Birthdays for my babies!

This summer proved to be a very busy one for us here! Along with getting used to having three little ones in the house, we had two big birthdays to celebrate.  The first was for our 6 year old daughter. She requested a giraffe party. I decided to stick with a simple giraffe print cookie and cake with a couple special cookies for the top. I am so thrilled with how they turned out!



How adorable are those little pink bows?! The cake is covered in homemade marshmallow fondant and buttercream details.

In the months leading up to my 4 year old's birthday we asked several times what she wanted for her birthday. She replied, "cake and candy!"  Love that girl!! She is currently obsessed with rainbows so with a little helpful suggestion we came up with this:

 This is one of my favorite icing techniques.  
I love when something relatively simple turns out so beautiful!



 Check out those cake layers!

Christmas in...April?!

It's been a crazy couple of months so I am finally getting a chance to sit down and post some long overdue cookies.  I didn't get a chance to do a lot of baking this season, but the ones I did get done were some of my all time favorites!!


These little cuties were made with a delicious brown sugar and spice cookie recipe from Bake @ 350.




I'm a sucker for Christmas lights - especially the rainbow ones! These cookies are my absolute favorite Christmas cookies of all time!! They are a bit tedious to pipe, but it was worth it!

Thanks for being patient. I had a very good reason to take a little time off and now it's time to go get him out of bed for a little snuggle!

Ready for May

Happy May, everyone!!! This year May is proving to be one of our busiest months! Not only am I getting orders non-stop, but my sweet first born's birthday is at the end of the month. I am SO excited this year to do her cake and cookies and I can't wait to show them to you!

I started this month off with some adorable baby cookies for a sweet little boy's dedication at church this last weekend.  His mom sent me a picture of the onesie he would be wearing and I got to design a few cookies to match. This is the original photo:




Love this outfit! Here are the cookies I came up with to match:




Can't wait to get started on the rest of the baking May has for me! Thanks for stopping by!

Welcome to I heart Sprinkles!

Thanks so much for visiting I heart Sprinkles! I've been baking and decorating with my mom, grandmother, and aunts since I was a little girl and have enjoyed the opportunity to share some of my creations with friends and family.  I absolutely believe you can never have too many sprinkles (or sparkle for that matter). 

I'd love to make your next special occasion even sweeter with a custom cake or cookies.

You can find my pricing page above, as well as photos of my work.  If you have any questions or comments please feel free to contact me!

Recent projects

The last few months have been pretty busy for us around here. My daughter is in preschool this year, my hubby works pretty long hours, and I've been getting more and more orders thanks to all of you! I thought I'd take a few minutes to post some of my latest projects.

These roller skates were for a friend's little girl's birthday bash at a roller rink. The zebra is a bit tedious to pipe, but I absolutely love the way it looks with these bright colors! They are also covered in edible glitter (which is hard to see in these pictures).

 


I have two little girls that keep my life full of sparkle, tutus, and pink, pink, pink! It gave me a bit of a challenge to create these Rescue Heroes cookies for two little boys. I made 2 dozen fire engines, some logos with metallic detail, and some personalized badges with names and ages. The badges are also dusted with silver luster to give them a realistic shine.  A good friend of mine did the cake and I can't wait to see them together!

This set of wedding dresses was created for my cousin's bridal shower. I wasn't able to be there, but I sent these with my mom. My four year old daughter is set on being a fashion designer when she grows up, so she helped me design these gowns. I absolutely LOVE doing dress cookies and creating my own designs out of frosting!!!


My sister-in-law, Diane, loves tea...tea cups, tea pots, anything tea. When I was marrying her wonderful little brother she and her family gave me a beautiful tea party bridal shower and an absolutely gorgeous tea cup and saucer that are now on display in my kitchen. 
A few years ago she found this adorable set of cookie cutters and sent them to me. I recently got inspired by this new brush embroidery technique and knew I wanted to try it out on her tea set.  I love the way they turned out and how great this technique looks on them.
