We wanted a scary theme for his “Frightening Fiftieth” and Mary came thru with exactly what I wanted plus extra. Included in her creation was a fondant graveyard on top of one of her torte style cakes that featured miniature shortbread tombstones and white chocolate skulls surrounded by a custom chocolate fence and gate. The slicing cake was a fallen tombstone surrounded by dirt that was actually chocolate cake crumbs! In addition to her creativity, Mary also was very accommodating by delivering and setting up the cakes for me for the party. The texture and flavor was another treat. The praline bourbon pecan was absolutely sinful and the apricot cream cheese was a decadent combination with the white champagne cake. I have since ordered a wonderful birthday cake (Raspberry Bliss) that was equally as tasty.

I had her White Chocolate Ginger Tea Cake. Moist cake and creamy white chocolate is what you taste at first, then comes a delicate ginger and tea flavor …I lingered over every single bite, just to make sure I “tasted it all”. And it was gorgeous!

I had the privilege and honor to meet the cake maker at my cousins wedding last Saturday. Her cake was the center of everyone’s attention. Not only was the cake beautiful it’s flavoring was exquisite and the layers were rich and Moist. I am definitely booking Mary for my wedding next year. Can’t wait…..
