Leisl's 1st Baby Shower!

Whew! What a weekend! My dear friend had her first baby shower for her new baby boy. We all wanted to do something special for her, but you know me, biting off more than I can chew or bake in this case! Well, I'm happy to say that it turned out very nice. I had a lot of help and great support. Thank you to Cherry Ann and her family/friends who helped me that day, and for letting me use your kitchen! I couldn't have done it without you.

We pulled an all nighter to get these homemade baby block favors out. The mommy-to-be really wanted these favors so we were trying to make it happen. And we pulled it off, right ladies!!

The baby shower cake was a jungle theme, the same as the shower theme. All I could get done was a baby giraffe and little baby "Junebug" *aka* Thomas Elijah Smith. I tried to get more animals done but time and my poor fingers wouldn't allow me to do it. It was good practice and a great experience. Just another stepping stone to being more creative with cakes. My hat goes off to all you experienced bakers out there, it is truly a gift what you have!

Stay tuned for upcoming cake events! Have a great summer!
