Looking For Something?

About Me

I am NOT a chef, culinary student, professional pastry chef or any other formally trained food manipulator. I am the co-owner of Crucial Element Productions and CAKE! Dessert Design Studio. I can plan it, cook it, bake it and make it look pretty. Did I mention I love to eat?! If they had a 12 step program for Cakaholism I'd probably need about 15 to kick the habit. Decided to let my addiction become my pastime and eventually my paycheck.

CAKE! Loves the Kids

On Friday June 4th Julius Bellamy, co-owner of CAKE!DDS spoke to 2nd graders from Lincoln Elementary School for their annual career day. According to the teachers the purpose of career day is to give the students a chance to familiarize themselves with various career and begin to think about what they would want their ideal career to be in the future.

Mr Bellamy spoke about the art of cake baking, design, and the fun of being your own boss. The kids were more than ready for him with questions ranging from food allergies to what's the craziest cakes to his marital status. The presentation finished up with a mini slideshow of some of CAKE!s favorite creations and cookie samples for everyone.

Rumor has it the kids voted it as their favorite presentation!

Capoeira

For those of you who were chomping at the bit to catch a glimpse of the capoeira cake here it is.

The top layer is chocolate cake with oreo frosting and the bottom layer is yellow cake with strawberry filling and vanilla icing. And of course we make everything from scratch.

Ok, so it didn't turn out as amazing as I had hoped due to some unforseen circumstances but hey it happens. And it still tasted great.

My kids better never say I don't love them lol. There's photographic proof.
