I'm Back!!!!!!!

I AM BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


As the title states I am back to blogging about cakes again! Life is funny and sometimes you have to roll with the punches.. You are probably like is she still doing cakes? YES! I never stopped doing cakes. I just have been very very busy over the last 2 years with life and raising a family and starting another business.. yes I started another business. Its a natural extension of what I do now so it wasn't a huge surprise to my family and friends. So I now run Kima's Konfections as well Kima's Paper Craft Creations! So I make papercrafts like party decor and other items like scrapbook mini albums that I see online and at craft fairs. So all of that is reason why I have been a very bad blogger:( But the haitus is over now and I am back to blogging about cakes. I might do some party spotlights here and there again since I have branched out am working with a number of local event planners here in Philadelphia so you will still some of that. And I am working on some more exciting news that I can't say yet as it is still being worked out but as soon as everything is finalized I will be blogging about it:)

Since I have done so many cakes over the last two years, I will just randomly start with a few more recent cakes and then go back to show some my favorites. Well this pretty was done back in January for a client in NJ (yes I do take clients that live close to Philadelphia in NJ). Its 3 tiers of vanilla bean cake with vanilla bean buttercream filling. I made crown myself over 2 days and let it dry and then brushed it with silver lust dust. I the same thing to the name and the other silver accent pieces on the cake. The bottom tier is a buttercream rosette design. The middle tier is a quilted pattern with silver dragees and then the top tier is all white with rhinestone wrap around the bottom.

This cake is pretty popular on my Facebook page which has got a slight overhaul and you can find it here, so much so that I am doing this cake again this weekend except in white and gold! So you know I will come back with pictures just to show the constrast of the two cakes.

Well I have to run but I will back this weekend to post more pretty cakes. Until next time.. 

Party Spotlight-Autumn Lynn's Chocolate Sins: Pink & Brown Rustic Milk & Cookies Party

Well hello again Ya'll!

I'm back with another fantastic party party spotlight! This time I am spotlighting a good party friend of mine Autumn. Autumn is the owner and creative genius behind Autumn Lynn's Chocolate Sins. Anything that you can dip in chocolate Autumn makes it including some very yummy donuts:) Autumn is based in Groveport, Ohio so if you are in that part of the state look her up you won't be disappointed!

Autumn created a Pink & Brown Rustic Milk & Cookie Party back in November (which I was a vendor on wink, wink). The party was inspired by her nieces who turned 7 and 10. The following is what Autumn said her awesome party:

As soon as they requested a milk and cookies party I knew that pink, brown and white would be the party theme colors. I wanted the decor to be rustic yet I wanted the girls to still love it!!

he dessert table was complete with traditional chocolate chip cookies, milk and cookie cake pops, adorable sugar cookies, chocolate chip cookie dough bites, pink chocolate covered marshmallows and milk mustache lollipops!

For added fun and of course gorgeous pictures the youngest birthday girl had a great time getting her pictures taken with a beautiful tassel garland and huge 36 inch balloon!!

I hope you enjoyed all the milk and cookies details throughout this party!!!

Finally.... A Lorax Cake!

Good Afternoon Ya'll!


I hope you all are having a good day today, for us in Philadelphia it has been raining for the last couple of days and today is no exception. So on this rainy day I have decided to blog a little bit. I had been waiting all year to do a cake like this.. I have seen plenty of pictures on the internet from other cake decorators but no one had ordered from me until a couple of weeks ago! Yes folks, I finally got to do a Lorax theme birthday cake:) See for us cake decorators we love it when we get to do new characters or design we haven't done yet.. it gets kind of boring doing the same cakes. So when an old York client L, asked me if I could do a Lorax theme cake for his daughter I jumped at the chance to do it. I have been wanting to do a Lorax figure for a while now... of course he was the first thing I made for the cake. Of course I made some Truffula trees to go on the cake as well. I love the meaning behind the story and I think the movie was soo cute. I think kids are never to young to learn more about conservation efforts.

The only thing that dampened my mood when the cake was done was realizing now I have to drive 2 hours to deliver it back to York. So I packed up the cake. Jayden and myself and we made the trip back to York to drop off the cake. By the time I got back home it was already dark and half the day was gone so from that experience I have decided that unless its for a huge party cake or a wedding, I will be limiting by deliveries to York. It just takes up too much of my time to deliver just one cake. I love my York customers but doing that drive all the time is a bit much. Other than that, this cake was soo much fun to make.. I hope I get to make another so I can do something a little different.

Peace & Blessings

Pink Passion!

Hi Ya'll!!!!

