It was recently my nephew Wyatt’s birthday and he chose a dinosaur theme. Somara did an excellent job, especially on the volcano oozing out all the lava (some kind of berry glaze). The prehistoric creatures probably didn’t eat very well … Continue reading →

A coworker of Somara’s commissioned this one based upon Hello Kitty dressed upon as a flapper from the Roaring Twenties. As always, the centerpiece is edible.

Somara finally sent me a picture of what she took to her parents’ house for Thanksgiving. Underneath the sugary shell is a pumpkin-flavored cake. Not to worry, I did get a slice with the plate she brought back from the … Continue reading →

My coworkers were given a treat courtesy of Somara this morning. The cupcakes pictured above are the batch she took in but they were the same really humorous designs of werewolves [the chocolate ones with chips for eyes] and mummies … Continue reading →

Earlier this week I mentioned it was my friend RC’s birthday. Above is the confectionary treat she made for the festivities on the big day. This cupcake-sheet cake was a hit…with the adults! Children are easier to impress. If it … Continue reading →

This rich delicacy was an anniversary cake for my friends Audrey and Bill to celebrate their marriage. They loved it on every level: appearance and more importantly, the taste.    Sorry the picture of it is way overdue. I got … Continue reading →

An overdue picture, sorry, matters at home, work and life were getting in the way.    This is another great groom cake Somara was hired to do, right after we returned from Vegas. My co-worker Isaac requested this. It’s a … Continue reading →

It has been a while since I’ve posted one of Somara’s cakes, namely because I tended to have the camera in my backpack and when she’s baking, I stay out of the house; I’ll stray from my diet too much.  … Continue reading →

Obviously Wyatt picked out this year’s February birthday cake. I guess younger kids are suckered into the story line of Darth Vader being a sympathetic villain despite the millions of lives destroyed or ruined in his career as Emperor Palpatine’s … Continue reading →

Did everyone have a nice Valentine’s Day? That includes all the Single people, not just the Married and Involved couples. Besides Somara’s latest confectionary creations in the above photo, we had a pretty relaxing, memorable time. Definitely a more enjoyable … Continue reading →

I doubt the birthday boy reads my site but this is Somara’s contribution to a party we are/were attending. She wanted to go with a theme or idea for the recipient yet all I could think about was his motorcycle, … Continue reading →

It wasn’t all fun and games for Somara in Florida this last weekend. Besides visiting and celebrating, Yvette [her sister] put her culinary skills to work making several birthday cakes as the photos show. I have no idea what they … Continue reading →
