Trick or Treat!

I know it's a couple days late but Happy Halloween!

I wanted to share the latest ghoulish goody I've made this year!

Cake Pops!




I bought a little cake pop maker about a month ago and decided to try my hand at some Halloween-inspired yummies!  I made these for a Halloween party and they were a hit!






I made some little pumpkins, Frankensteins, witches, and ghosts.  It was actually pretty darn fun!  Takes a lot of patience though.  Looooooooooot of patience.






Also, a regular cake recipe makes a ton. Literally, a ton!  Okay, not literally.  But my go-to chocolate cake recipe made 8 and a half dozen.  That's 102 cake balls!




I actually ran out of sticks (and I also just got a little lazy), so I crushed some cookies on top of some of them and turned the others into little bite-sized ghosts!




I highly recommend making these--easy to make, easy to eat!  Great for parties!

Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween!  Did you make any devilishly delightful treats this year?  Feel free to share them in the comments! =D

Hello, Cake World!

Well, we've finally gotten this website a-goin'.  I've got a few more pictures to put up, but our photographer hasn't given us the pictures as of yet.  But in the meantime, why don't you check out the awesome cakes we've done so far?  They're pretty sweet.  And nerdy!

Here, I'll even save you a step!

This is the first Mad Cake I've ever made.  It was for my sister's baby shower:





The bottom layer was chocolate chip pound cake (yum) and the top layer and "cupcake" (more of a cake cake) was sour cream pound cake, held together with chocolate fudge icing.




It was my first attempt at a topsy-turvy cake, and it was pretty successful!  Held together completely without dowels, whaaaaaaaat!

But now that you've had just a little taste of the awesomeness, aren't you craving more?  You should give us a ring.  Let us make your next get-together positively

MAD!
