All American Apple Pie


Apple Pie, my favorite! The pie crust recipe was from 'The Gathering Place' #2 cookbook, very flakey & easy to make. The pie filling came from 'The Best of Virginia' cookbook (one that I use often). The filling is so good almost a little caramel apple like ... but not. Absolutely delicious!

Satin Flower


Saw a cute little girl wearing one of these the other day, thought I would try to make one and it was way easy.
step 1: Cut out graduating circles of satin.... as big or small as you want.
step 2: With a lighter, lightly melt edges of circles. They curl automatically.
step 3: Glue circles with fabric/craft glue to make the flower
step 4: Glue rhinestone/button etc. in center of flower
step 5: Glue feather and then cotton circle on back
step 5: Hot glue aligator clip on back

Chocolate Ruffles


My sis-in-law liked the pink ruffle cake so much she decided she wanted to make one for her boss' birthday. So I helped her decorate it. It looked scrumptious!

Pleating Heart


Happy Valentine's Day! I loved the ruffled look from my last cake, so I decided to use the ruffles again but this time added pleats.


Red Velvet cake with red cream cheese frosting, surrounded by white chocolate pleats and topped with a white chocolate heart - all made from white chocolate clay.
