Are you smack in the middle of winter, surrounded by snow, and feeling a little crabby from the 45 min of sunshine available during the day? Me too. Luckily I get to think ahead and plan for my summer wedding. I will admit that thinking about bright and summery cupcake flavours really brightens up my …
In case you missed it, I recently made a delicious milk tea cupcake recipe in order to knock off one of the flavours I had in mind to create my wedding cake. I have been on the hunt for interesting flavours and figured I'd also include some classic flavours such as coffee and chocolate. I …

Hello friends! I haven't been posting recently since I've been doing a lot less recipe development, and a whole lot more cake designing, so I thought I'd write a post about my whole process behind designing a cake. Everything starts with an idea, of course. Usually my client will come to me with a few …
Every time I attempt to bake vegan desserts, I feel like I'm learning to bake all over again. However, there's nothing I love more than a challenge -- and that's exactly what vegan baking is to me.
