It's a Jungle Out There!

Wow - it's been a while since I've been on here...has anyone missed me? :)
It seems like the half-sheet zebra cake is fast becoming my 'signature' cake. I get a lot of orders for this one - which is great for me because I can usually knock them out in about four hours - baking and cooling time not included, of course. I can't help but wonder though - what is the next 'big' thing going to be? And, most importantly, will I be able to pull it off? I think so - I'm up for the challenge at least.

The cakes here are from my daughter, Elaina's, 12th birthday - which had to be re-made a week later because her party was cancelled because of snow. That's a birthday she'll never forget since we live in northern Texas where it NEVER seems to snow. One was for a 16th birthday party for the daughter of a friend from work. The purple one was to celebrate the end of Elaina's volleyball season. Definitely a reason to celebrate because they made it to the play-offs this spring. Whoop! Whoop! The zebra theme matched the girls' socks that go with their uniforms, so they were all pretty excited to see it at the end of season party.

For some reason, this is all I've got tonight. It's been a busy couple of weeks for me and I guess it's taking it's toll on my creative writing abilities. Tune in later though, I'll be back with pics of more cakes, and the funny back-stories that go with them. Until then, happy baking!
