Sweet 16...how sweet it really is!




A sweet 16th birthday party for one of my clients consisted of two of my best Sweet Treats....Red Velvet cup cakes and decadent brownie lollipops.

I tinted the cream cheese icing on the cupcakes to match the pink theme. They were a great hit. But the birthday girl is a chocolate lover through and through. What better way to celebrate her and her love of chocolate than my fun and over the top taste of brownie lollipops. Each was covered in chocolate and then dipped in several different coatings: Mini Reese's chips, a peanut-pecan nut mix, Heath bar chips and white chocolate chunks.

Yummmm!!!

Is a June bride really in vogue with today's world?


While June is still a very popular month for weddings, it falls to third place behind July and August as the most popular months for a wedding. in 4th and 5th place we find September and October. Some brides are opting for weddings on a Friday or Sunday.

We can credit the change in tradition to several factors.
The expense of a wedding can be dramatically lowered when you plan your special day during a time that might be considered "off season". The factor of money has lead many a bride to opt for a January wedding and a honeymoon in the beautiful warm waters of the Caribbean. The lack of days available in the month of June also push a bride to consider an alternate month. Additionally, a couple may decide to marry on a day that has personal meaning for them.

What month did you have your wedding?
