Cobra Cake – I Ate Snakes

They don’t greet you at the door when you come home, offering you a ball to throw for them to fetch, their bodies shaking with excitement.

I received an order […] Read more…
Flower Power
I just got back from a fabulous gum paste flower class given by the extremely talented Jacqueline Butler of Petalsweet Cakes in San Francisco.
