"Twin"kle "Twin"kle double happiness!

This week I got an opportunity to work on twin's party. First was Dr. Suess baby shower theme. I didn't grow up in the States, so I am not familiar with Dr. Suess story book. I did an online research on google, flickr, wiki, and much more!This was the inspiration from our customers. Her is what we come up for the twin baby shower. The cake was a strawberry shortcake. A vanilla sponge cake with macerated strawberries and strawberry buttercream. I covered it with blue turquoise vanilla buttercream. Decorated them with baby onesie, rattle, and silver socks. Congratulations for Melissa and Chris! They are expecting a little girl and a little boy.

Spring Birthday Party at Polkadots

Birthday is the best holiday! Hangout with your closed friends, chit chat, play, and the best part is lots of presents. Last week, Avery turned 10. Her mom decided to bring 10 girlfriends, laid out picnic blanket, brought her rabbit, goodies bags, games, and color pencil. They hung out in front of our porch for few hrs, of course I have to snap a few pics!
 
Here is the birthday girl with her furry friend:

Matching party favor bags in pink, blue, green, and brown colors:

Comfy picnic blanket, nice weather, coloring activities with girlfriends,  and lots of presents:

I hope you had an awesome birthday celebration at Polkadots Avery! The "damage" for Avery's party last Saturday (cupcakes and drinks) for 10 girls and 5 adults less than $60!

Of course the best part, I got to keep all their drawings. I was teary.. happy tear.

Can't wait till the next birthday party! Oh, I wish I can be 10 forever yeah! Sometime growing up isn't as fun.

It's going to be an exciting week!!

Mission accomplished... I slept in on Sunday! That was awwwwwsome. Then off to work out and had some calamari salad at North restaurant. Yum!!

Not sure what I was thinking...., I signed up and planned to have 2 big events during the week, custom cakes, cookies, and of course "That takes the cake" event.This last one will be so much fun! Can't wait till Saturday morning.

First event on Wednesday, February 24 7:30PM-10:30PM at The Allan House "The Mad Hatter Tea Party." We will be sponsoring the first Catalyst 8 event of 2010. 

We will be have a dessert table, full of our signature cupcakes - red velvet, honey and chai, pumpkin, and blackbottom. We'll also bring our "Mad Hatter" cake, some bars, and cake lollipop. All proceeds from the event go toward the Catalyst 8 Boost Rental Subsidy program, which awards rental subsidies to Austin-area emerging and underserved arts groups.Check out their website for more information.

I can't wait to complete these project on Wednesday, and take a  picture of the dessert table. Fun fun fun!
