Vintage cakes will forever have my heart 🤍🍓

There’s something so satisfying about watching all those little details come together…especially when buttercream and fresh strawberries are involved.

Would you choose this for your birthday cake?

I was so honored to participate in the LAWS Corks for a Cause fundraising event last night at Stone Tower Winery. Being around so many strong, brave and resilient women was an incredible experience. They raised over $250,000 through this event, bringing their 10 year fundraising total to over $1 Million. If you would like to contribute to that total, please visit the link in my bio.

By far, my favorite wedding dessert bar request is for a traditional Pennsylvania cookie table. I’ve had the opportunity to do a few of these, and I absolutely adore setting them up. It reminds me of that scene from Hook with all the pretend food, only what you see here is not part of your imagination. The best part? The couple provided customized go bags for guest to fill to their hearts content. This dessert bar in particular consisted of just under 1000 cookies and bars.

This is a list of all of the desserts from this display:
Sugar Cookies
Lemon Sugar Cookies
Lemon Lavender Sugar Cookies
Dunnfetti Cookies
Shortbread Cookies
Lavender Shortbread Cookies
Snickerdoodle Cookies
Macadamia Nut Cookies
Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
Toffee Cookies
Peanut Butter Cookies
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Chocolate Chip Cookies
Chocolate Chip Toffee Cookies
Chocolate Cookies
Chocolate Cookies with white chocolate chips
Salted Caramel Bars
Brownies

I always get a little nervous when customers send me AI pictures as inspiration, but the fun part is definitely being able to turn it into my own version. I have even started embracing the idea of using AI to occasionally draft up concepts while on a consultation call, especially for quick turn around orders. I’m not much of a drawer, so being able to have a tool that can turn my vision into something a customer can see is very helpful. As a business owner, and cake artist, I always ensure that my customer knows that these renderings are just for examples of ideas I have swirling in my head and I always emphasize that any picture shared with me (even ones that are not AI generated) are only ever used as inspiration.

It’s a painful time nowadays to see so many talented creators clearly using AI in their promotions. You have my promise to NEVER publish a picture that is not 100% mine. Curious how others feel about this.
