A Little About Me

After growing up making all the sweets at every family gathering and holiday, I fell in love with desserts. I chose to attend the Culinary Arts program at Brigham Young University Idaho. After graduating I have worked at various jobs making cakes and other goodies. The most recent being the Pastry Chef for the Oxford University Club, Taylor Grocery Special Events Catering in Oxford, Mississippi, and now my mom's farm-Fiddlin Rooster Farm- in Water Valley, MS. I have many family recipes and several of my own that I enjoy making and would love to make them for you.

The past few weeks have been really busy and I went out of town and couldn't update anything I had made. So here are a few of the things I have been working on the last 2 weeks.
My mom's birthday cake!
My sister Christie and I made this cake for my mom's birthday which was yesterday. It's a chocolate cake with a chocolate moose filling and butter cream icing. The kettle is wrapped in fondant and then we painted it a copper color. My mom has a garden with sections for each plant that are shaped very similar to this


This is a view of the kettle once it was sliced.
Graduation/Birthday cake for John
His mother sent us the info of her son. She said he loved baseball and had a list of achievements received while in school. The one's I listed on the scroll are his favorite.

Strawberry Cake
This is a 3 tier strawberry cake with a fluffy strawberry Icing.
This is a side view before I covered it with the icing.
Prom cake
The Hickory Flat High School Prom ordered this cake. They wanted a cake with teal dotes all over it.
Cheesecake Bites
I made two trays of cheesecake bites. One was a chocolate chip cheesecake and the other was a plain cheesecake.
