Bluebelle Has Been Busy Baking

Bluebelle* the bluebird has been busy baking cakes in anticipation of Sophie and Flossy's visit to the cake shop.


She got up very early to bake her cakes, so there would be plenty of time to frost them before her cake shop customers arrived.


Bluebelle baked two new chocolate cakes--one with chocolate frosting and one with strawberry buttercream frosting. She frosted the cakes generously in anticipation of Sophie and Flossy's delight.


Bluebelle baked the cakes with lots of love. She is so excited about Sophie and Flossy's visit!



* Did you notice that the new bluebird character now has a name? Both Fabiola and then Lucille suggested the name "Bluebelle." Each thought of the name on her own, and I think it's perfect. Both Faby and Lucille have won their choice of any item in my Etsy shop, plus Faby has also won a handmade miniature cake of her choice. Congratulations you two! And thank you so much to everyone who left name suggestions. They were all sweet names, but "Bluebelle" instantly felt right to me. I'm sorry there couldn't have been more winners this time, but I'll have another giveaway in the fall. You'll have another chance then! :-)

If you had won the giveaway, which item from my shop would you have chosen? Or would you prefer a cake, and if so, what kind? I'm interested to know your answers. Until next time, keep it fun! xoxo Jennifer

  15. Congrats to the lucky winners - but especially to Bluebelle for having such a lovely name now! I kind of envy Sophie and Flossy that they're able to taste all those treats when they're visiting Bluebelle's shop. It would be hard to choose but I must admit... there's a reason why Fluby is a strawberry junkie, it runs in the family, so I would go for a piece of that yummy one with the frosting of strawberry buttercream. Oh my, just writing this made my hips gain one pound more... *sigh* ;O)

    Hugs

  41. Bluebelle is so very cute and the name suits her well. The cakes look yummy, I think it's great that you are having so much fun learning new things working with polymer clay. I would have a hard time choosing between the 3 baking sets in your etsy shop, they are all wonderful.
