Wild Wedding Week

Posted on Mar 07, 2010 under Cakes | No Comment

Okay so remember in the previous post where I said that my cake business wasn’t keeping me busy all the time?  Well since I wrote that things have completely changed.  I am now being flooded with requests, which is great!  It’s mostly due to the fact that I made a cake for one of Kevin’s friends at work and apparently she knows people =)  Also Kevin signed Art by the Slice up on Facebook and Twitter.  (Facebook I get…Twitter I’m still completely naive but I’m learning.)

There are six cakes to make this week, including my first wedding!  I’m not so nervous about making it, but I am nervous about getting it there safely.  I’ll be counting on Kevin driving Rhonda the Honda about 10 miles an hour on the interstate.

Here are pictures from last week:

This birthday cake traveled to TN and made an appearance at the resort “Wilderness at the Smokies.”

First I want to apologize if it gets redundant looking at the same pictures.  But some people look at Facebook, some look at the website, and then some only read this blog so I’m trying to reach everyone =)

Friends often ask if I am staying busy with my cake business.  The answer is yes and no.  I will sometimes go for a few weeks without any orders and then all at once I’ll have a week like this past one where I have 5 different cakes to make!  So it’s a little challenging that I can’t space out my orders, but I guess that is to be expected since I am not doing this full time yet.

I did however really enjoy this past week because I got some unique requests, and I always love to try something new.

This is quickly becoming my most popular cake; here you see the kit kat cake Valentine’s edition.  Perfect for the chocolate/peanut butter lover- it is very rich!

A friend ordered this for her mom’s birthday and she is part of a knitting group.  She came up with the idea and I thought it was super cute!

Caution: for adult eyes only =)  This was done for a bachelorette party.  I was working in the kitchen one evening when I told Kevin “I need to make my bra early so it has enough time to dry.”  Never thought I would say that.

This is from a couple of weeks ago- a wild 14th birthday party.

Hope you’ve enjoyed some of the new stuff.  You can always view the website www.artbytheslicecakes.com where I keep my pictures up to date.  Mention it to your friends!

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 =)

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!

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