Fun With Cake

Tomorrow is Katy's birthday!!! Yea Katy! Welcome to your upper 20's! It sucks, but you're gonna love it! So, when deciding what kind of tasty treat to make for Katy's big day, I immediately thought of cake. Cake is something that Katy and I share a passion for. :)

I've been on a big cupcake kick lately, but thought I'd try something new. I found this recipe on my absolute favorite blog, the hyper homemaker. The blog has since gone away (I'm really sad!) but luckily I printed the directions for these yummies. If you've ever had cake truffles you know the concept. Its pretty much a cake mixed with frosting then shaped and dipped into melted candy. These just happen to be shaped like flowers then stuck on sticks. They make a super cute little arrangement and taste like crack.


Funniest picture ever! I swear, Ari did not get a bite! The best part of these treats is that there are a lot of "duds" that fall off the stick or break apart in the candy. That means I'm forced to eat the rejects! :)

I had to drop these off tonight since I wasn't sure they'd make it until tomorrow in that arrangement. We'll celebrate tomorrow too! Katy is my new neighbor so dropping in is super easy! I love PV! Everyone should move here.
Today also happens to be Ari's birthday! Check out the birthday festivities at my other blog http://www.kcdogblogger.blogspot.com/. Can you believe he's two years old today??? My baby is so grown up!
