A little bit of blog, a little bit of cake...

I officially am the proud mommy to a pre-schooler! I know *gasp* Bryson was signed up this weekend for pre-k! After finishing up a 3 tiered cake way after midnight, I rolled out of bed to be in line @5:05AM! I know, total insanity! But, mission accomplished, so it was totally worth it. I was rewarded for all of my hard by a lovely shopping trip, I was not complaining :]

Back to the cake. Here is the beautiful birthday girl Hannah & her cake. 3 tiered chocolate cake w/ chocolate buttercream frosting, covered with a lime green marshmallow fondant. Decorations done in fondant & gum paste. She said it was "perfect". My day was made! :]

Chocolate..need I say more?

          When boredom strikes at the Fink house, my sweet tooth kicks into overdrive. Last week, I decided to test a new cupcake. I am going to be serving cupcakes this weekend, March 20,2010, at a charity benefit concert in town. Poster below! So, I thought, why not give it a try. Well, they turned out amazing!

Dark Chocolate Cupcakes w/ Cream Cheese Frosting.

 I just might include these in what I will be selling this weekend!

Katie approved!

Now, this weekend is the Joy Frady Martin Benefit Concert! Live Music, Cupcakes, Charity, & good community food!  Finkle's Bake Shop will be there selling cupcakes. Money will be going toward helping Ms. Martin. Hope to sell everyone there!

MARSHMALLOW FONDANT IS HERE!!! Yes, you read right. If you have tried store bought fondant you know that it is, well...BLAH! It's just awful! Don't get me wrong I love working with it, but can't stand the taste. So, I found a perfect recipe for Marshmallow Fondant, & it's so good! If you like marshmallows, this is right up your alley!

Marshmallow fondant goes on a cake smooth, like fondant, & gives your cake that professional modern look. Any flavor or color. Raspberry,Orange,Chocolate,Strawberry,Lemon,Almond,Mint,Lime,Cherry,Vanilla...etc. The best part is that it is no extra charge to have your cake or cupcakes covered!

Retro looks good....

So, the new blog is up & running!!!! Yay!!! I'm so excited! I absolutly love the new retro look Finkle's has now! Give credit where credit is due, Meghan Cooper- Blah Dee Blog, & Lisa Strickland- Life of a Sahm. You girls just rocked my world :]!

Back to business, I am trying tons of new fun new treats, Ill post pics later! I would describe them, but don't want someone trying to take credit for them! Well, more later. Leave me a comment on what you think of Finkle's new look?
