let him eat cake.

the sweetest customer of urban's asked me to make a cake for her son's baptism this weekend!  her family always celebrates with a tres leches cake, so i did my best to uphold their family tradition with my version of tres leches cake with whipped cream frosting.  {& buttercream frosting too, so the colors wouldn't bleed onto the white frosting.}

her son's name is teddy & they call him "snuggle bug" {so cute!}, so she asked for a cake with bugs on it.  i made a few gigantic colorful fun bugs to represent her little guy.

& to feed a few more, she added nutella cupcakes to the mix!  i tried a new recipe of nutella cupcakes with nutella frosting, all made from my homemade nutella, of course.  i might have tried one & it might have been pretty darn good.  good thing the recipe made about 3 times more than i was expecting.  we all enjoyed the extras.

my customer sent the sweetest note after her son's big day:  "kendall, thank you so much... the beautiful cake was a huge hit too, & i even gave teddy a little bite {his first sweets... might as well be the best kind!}"

i am so grateful for kind people.  & for the opportunity to make someone smile.

love love,

kjp.
