        Archive for June, 2009Pioneers of “Cake Taxidermy”!Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009What happens when a couple loves their personalized, World of Warcraft groom’s cake SO MUCH, that they can’t bear to serve it? Well, when the cake was created by an evil cake overlord, they can get it preserved. For real. “Foopmallet” gained immortality 1 month after he was created, and the whole process is documented here. We love challenges! Sonnet for CaffeineTuesday, June 16th, 2009(Apologies to Elizabeth Barrett Browning!) How do I love Caffeine? Let me count the ways. Ok, so I am SO totally not a poet… but what can I say, there is something about abusing stimulants that gets my heart racing! Oh wait.. that’s the caffeine. Tee Hee! In all seriousness, I loves me some energy shots.. energy drinks.. more energy shots… whatever. So it really didn’t surprise anyone when I put my love of uppers together with my love of baking, and crafted some true genius… Introducing our “Jacked Up Java” line! “Jacked Up Java” is the first in our new line of highly buzzworthy products. Literally buzzworthy – they are loaded up with real coffee, chocolate, caffeine AND guarana! Each serving (2 cookies, or 1 brownie) contains the same amount of caffeine as a large cup of premium coffee! click here to check out our Jacked up Java baking mixes, or here to order ready-baked goodies. These are, of course, only the start of our evil plans. Check back for announcements of new flavors and offerings in the future! Now THAT is an invite!Monday, June 8th, 2009Click here to see the coolest wedding invitation I’ve seen in a very long time. It’s a youtube video! As you may have noticed, I’m a huge fan of couples that really personalize their wedding day. I CANNOT imagine how much time and effort this must have taken… but they get a big thumbs up from me.. even if it was a little long for my poor ADD-riddled attention span Awesome review!Friday, June 5th, 2009How awesome is that? I love hearing people compliment the ease and fail-safe nature of our mixes, but baking drunk on top of that? Awesome.

Crazy Cat!
Saturday, June 6th, 2009If you attended the 2008 Twin City Bridal Association Wedding Fair.. oh, January or March… you might remember our ridiculous 10 foot tall cake!
It was actually a fake cake, and it was retired immediately after the show. I mean, what further use would we have for a 10 foot tall, neon green fake cake, right? So, we brought it home (NO room for it in our commercial kitchen!) and stuck it in the corner of our home office till we could figure out a use for it, or repurpose the foam. It’s been sitting there ever since, completely ignored… until today.
Our adorable kitten, “Tweak”, has decided that the 10 foot tall (!!!) fake wedding cake is about the coolest bed he could ever have.. and has adopted it. Twice in the past 2 days now, we’ve found him up in one of the separators, taking a nap. I guess we’ve found the new purpose for it.
Too cute not to share pics!
