I wish I had thought of this…

Only a handful of people reading this will understand it (namely those people from my hometown).  I was browsing my favorite website the other day, www.cakecentral.com, and I randomly came across this picture:

This cake is an exact replica of a popular hamburger/hotdog place in the Tri-Cities called “Pals.”  And yes the building really does look like that!  When I was growing up it was always the joke around town to guess what color the Pals building would be next.  It seemed like they changed the paint color every week.  They have the best “frenchie” fries; Kevin and I always stop there when we go home.  In fact this picture is making me crave some Pals right now!  So hopefully my Johnson City friends and family will get a kick out of this.

FYI- I am going to stop doing my “Cake Catalogue” on this blog…Kevin suggested I transfer it to the blog on
www.artbytheslicecakes.com.  That is the official business website, and it makes more sense to write about my cakes there.  So check it out and I will try to post new pictures soon.

Cake Catalogue #13

Here is a baby shower cake with cute animals.  It might look like a random design at first, but it was patterned after the nursery bedding this lady is using:

Below is a picture of the nursery bedding.  As you can see I added the “B” for baby just to be cute =)

Cake Catalogue #12

Fall cake for a Southern Living Party.

I promise one of these days I will talk about something else besides cake.  But right now that and school are my life.
Busy, busy!

Cake Catalogue #11

One year old birthday cake.  She had her party on Halloween, and the theme was candy corn.

Cake Catalogue #10

Made these basket cakes for my two schools for Halloween.
Outside was made of kit-kat bars, inside has whipped peanut butter icing, topped with Reece’s pieces.
Let’s just say it was rich =)
