Today I’m sharing an old recipe I that I’ve been using for years, so glad to finally get it on the blog – my go to vanilla butter cake. Have I ever told you I have a cake phobia – it’s true, I do. Which may seem slightly insane considering my official job title is “sprinkle […]
Our twins celebrated their 5th birthday a few days ago…please can we not talk about how they are ALREADY five. Since we’re not celebrating with a party for another month yet, I had free roam when picking birthday treats for school. Well, as free roam as it gets when you have two opinionated 5-year-olds breathing […]
I hope you don’t mind if I get a little emoji-nal on you today. Ok not really, I just wanted to use that cheesy pun. But I am pretty excited to share these emoji cookies with you? Why? Because I tried something new to me, fondant covered cookies! I’m a little guilty of getting too […]
Unfortunately, things aren’t always sprinkles and fluffy frosting around here, oh how I wish they were but sometimes things get messy, you know life happens.

Can I just start off by saying…what on earth do you title a blog post that consists of Valentine sugar cookies which are actually chocolate valentine sugar cookies, that are made to look like a box of chocolates, which are actually topped with chocolate.

Last week I shared with you guys a fun new Daisy Cookie Bouquet, I had a blast making them. After all edible flowers are the best kind of flowers! But while I was photographing them I thought, man why didn’t I stick these in a cake…or even made dirt pudding in the pot? I just […]
It’s true, April showers bring May flowers! Unless you live in the desert and you haven’t seen rain but once in six months, then you bake some sugar cookie flowers! Plus as I’ve said 100 times…the only green thumb I have comes from food coloring. So even if we weren’t currently living in the desert, […]
You know what I love about blogging? Well besides like everything of course. I love that it constantly pushes me to stretch my abilities, creativity, flavor palate…you get the point. Can you believe that I use to think I didn’t like lemon treats? I know, I know, who doesn’t like lemon? It’s like saying you […]
Hey sweet friends! Remember back in October I posted some really fun Halloween pinwheel cookies? They quickly became one of your favorite posts, and I don’t blame you guys because they are a favorite here as well. As soon as I made them I really wanted to try some Christmas Pinwheel Cookies in bright Christmas colors…and here they […]
Call a shrink, I have dessert commitment issues. This weekend I was going to bake some yummy fall flavored treats…and today I was going to post all about buttercream neither of which I did.
