I'm BACK!!

Well between moving to Arkansas, applying for new jobs, starting a new job at Harp's bakery, receiving another job offer, and trying to decide which of those paths to go down I have been out of the blogging world for a little while. But things are starting to settle down now so I will update you on what I've been doing.
Ok so right after Memorial day I started at Harps grocery store in downtown Bentonville as their head cake decorator. They do wonderful cakes and give quite a bit of creative freedom for being a grocery store, which I love. I have really enjoyed learning buttercream techniques since before I worked there I mainly used fondant. Unfortunately and fortunately at the same time my last day there will be Saturday because I received a job with Anheuser Busch that I just simply could not turn down. So I will be back in the corporate world and doing cakes on the weekends when I find time and am feeling creative!

Here are a few of the cakes that I remembered to take pictures of while I've been working at Harp's that I've done, all in buttercream.
 Silk flowers provided by the bride arranged by me, I loved the yellow, it was such a beautiful summer wedding.

 1/2 sheet cake for the base and an 1/8 sheet cake for the bed all covered in buttercream with plastic "characters".
And of course while in Arkansas I've mad about a dozen of these little hogs.
