What's Your Budget?

Earlier today I posted this question on my Facebook page @SweetNouveau. The reason I posted this question because I am constantly confronted with this issue. Every time a client emails me they always send me pictures that they find online and ask me to quote them a price for that cake. The problem is....when I do quote them a price for that exact cake they email me back saying that's a little more than what they are looking to spend right now. I could go on all night with stories about clients who want the world but cannot afford it. For instance I had a client email me about a price for this 3-D handbag cake and gumpaste shoe...... Let's just say that this cake took 12 hours to make and not to mention the shoe which...

Pumpkin Spice Cake

I Love the fall season. It's the first day of Septmeber and even though it's still hot outside here, I am stocking my kitchen pantry with all the ingredients for the season. Today I was in the mood for for something pumpkin. I usually wait until late September/early October to start my fall baking. Armed with cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and canned pumpkin on hand.....I decided instead of making pumpkin pie, I wanted something cakey (is that even a word? 😜).........so Pumpkin Spice Cake is it. I made some minor adjustments to my pumpkin cake batter. I wanted butter instead of all oil but I also wanted the oil for moistness. I found a happy medium with a cake with butter and oil and the results are awesome. I made a spiced brown sugar cream cheese frosting (recipe below) for the filling and finishing......which I altered my original recipe as well. I wanted something more fluffy and light, not too sweet and grainy (like other cream cheese fro...

All About Peanut Butter

Today was all about baking with peanut butter. I found these recipes soooooo easy that I could not resist making them. First, I made peanut butter drops, which also had a few different names, they are also called, peanut butter blossoms and peanut butter kisses. Either way they are peanut butter delicious!!!!!! This recipe is called Peanut Butter Drops because it has a Hershey Kiss Smack dab in the middle of the cookie. At first I thought the kiss will melt into a blob of chocolate (especially since you have to place it on the cookie right out of the oven). Well much to my surprise it did not. Peanut Butter Drops I got the recipe from the Land O' Lakes website www.landolakes.com/recipe/2579/peanut-blossom-cookies . After I made the mix I used a small cookie scoop to make the cookies uniform in size and then rolled them in sugar and placed them on a parchment lined cookie sheet. After they came out of the oven, I immediatel...
