New Flavor~Pink Lemonade

Wow it feels so good to be back in the kitchen creating my sweet treats.  I have come up with a new great spring/summer flavor to add to the flavor list, pink lemonade!  Doesn't that just sound refreshing? It is perfect for spring/summer because it is such a light flavor, not to mention pink.  :) 

Mmmmm, so pink and so yummy!

Love the bowl! It was a great find at Michael's.

Please excuse my absence

Wow, what a hiatus huh??  So, for anyone that does not know my husband and I relocated to Charlotte, NC a month ago tomorrow.  While I knew and was expecting to take a little break from making my pops and bites I never imagined it would be as long as it actually was.  Turns out moving even when you have professional movers doing it takes a little longer as well as settling in completely does. Our stuff was delivered on time as promised and we were unpacked quite quickly it was the re-organizing, settling in, and finding a job that took a tad bit longer than I guess I anticipated.  Good news is I have found a job and it is part time so hopefully this will afford me more time to focus on my cake pops and create more goodies.  I start this Monday and could not be happier, truth is I started to get a little bored and when I get bored I like to shop...not such a good combo huh? LOL

I did create some lovely bride and groom pops for a bridal shower for a friend back in Tennessee so that kept me busy the second week I was here in NC.

I have even come up with a new flavor that I think is my favorite right now.....

Yep, pink lemonade! Perfectly pink and light for the summer.  I will post pictures as soon as I get them dipped and decorated, hopefully by the end of the weekend. Feels good to be back and ready to pop again!  :)

The number 1 and Cherry Bombs

Nothing like saying I am back and then not following up on that huh???  My apologies....I am not sure if I mentioned in my other post or not but my husband and I are preparing to move to North Carolina so much of my time has been spent on getting all the moving stuff squared away as well as dealing with our place here in Tennessee being shown.  Enough with my excuses though, I have been able to spend a little bit in the kitchen continuing to make sweet treats.

I had someone ask me if I could possible do the number 1 for her daughter's first birthday the end of this month.  I thought it was a super cute idea and ran with it.  Below is what I came up with.

I then moved onto creating new flavors as I love to do currently!  I came up with the new flavor, cherry bomb.  It consists of cherry vanilla cake and I covered them in chocolate.  So so yummy!! I made some cake bites with them and are calling them Cherry Bomb cake bites.

And I am back!

So, I knew I was going to get bit busy with graduation time around and then us having to head out of town to look for a place to live in what will be our new city this July but I never intended to be away for so long!! I am so so glad to be back and have been working on oh so much lately.  First off the blog has a new look thanks to Kelley at The Grant Life http://www.thegrantlife.com/.  I really cannot thank her enough for taking the time to create the new look and at no cost to me at all.  It really means a lot being that my business is still very new. Love her creativeness, if you have not stopped by her blog you need to!

My busy times started with surprising my family with a visit to North Carolina.  We were already there looking for a place to live and I thought what a great time to surprise them!  The plan was to go watch my brother's baseball game and bring him some sweet treats for his birthday which was that weekend.  Plans changed quickly as his game was cancelled and my grandfather had to have emergency surgery.  So, we really surprised everyone when we arrived at the hospital after his surgery.  I am glad to report that he made it through surgery and that although we are not totally out of the woods yet we are taking and appreciating one day at a time.  Here are the baseball pops I surprised Allen with:

Then it was time for graduation pops. My younger sister in-law graduated from Emory University so I created these for her:

I then had a request to make some pops/bites with the theme sweets for a sweetie.  So, here is what I came up with for that request:

I then moved onto my Hello Kitty cake pop order for a little girl's birthday.  They were made in vanilla cake and chocolate cake and some had some "bling" on their bows.

I then moved onto a simple yet elegant request for some roses and hearts for an anniversary. And this brings me to my last order of the business. And to complete my busy last few weeks, I was asked to do some red margarita pops for a bachelorette party. Don't they just look so yummy!!

I must say that I do love and am thankful to be busy with my cake pops so keep bringing the orders on and sharing the love!  :)

Busy week and Spring time fun!

Whew this week was a very busy one for me! I had our annual meeting with my full time job, down in Orlando part of the week and then I ran in the St. Jude Country Music 1/2 Marathon here in Nashville on Saturday. The course was very challenging as Nashville is VERY hilly and it was a bit warm but I finished and it was for an awesome cause!

I somehow found some time to complete by spring cake pops and bites order to go out tomorrow.  A repeat customer of mine contacted me as they have a family member that is undergoing cancer treatment and so to brighten their day they requested some spring pops and bites in my new favorite flavor, lemon drop. It is such a light spring/summer flavor.

One, two, three, margaritas!

I love when people stop by my facebook page or message me to see if I can make a certain design in terms of cake pops.  This week I was challenged with the request for a strawberry margarita.  A friend is attending a bachelorette party in June and has to bring a desert.  What a fun idea! So, here are my three attempts at the margaritas. The last one on the right is my favorite, I think the shape turned out perfect.
