The Lacey Cake

Lacey Page and Zach Ledwich tied the knot Saturday April 5th. I can remember a year ago when Lacey asked if I would do her Wedding Cake. After several emails the cake came to life! We really hope she liked it...we thought it turned out simply elegant. Lacey's father constructed the Cake Stand...very awesome! It is amazing what ordinary, everyday materials can turn into with a little imagination.


Amongst the cake table were these adorable favor boxes and table decorations:





Lacey also ordered this Golf Ball Groom's Cake for Zach as a gift.



Thank you Lacey for another amazing cake to add to our portfolio! We look forward to working with the happy newly weds for all of their future sweet needs!

Rock Band Madness

This cake was created for a Rockin' Birthday a while back. I just found the pictures the other day so I thought I would write about it. The boys look like they had a lot of fun with the cake. Thank you to Rachel from Pittsburg Art Supply (www.pittsburgartsupply.com 231-1004)! We are still learning all the new "hip" games the kids are playing these days!

Spidey Strikes Again

Here is another Spider-Man cake done for our nephew's Birthday Party. This time Spidey wasn't made of frosting, but of a plastic picture that could be taken off the cake and hung in the window. It's fun for kids to have something extra from their cake. We hope everyone enjoyed the spidey cake. Happy Birthday Alex!

Update on the Cakery

Well....as I always say when people ask, "It is coming along". What else can you say? We have a new Glass front door, we've started painting the facade, replaced 2 of the front windows (we left the 3rd for the sake of history), the Electric is all updated and ready to go, we've torn out the old carpet and now we are waiting for the loan fairies to give us money so that we can do the rest!

Hopefully all of that will be next week. As you all know, these things take time...and most always take more time then you think. We're hoping that once we officially sign papers it will only take a month or two before we open the doors to the public. So, lets keep our fingers crossed.

I'm sure there will be plenty of painting and cleaning to do in the near future if anyone has some free time on their hands and would like the honor of working on an old building! Just let us know!

We'll start a new blog for the building its self as soon as things start happening. That way we can keep you all up to date!

Thank you for hangin' in there with us on the long wait! If we needed your support in the past we will definitely need it when we open! Too bad there are bills to pay...right? Being a grown up sucks =). But at least I'll be doing what I love!


I know that Broadway only has one "d" and not two...but right now, I'm too lazy to fix it!

Wild Cat Birthday

This sheetcake was decorated for a K-STATE student's Birthday. Justin's grandma (and mine) ordered this special cake for him! Even though my husband groaned as I was piping the Wild Cat logo, he said that it turned out nice when I was finished. He thought I should be doing a KU cake since they are the best (in his opinion) and are going all the way. My response was that if someone wanted to pay me to do a KU cake...I would gladly take them up on the offer. You can't be too bias in the decorating biz =).


Below here is another Cake N a Jar that I made to match Justin's Birthday cake and gave him as a b-day gift.


I don't think he really knew what to do with it at first...but hopefully he figured out that it is Cake and you can eat it! Happy Birthday Justin!

Birthday Cake N a Jar

In a Jar? YES, in a jar. Here are two Cakes N Jars. We layered cake with frosting, coconut and almonds into these cute little jars for two of our niece's birthdays.


We are pretty sure they were happy to have their very own dessert to themselves (they have a big family and usually have to share).

Some might think that Cake N a Jar is a crazy idea, but it seems to be going over well. They are just enough dessert for one person, they travel well, and they keep longer. Everyone should have a Cake N a Jar! If you are interested we will hopefully be selling them in the future. We will also have several flavors to choose from like Banana Split, PB & J, Tropical Storm, etc. If you have an idea, please let us know and we would love to experiment! They make awesome gifts for holidays, birthdays, Wedding Favors, and anything you can think of because of the endless colors and versatile decoration. We can ship them as well! Spread the Sweet Designs Cakery love across the world!

Who is that man in the apron? Mmmmm?

Well, that is ROGER! But better yet...who is that pesky rabbit on the counter? That's gotta be some type of health violation. We didn't even see the bunny rabbit sitting there! Darn Rabbit! I thought Rabbit's ate carrots or something...not cookies. (oh, I could go on for hours about this. I don't like Rabbit's who steal cookies when your not looking. Bakers beware of cookie thievin' Rabbits!)


Anyway, some how I conned Roger into helping me decorate the Easter cookies we took to his parents house. (I'm pretty good at conning him into things, just ask him).

And here is the final result:


These turned out so cute. We are calling them Petite Cookiewiches. They didn't last 2 minutes on the plate after we walked in the door. And just so his mom knows...he even rolled the dough and cut some out too!

For those of you who are getting married...these petite cookiewiches would make adorable favors for your guests. We can make them in any color! (Who knows...I might even con Roger into helping me again!)
