And one of my favorite things about it, besides the awesome unconventional colors, was that precious little bee.

If you will indulge me, I would just like to show you some pictures of the finished project.

  1. This is a beautiful cake! I love how you were able to replicate the design so closely to the fabric. Love the green and blue colors, what a great combination! The cookies and the cupcakes go perfectly with the cake, great dessert table!

  2. write it down on the calendar–this is the first time i’ve ever seen a bug and gone “aww!” 🙂

  3. These are all beautiful, but those bee-biscuits are DIVINE.
    I wish I could hire you to come and beautify my kitchen 🙂

  4. Absolutely amazing!!! I especially love the bee cookies! And that super tall cake stand is amazing! It all came out gorgeous!

  5. Amanda, what a beautiful project! I love how you separated the green and blue from the fabric in the sweet treats! So elegant! Really wish I could watch you work! I literally have no idea how you work your magic with that icing! Beautiful!

  6. Every time I see your products I am in total amazement! Perhaps, I think you could change your “i am baker” title to “i am a great baker”. Well, I will debate on someone who will not agree.
