A little about me...

They say you can't have your cake and eat it too... Well, I say you CAN!

Hi my name is Dottie. I am a wife, mother and baker.

I love cake. And even more than I love cake, I LOVE frosting. Put us together and something magical happens! I love trying new recipes and flavors!

Feathers and Bows



This cake was for my best friends daugher - last year she had a shoebox and purse cake - this year, now she's turning 9, we needed something slightly more sophisicated :) It turned out darling! Vanilla cakes with coconut/carmel/chocolate buttercream. One of my favorite flavors!
Happy Birthday Robbie!

For the graduate...



This was a german chocolate-style cake, 10" round, for a lovely young lady graduating from college.

Funky Birthday



This funky cake was so much fun! Vanilla cakes with strawyberry cream in the middle.

Olivia the Pig



Ok, not to pat myself on the back - but this cake turned out so cute! I even used my newly-found sculpting abilities and made Olivia out of fondant! The ears are my favorite :) This was a 6" and 8" round vanilla cake with cream cheese frosting. Happy Birthday Zellie!

Wilton Classes



I am so excited to annouce I will be teaching the Wilton Courses (which have been re-vamped!) at Kitchen Kneads in Logan, starting in May. These courses are so much fun - whether you want to learn how to professionally decorate a cake, or just hang out with your mom or sisters for a couple hours a week, these classes are perfect! Check out www.Luv2cook.com for class schedules and remember to book your spot early as they fill up quickly! Hope to see you there!

Tulle cute!



This has to be the cutest cake I have done to date! For a sweet little one-year-old, the top layer was a 6" round chocolate cake with raspberry cream filling and the second layer a 10" round vanilla cake with coconut buttercream, drizzled with caramel and chocolate, the bottom layer was fake covered in a tulle tutu. I don't think you can quite tell from the pic, but it was a pretty big cake :) Complete with a fondant bow on top, and a standing "1" on the second layer. Happy Birthday!

Matching the Invite



This cake is for a baby shower, Winnie the Pooh themed, but the cake was decorated in the same theme as the shower invitation. I think it turned out darling! 6" Chocolate Cake filled with cream cheese frosting and vanilla buttercream, with fun fondant decor. Happy Baby!
