Pinkalicious
One of my favorite people in the entire world, @GenSpin, hit me up for a last-minute cake order for her BFF. I didn't have any cakes to make that weekend, so I was free. Yay! Her BFF wanted a Pinkalicious themed cake for her daughter. At first I thought she wanted a pink colored cake. lol But as soon as she explained that Pinkalicious was a book, I knew what she was talking about. A little girl obsessed with pink and cupcakes... sounds a lot like me! :)

Close the Books
My 10-year high school reunion is this year. I don't plan on going though. I had an awesome time in high school, but I'm still friends and keep in touch with the people I knew back then. So I don't really feel like paying money to see those other people I don't care about.
Anyways, one of my sister's old classmates emailed me about making a cake for her sister's high school graduation. I thought it was kind of weird/cool that I got to make a cake for someone who was graduating from the same high school as me, 10 years after I did. She ordered a pile of books with a graduation cap on top. This is the third time I've made this type of cake so it was easy squeezy.

Bake the Books
One of my co-workers is in a book club. Nerd alert! Just kidding. =) I'm not a huge reader, but I have phases where I read a few books in a row. I used to say I "hate" reader, but that's not true. I hate when reading is a requirement, like for school. When it's for fun, I'm all about it. I wish I had more time to read. I could probably make the time.
Anyways, this book club is celebrating its anniversary today, so my co-worker asked if I would make a cake. She wanted two books piled on each other, the club's favorite and least favorite books. I've made a pile o' books cake before, which was huge, so I thought a smaller one would be easy squeezy.
I think because a book is a fairly simple design, it's harder to make it look fancy schmancy. Well, for me, at least. I've made three book cakes and the Twilight one is the only one I absolutely loved. See below:
Don't get me wrong, I do like how the book club one turned out! Here it is:
It's either going to be my mission to perfect book cakes or I'm never doing one again. haha I haven't decided yet.