I am back after about a month of not blogging! The reason for the long delay is that I relocated. I am now a resident of Philadelphia:) We have been settled into our new place for about a week and half now and I have already done two cakes here. I am working on a third this week for a York client for her husband's 50th birthday. Oh I how love those kinds of birthday cakes. But back to the post at hand.... Pink Passion! Earlier in the month of October I had the pleasure of making a sweet 16 cake for a sweet girl, Brooke. Her mom came to me earlier in the summer to discuss her daughter's birthday cake. From the initial conception to the actual delivery of the cake, many things have changed but still the cake out great! Brooke is a dancer who loves the color pink and when I mean loves the color pink... she LOVES pink. So suggested that her cake be different shades of the color pink which she absolutely loved the idea. She also wanted to include something referencing to her being a dancer but that would fit into the overall design of the cake as well. So we decided to use silhouette of dancers in black around the bottom tier. This is also one of a few cakes in which I had to make sugar roses in various shades of pink. Now I love sugar flowers but making them can be a pain in the rear..but this time around I didn't mind it so much. Once you get an assembly line going it goes by fast.

When her mom met me to pink up the cake, her facial expression was all I needed to know that I got it right:) She later emailed me to let me know that Brooke loved it just as much as she did:)

Well that's it for now.. I should have another post this weekend for ya!

Peace & Blessings

PRIMP Anniversary Cake

Good Evening Ya'll!
I hope you guys have been having a good week so far..mine has been up and down but I am still blessed nonetheless so I will keep on moving :) So in my attempt to work backwards with the cake orders, this cake was done about 2 weeks ago. The cake was for the owner of PRIMP Agency here in York,PA. PRIMP Agency is an agency that is full service from putting together photo shoots to hair/make up. They do it all! So I asked the owner if she wanted a cake at her anniversary party in Baltimore, MD and of course she said yes! And on top of that she gave me free reign to do whatever I wanted to do as long as it stayed in the realm of fashion. So I was over the moon! I don't get to do that many fashion cakes, so I jumped at the chance to do something different. The cakes were white chocolate and vanilla bean. I also covered the cake in chocolate ganache which I am learning it works great with fondant and provide a super smooth surface (if you do it right) to work with. I wanted the cake to be fun with a slight sophistication to it so I made the color scheme gray, pink, yellow and some white. Ya'll know that I am in love with the pink/gray and white/gray combo so I used it all in this cake. I also added in some zebra print for some fun.

So as you can see I had way to much fun with this cake. I also hand molded all of the toppers. I love the way the dress form and dress came out. That was my first time doing something like that and I think I will do it again maybe even trying make a cake like that. I love the shoe and will be working on some more shoes to sell. Here is a close up of the top.

Also you will notice some feathers..yes a first for me and I will most definitely use them again on a cake. I want to do a wedding display cake with some feathers on it. I also used my new alphabet letters on this cake as well. And of course I added in one of my fantasy flowers in hot pink.

So that's it for now and another post is coming soon..
Until then
Peace & blessings

Ruffle Flower & Buttons Birthday Cake

Good Evening Ya'll!
Once again I have fallen behind on the blogging... I do soo good and then I get busy and what happens I forget to blog or don't have the time too. This has been the case the last couple weeks..I haven't had a slow week yet. My Etsy shop is getting orders all the time and with my cake orders it seems like I am always working on something. Add in my crazy 2 year old Jayden and I think you guys get the picture. So finally I've had an afternoon to myself to relax and since Jayden is fast asleep I figure this would be the perfect time to blog:) 
So of course I am working backwards with this post. I did 3 cakes this week (one of which I didn't get a picture of) with a host of figures I had to make to be shipped out all across the country. The one cake that stood out this week was this little adorable pink, gray and white color scheme cake for my client B, whose is repeat client of mine. She ordered a cake for her great grandmother's birthday. Since this was for an older woman I wanted to do a little bit more sophisticated color scheme and think pink and gray are so cute together. I also didn't want to do anything too juvenile in the design so I made some ruffle flowers. I purchased some buttons mold online a few weeks ago and this was the perfect opportunity to try them out on a cake. And can I say I AM HOOKED! I am in love with molds, not only are they so easy to use but they had detail that would be hard to get if I was doing it by hand. So instead of regular centers for my flowers, I made the buttons the center and the result is very pretty. I also have some alphabet cutters I used on this cake as well. The overall look is sophisticated with a bit of whimsy due to the lettering. Needless to say B was really excited when she saw the cake because all she asked for was flowers and happy birthday on the cake. Everything else she left up to me.

Well that's it for this post.
Peace & Blessings
