog when we were waiting for our meal. Who says you can’t play with your food?

Keep Rockin’ iPod Birthday Cake

Monday, March 16th, 2009

Everyone now has some version of the iPod. They’re sleek, stylish, and hold a ton of songs for their small size.

Amy has a rockin’ dad. She picked eight of the songs he loves, and that they both enjoy together. Rockin’ with your daughter is one way to stay young. Happy Birthday!

St. Patrick’s Day Cake

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

This weather lately has produced some incredible rainbows. Amy and I were driving the curving overpass on Charcot Avenue to Guadalupe Parkway, and just while we were in the air, a huge rainbow appeared. The rainbow was almost right on top of us, seeming to move with us on the curve. Then just as suddenly as it appeared, and right when I was wondering about that pot of gold and what I would do with it, it was gone.

The cake version has a brilliant rainbow with a belted hat, shamrock, and a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Of course that’s chocolate coins. They shine as bright as gold!

What would you do with a pot of gold?
