I can always remember being fascinated with cake, even as a young child. My mom would order cakes from a lady named Fern and my most vivid memory is of the cheese burger cake she made. I thought it was amazing!
After I got married I always made sure my husband had some sort of birthday cake. At that point in time I was clueless about cake design and thought the best decorations I could buy came from off the baking isle at the grocery store.
Then about 2006, cake decorating shows became all the rage, and they were such an inspiration to me. So, in 2007 I purchased my first shaped pan and made my daughter her 2nd birthday cake, it was Dora the Explorer. After that I was hooked and a month later I made a 16" fondant covered cake for my husbands nursing graduation party. From that point on at every child's birthday I made a cake, and I kept trying to push my cake decorating limits to see what I could accomplish.
In mid 2009 I entered the St. Francis Hospital baking competition and won 2nd place in the cake division.
In October 2009 at the urging of a good friend, The Cake Mom opened for business.
The cake is the centerpiece, and in my opinion the most important part of any good party. My goal is to make quality cakes that not only look spectacular but also taste delicious as well.
