Hip Hop Angry Birds Cake
A cake I made this week for Kpop Dance group ‘I <3 Dance’! The Angry Birds represent some of the dancers themselves.
The birds are made from fondant, and the cake is made from strawberry shortcake. I really like how the red bird looks so angry because he is now a high school bully from the 80’s.
I don’t know why it was the first thing that popped into my head okay.
I thought “You have dreamy blue eyes that a gal could drift in for days with nothing but a good book and a strawberry margarita.” would sound weird.
Oh gosh, thank you so much! Just practice practice practice! That’s all it takes. I would love to see some of your work someday! ohgosh im blushing.]
That is the opposite of creepy.
One time I was eating in a seafood restaurant in NY and my friend was in the bathroom so I was at our table alone. So I look across the restaurant and I saw Jude Law.
And before I could stop myself I go up to him and say hello and he says hello back.
So I got really nervous and said “I like your… cheese biscuits.” And he said what. And I said what. And then my friend arrived and dragged me away and I found myself yelling “RESPECT THE LAW!”
He moved tables.

Stuffed Animal Donkey Cake
Sometimes I get to make cute things! A cake I made last week for a client who wanted it to match his daughter’s stuffed toy she’s had since she was a kid. He was just too cute, I was almost sad to see him go!
Carved Character Death by Chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream, chocolate chips and dark chocolate ganache. His head is RKT covered in modeling chocolate and fondant.
AnonymousYes! We are still accepting applicants for our Summer Interns until June 20th.

If you or someone you know is interested, you can find more information about It here.
AnonymousOhgosh, thank you!
I haven’t really been doing this long enough to give anyone tips, but if you like papercrafting you should totally check out PlaidCushion on Tumblr.
She inspired me to start fandom papercrafting really.
I can’t remember if I’ve posted this before, I put together a quick supply list for you- hopefully this helps!
You don’t have to work in frames like I do, in fact it’s rather expensive to. You can create pieces on thick covered cardboard and present like that instead.
When you are making papercrafts, always think in pieces! The urge to just cut out a whole body will always be there, but remember that dimension is better achieved in pieces.
Don’t be intimidated by the blades, or be afraid to take things apart if you don’t like them!
Either way, have fun!
Doctor Who Cookies!
This time with Ten, Eleven, Rose, River Song, Captain Jack and Amy- throw in a Tardis or two and we are all set! This papercraft style is my favorite.
Oops I Sterek’d Papercraft?
This Teen Wolf rewatch with Lady has slowly worked at my sanity so I had to make something cute and not emotionally devastating.
This frame was damaged, but too small and cute so I worked with it anyway. How about I do a small giveaway for it? More details tomorrow!
Hufflepuff House Cookies
An order from last week- a few months ago I made some jumbo Slytherin house cookies so these were in the same style. Just need to make Ravenclaw and Gryffindor now!
Cricket’s Shark Week Cookies (Baking for Bros #2)
It’s been awhile since I posted a Baking for Bros Recipe- so Cricket decided to help me with this one. You know when you are… uh… PMSing pretty hard, and you want something chocolaty, crunchy, chewy and salty- all at the same time? Well, this is the cookie for you. And they are so damn easy to make, you have no excuse to get up off that couch and stop watching Tanked. We get it, you are Italian and make fish tanks. Jeez.
Ingredients: (Makes about 3 Dozen.)
- 3 1/2 Cups Flour
- 1 Tsp Baking Soda
- 1 Tsp Salt
- 1 1/3 Cups Butter
- 1 3/4 Cups Brown Sugar
- 3/4 Cups and 2 Tbs and 1 Tsp White Sugar
- 1 Tbs and 2 1/4 Tsp Vanilla
- 1 Egg
- 1 Egg Yolk
- 3 Cups Peanut Butter Chips
- 1 Cup Chocolate Chips
- 1 Cup Broken Pretzels
*Tips: (Ant’s tips. Not Cricket’s. Because he sucks at baking.)
- Make sure you melt your butter beforehand, so that it isn’t hot.
- Room temperature eggs only! Cold eggs will ruin this up, man.
- 6 on 1 cookie sheet, or else they will stick to one another.
What to Do:
- Pre-Heat oven to 325 Degrees. If you play a little music, this helps. Maybe get it some roses, a little wine. Treat her nice.
- Sift together flour, baking soda and salt. Whisk them together to remove any clumps that may have snuck by while you were distracted by internet hunks.
- Cream together butter, brown sugar and white sugar. Nice and fluffy!
- Beat in vanilla, egg and egg yolk. Look how easy this is, you are on your way to cookie goodness.
- Mix in sifted mixture. Slowly, you don’t want this all over the place. This isn’t a teen comedy.
- Stir in both chocolate and peanut butter chips. Stir in crushed pieces of pretzel. Cricket says you can smash ‘em with your hands, but since we aren’t Vikings use a knife and chop them into small pieces. Or whatever size you want. I don’t care.
- Drop onto greased sheet with ice cream scoop. These are bakery-style cookies, so they will be pretty big. Just the way we like it, uh-huh. Use break and bake method, if preferred. (It sounds complicated but ohmygosh it’s not at all. Google that mess.)
- Place about 3 inches apart. Top with crushed pieces of pretzel.
- Bake for 15-17 minutes per sheet. Cool on trays for 1 minute, and then place on wire racks. Or burly up yo’ mouth and eat that suckah’ hot as hell. We bleed once a month, I think we can handle a little hot cookie.
While these were Crick’s idea, the man has no idea how to bake so I helped him out. They hit all the right spots, lemme’ tell ya’. Salty, sweet, chewy and crunchy. They are the perfect treat for when everything and everyone is annoying.
It’s a boring, rainy day. I think I’ll make some cookies!
Annnd Finn is done! Another addition to my forced perspective Adventure Time papercraft piece.
