About Me
- Name: Camille
- Location: Virginia via New Jersey, United States
I'm a stay-home mom of a four-year-old boy and a two-year-old girl. I'm a bookworm and bibliophile. I'm a hobby baker and cake decorator (but not so much lately). I'm a former first-grade teacher and will go back to teaching after kids are in school. I love coffee and crossword puzzles, maps and libraries, the smell of Dreft and irises, playdates and baby smiles, gin and tonics and the changes of the seasons, road trips and used bookstores.

Wow, beautiful. Are they marzipan? How did you get such a nice photo with the candle flames? Is that your new camera? Flames/lights always make my photo blurry, no matter what setting I used.
Funky-- Thank you! Those dolphins are color flow. And everything else is regular icing. Oh, but the shells are candy melts done in my seashell mold. My husband took the picture (with our old camera). He said it was probably because the room was so bright that it came out good with the candles lit. It was like 2 pm in a sunny kitchen.
Wow! Cool cake! I'd hate to cut into it and eat it.
Wow, beautiful cake and a great photo of it! You're very talented. I bet your niece was over the moon about it.
Wow, that is so pretty!!!
This is awesome!! I would LOVE to be able to make something like this!!
Looks really cool. I never forgot the cake my neighbor made for my sister's birthday (under ten). She made a cake shaped like a doll and the icing was a bazillion mini dollops of icing
Wow! You made that?? I love it! I bet your niece was thrilled! You should seriously start a business making special occassion cakes.
Thanks everyone!
Liesl--I actually applied for a business license from the state and the last thing I had to do was get my kitchen inspected. But our house is too small and we didn't have enough storage space to have business ingredients separate from home ingredients and there were a bunch of other things I wasn't ready to do until maybe kids are older. Thanks for the compliment!
