What a Raquet !

We LOVE making wedding cakes!!!! But a girl's gotta have some fun too!!!

We were contacted by Phil Pharr from the University of Florida Athletic Association about a birthday cake for his wife who was turning 50. We quickly gathered all the details: Taryn (his wife) played on a tennis team loved cala lilies and pucci fabric.

The custom designed Pucci raquet cake for Taryn!


Thank you Taryn and Phil for letting us be a part of this celebration in your life! We wish you a year filled with blue skies and sunshine!!



"It was delicious and you did a spectacular job. Thanks again."
Taryn Pharr

"It was awesome and as good as I expected. Thanks so much for your help. We loved it."
Phil Pharr
(YES! IT IS ALL EDIBLE)

Rockin Sweet Sixteen!!!!


Meagan turned 16 and rocked the house with her ROCKIN SWEET SIXTEEN PARTY! How fun!! Her theme was a rock concert and the girls at Masterpiece Weddings did a great job with all the details.



It was a thrill for me to see Meagan get excited over her cake. I had a great time meeting with Meagan and her Mom and Dad. I gathered all the ideas and started sketching. We came up with the basic ideas and design. But I was thrilled when Mark sent me a sketch that Meagan had made. It was SO cool...a triple pink rocking guitar!!



I hope this year will be a great one! Thanks for letting me be a part of your "Rockin Sweet Sixteen" celebration!!!!!!

We wish you a day filled with blue skies and sunshine. Thank you for all that you do for us...for your friendship, love and support. For making the weddings you are involved with a masterpiece memory that will never be forgotten. And for being willing to teach your craft to others.




But today, your birthday has new meaning in the realm of Let's eat cake! Today is the deadline to MAKE MELISSA PAY! So, blog, blog, blog. Each blog you post about the fund raiser, Let's eat cake, to benefit the children at St. Jude's, Melissa will contribute another $1.00. The other idea out there is to make a contribution in Melissa's name for her birthday.



Thank you Melissa for taking on the ginormous task to raise $50,000.00!!! If we all work together we can make it happen!!!!

Let's eat (MORE) Cake!


Remember the old commercials where they tell how a friend tells and friend who tells a friend who tells a friend, and the pictures keep multiplying on the screen. If we each asked a friend to ask a friend to ask a friend for a donation for "Let's eat cake" we may be amazed how the $ would multiply. Big donations are wonderful!!! But all the small ones can add up quick if we just start asking our family,friends and neighbors.



So I challenge you to give $10.00 and ask 10 other people to give $10.00 and so on..... We can help these children with Let's Eat Cake by donating. (That's only two mornings at Starbucks. )

So, there you have it, now the rest is up to you.

"Let's Eat (birthday) Cake!"


While contemplating what more we could do to raise funds for the "Let's eat Cake" fundraiser...my mind drifted to gifts, then gift giving. That really is what it is all about, giving the gift of a healthier life to children suffering with cancer.




Well, Melissa, has a birthday next week. I have wondered, and wondered what to get her for a birthday gift. SO...I decided to give a donation to "Let's Eat Cake" in her honor. Now, if we all did that just think of the results!! It would be a win win situation all around!!!




Please help me make Melissa's birthday her happiest one ever!!!!!!!

Let's Eat Cake!

Won't you Please help us?!?!



I got up at 5:00 AM this morning and turned on my computer, as usual to check out the blogs!, and prepared to start my day! But when I read Melissa's blog I stopped and did a U turn. I gave prayerful consideration how to help the children suffering with cancer at St. Judes.

I remember where I was when Melissa called me to tell me about her dream...and it was still a dream at that point. I was in the produce section of Publix, trying to hurry and finish my shopping. The more she shared the more distracted I was from apples and asparagus! I was excited, supportive, and proud to of what Melissa wanted to accomplish. She asked if I would participate and of course I said " YES!" But I want to do more to help than just be excited, supportive and participate.

I thought immediately of all the beautiful inspiration boards that are posted regularly on the Masterpiece Wedding blog...I would do my first inspiration board. I want it to be an inspiration and I am not very good with things like this so the first call went to Erika. I gave her my ideas, and she spent the morning making them a reality. Look at those faces!!! We all have to help.

Melissa put her money where her mouth is. I must do the same. I will donate 10% of all my wedding cake sales for the month of February. Please give prayerful consideration to what you can do...and then follow through. Thank you!
