I love the message that Marlo’s mom wanted for Thomas the Train: Choo Choo Marlo’s 2! This Thomas the Train was made to look like a big mylar balloon that was outside the party house welcoming everyone to Marlo’s birthday party.
Happy Birthday Marlo!

Sometimes I wonder how our clients know us so well. Though we love cats and dogs and all animals here, for years we cannot talk about our closest primate without screaming the name. So here we go… MONKEYS!!!
Just like the fact that you can never have just one, here’s a roundup of the varied monkey cakes we’ve made.

This Saturday is the Tough Mudder fundraising party at the Cardiff Lounge benefiting the Wounded Warriors Project. I’ve been following my friend Denise’s incredible training for the Tough Mudder event in October. This is no ordinary race and the training she’s doing is just crazy! Here’s how they describe the Tough Mudder event on their website:
Tough Mudder is the TOUGHEST one day event on the planet. This is not your average mud run or boring, spirit-crushing road race. It’s Ironman meets Burning Man: our 7-12 mile obstacle courses are designed by British Special Forces to test all around toughness, strength, stamina, fitness, camaraderie, and mental grit. Forget about your finish time. This is about camaraderie, teamwork, and helping your fellow Mudders. Simply completing the event is a badge of honor. Not everyone will finish, but those who do make it to our post-event party will have truly earned the right to call themselves a Tough Mudder. All Tough Mudder sponsorship proceeds go to our exclusive charity partner, The Wounded Warrior Project.
I take my dog for leisurely walks every day. I would never even pretend to be able to do something like that! But we were just invited to donate a cake to the help “ASD Wolfpack“, Denise’s team, that’s tackling the challenge and hosting a fundraising party at the Cardiff Lounge this Saturday. Baking and decorating is the challenge we’re up for. And you could bid on a $195 gift certificate towards one of our cakes. Some of the other auction items include massages, wine, Sharks tickets, signed NFL memorabilia, and so much more.
The fundraising party sounds like a fun even with music, dancing, the silent auction, and special drinks for the occasion with proceeds going directly to the Wounded Warrior Project. So head to the Cardiff Lounge in Campbell on Saturday, September 11th from 6-8 pm. As the poster says, “Are you tough enough to party?”

I have so many fond memories of going to arcades in the ’80s playing the cool games as they came out. And what’s Rich’s favorite? Gyruss! I brought the Gyruss cake to Rich’s party and heard the guys also remembering their love of the arcades, debating the significance of Gyruss and other breakthrough video games. Was that the first one to come out with stereo sound? I could say that even contemplating things like new stereo sound makes me feel old (I hear that from so many of my friends) but I’d rather say we’ve come a long way, baby.
Kids today are playing Zombie Farm on their iPads, but if you want to make a new 40-years-old feel young again, you’ve gotta break out the old school arcade games. We’re as young as we feel, right?
Happy Birthday, Rich!

Nicholas celebrated his 5th birthday party at Danny the Dragon’s Picnic Place. Walking to the back of the park, we passed so many families with kids excited to see Buzz Lightyear and parents taking pictures. Many asked, “Is that a cake?” Yes, under the fondant was Devil’s Food cake with Vanilla Bean Buttercream.
It was so cute when after we place Buzz on the table, Nicholas was right at eye level to see his name on the sole of Buzz’s shoe (where Andy writes his name to claim his toys in the movie). Nicholas looked right to his friend to say “That’s my cake!” That’s right, Buzz came just for you Nicholas.
We’re still playing with the cool Flip that TLC gave us. Check out the cool laser light action on the cake.
Happy Birthday Space Ranger Nicholas!

So many families were crushed when they heard about the 5-alarm fire that burned a few buildings at our local Merritt Trace Elementary School during the summer. With just a few clicks on Facebook and a mere minute of your time, you can vote to have Kohl’s give $500,000 to the school. You even get 5 votes that you can give this one school. What a powerful way to start your morning, right? I sincerely appreciate your efforts to help our school.
Thanks!
