Updated pic on the Littlest Sweet Bite

Here is the most recent picture of our lil peanut! This one was taken at 13 weeks, so about 3 weeks ago! Baby had given us a huge scare around that time, but everything turned out to be ok. One trip to the ER, and a trip to my Dr. the next day turned up to be a sub-chorionic hemorrhage behind the placenta, but wasn't anywhere near the placenta or the baby so all was well! Just a bit of bed rest and we are good as new!

I got to hear the heart beat a week later and we were actually able to find it on the doppler! yay! I'll post more updates as they come :)

ooooo.....Cheesecake!

Let me just say, I have never made a cheesecake completely from scratch before. I've always been slightly intimidated by the concept. Which is ridiculous seeing as I've made way more difficult cakes than this before! So, when I was asked to make a cheesecake for a baby shower, I was nervous!!

I made a small mistake along the way, but this cheesecake came out sooooo yummy that I just cannot wait to make another one!!!!


My mistake was overfilling the springform pan. It caused the cheesecake to rise well above the pan and crack around the edges and across the middle. Never the less, it was still tasty.
And to make up for some of the cracking, I decorated it with some dark chocolate and strawberries! YUM!




Flower pops!

It's been pretty busy around here, but my main reason for not posting pictures is because alot of the orders I've been working on, you've already seen them! I like to try and post more when something new is created. However, in saying that, here are some flower pops I did recently for a mother's birthday. The request was for flower pops and to be arranged in a flower/window box. I thought this was a great idea! Here is what I came up with.


Aren't they adorable! You almost don't even want to eat them!

It's been a while....

It's been a while since my last post, and for that I must appologize to my fans and loyal readers.Since my last post, I have been very busy! I wasn't feeling well for the last part of May and early June, and then when I did feel better, I got swamped with lots and lots of baking projects. One project in particular has been most special to me....



Yup! That's right! I am having my own little Sweet Bite! ;) The picture above was taken at 8 weeks, and the picture below at 12 weeks.
My hubby and I are super excited about our little bundle of joy and can't wait to meet him or her in January!!
