If you know me, you know that I love making first birthday cakes. I love how colorful and playful the themes tend to be. For this cake I was given creative freedom to do whatever I wanted, as long as it fed 20 people, mango was used in the filling and had an elephant front and center. Easy peasy!<br>

I think my favorite thing about making cakes is the journey. From vague idea to the exact &quot;ah ha!&quot; moment when I can envision the cake in my head is a truly magical process. It can take days, hours, weeks or just moments. I sketch ideas on random pieces of paper, I see my hands press and pull gum paste into shapes as I go on my morning run, I dream of cake. Sometimes I&#39;ll think I have a concept completely solidified but I&#39;ll see something that catches my eye like an illustrated children&#39;s book or a funky bookend on Etsy and my mind is busy again.<br>

Many months ago I was asked to make this cake for my friend&#39;s husband Karl&#39;s fortieth birthday. To celebrate, they were meeting friends and family in <a href="http://www.whistlerblackcomb.com/" target="_blank">Whistler Blackcomb</a> for a big ski weekend and Karl had specifically requested something ridiculously chocolatey for his birthday cake. What is more decadent and over-the-top chocolate than a flourless chocolate cake? The melt-in-your-mouth truffle-like luxury of this cake was the perfect choice to celebrate Karl&#39;s 14,610 days of enduring on planet Earth. </div>

A few weeks ago I received an email from Debbie to make a very special cake to celebrate the upcoming birth of her very first grandchild. The theme for the shower was &quot;monsters&quot; but the design of the cake was totally open. I wanted to find a good balance between being uber cute (like the one I made for <a href="http://dozenflours.com/2013/01/mikeys-little-monster-1st-birthday.html" target="_blank">Mikey&#39;s first birthday)</a> and sophisticated. When Debbie showed me the <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-9XZz1jPOJ1o/UcfEhEvvxDI/AAAAAAAAKWo/9y9P79f2BpY/s400/IMG_0581.JPG" target="_blank">invitation she made</a>, I was instantly inspired.</div>

So you&#39;ll never guess what I treated myself to a few weeks ago: a fancy, schmancy new camera that takes beautiful photos. And where was said camera when I made this cake? Hanging on a hook at home, packed safely in its bag. That&#39;s a great place for it but not when I get a hankerin&#39; to bake and I&#39;m away from home! Sadly I had to rely upon my phone&#39;s camera which has a reputation for being less than stellar at taking reliable photos. </div>

Oh how delighted I am to share photos from Ava&#39;s 6th birthday party! Isn&#39;t it just delightful? Ava&#39;s theme was cheerleading and some cheerleaders from the local high school came to teach all the party guests some cheer fundamentals. Several of the girls dressed in the most adorable little cheerleading outfits. Pink is Ava&#39;s favorite color so everything was pink, pink and more pink! I made pink funfetti cake (pink cake with red, white and pink sprinkles), pink raspberry French macaroons and of course pink cake pops, each adorned in a various shades of pink sugar and sprinkles. I think Ava&#39;s mom did a supreme job decorating! It felt as though I was on a set of a magazine shoot.<br>

I&#39;ve gotten a bit behind on my blog posts. I hope you can forgive me! I was going through my photos, when I realized that I never posted this charmer. Last year on an extremely warm and sunny Seattle summer day, I had the honor of baking Konrad&#39;s first birthday cake, complete with a kitschy banner tolling biplane. </div>

I spoiled my coworkers with a choice of six Bundt cakes to help make a mundane meeting taste a little sweeter. Out of the six cakes that I made, this one was devoured the fastest. Folks made a bee-line directly for it. I think the lusciously thick chocolate glaze that graced the top of this cake was just too difficult to ignore. Moreover, the classic combination of chocolate, hazelnut and coffee was just too hard to resist too. This cake is a trifecta of awesomeness.<br>

Monsters have invaded my kitchen but don&#39;t worry, they don&#39;t bite. Instead you get to bite them! Last year I was asked to make a <a href="http://dozenflours.com/2011/11/happy-bee-day.html">baby shower cake</a>, cupcakes and cake pops for Mikey&#39;s parents, eagerly anticipating Mikey&#39;s arrival. Now, a little over a year later , I was asked to help with another big event: Mikey&#39;s very first birthday. It&#39;s such an honor!<br>

I&#39;ve wanted to make this cake for a very long time. One afternoon while I was shopping for for a baby shower gift basket I was putting together, I grabbed a ring stack toy (officially it&#39;s called a Rock-A-Stack) and tossed it into my cart. As it sailed through the air and joined the other gifts it occurred to me that this iconic toy&#39;s shape and color scheme would make the perfect cake. It was all there, just begging to be &quot;cake-ified&quot;, complete with its individual ring layers and bright happy colors.<br>

Doesn&#39;t it seem like pumpkin is everywhere? It&#39;s as though the clock strikes midnight on October first and all references to summer suddenly shift to pumpkin. Not only are pumpkins literally outside the door of every grocery store in town, they are downright trendy. There&#39;s a pumpkin flavored version of just about everything, including beer, Oreos, and even ravioli!

This past Saturday I attended a baby shower for my dear friend Noella. It seems like it was just last month that <a href="http://dozenflours.com/2007/03/noella-got-married-cookies.html" target="_blank">she went to Kaua&#39;i for vacation and came back married to her best friend John.</a> My how time flies! She&#39;s pregnant with her first child, a baby girl and is due in a few short weeks. I&#39;ve been anticipating making this cake since I found out she was pregnant. I just couldn&#39;t wait to celebrate this big event in her life.<br>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">A few months ago, on an unusually stormy and humid afternoon in June, I had a cake order due for a pool party themed birthday party. <a href="http://dozenflours.com/2010/10/sam-tylers-cherries-jubilee-cake.html" target="_blank">Samantha</a> was turning ten and she was having a big party to celebrate. Unfortunately, the weather kept the sun at bay but who needs the sun when you have a cake pop cake like this?</span></div>

Each quarter at work we have a big meeting that we refer to as the &quot;Town Hall&quot;. The meetings are informative, entertaining and full of creative videos that keep everyone rapt with attention (and laughing!). Unfortunately the meeting has a reputation for being lengthy, sometimes exceeding ninety minutes in duration. To help ease the pain of sitting that long, I was asked to provide something yummy for the troupes and I gladly accepted. All together, I made six different cakes! I tried to find recipes that would appeal to everyone in attendance and I knew this one was sure to get gobbled up. Overall it was a great success and I especially enjoyed watching everyone come into the big conference room and see the freshly baked goodies waiting for them. Cake makes people smile!<br>

<span class="firstlet">O</span>ne seemingly normal February day, I received a friendly email and a cake order inquiry from Val, a fellow baker. While this does happen from time to time, this one was rather peculiar because Val was from England! A full 4800+ miles from me! Val explained that her son lived in Seattle and she wanted a surprise birthday cake for her daughter-in-law Abi. I was so excited, I couldn&#39;t write Val back fast enough to get more details. After a few emails back and forth, her cake order was finalized and I had my very first transatlantic order!<br>

It&#39;s been a long, long time since I&#39;ve make a cake like this one (or blogged in general...my apologies for that). So long, in fact, that I had to read up on some of my techniques for working with fondant. Thank goodness Elisa Strauss wrote a cookbook!<br>

When I first started there it was a definitely a startup environment: we worked a lot of long hours and didn&#39;t have a lot of money to spend on morale events. However, that changed when I volunteered to make a surprise cake for one of my coworkers on their birthday. Everyone liked it so much, I found myself volunteering to bake every time I had the opportunity.<br>

When the weather turns chilly and the days get shorter, it&#39;s the time of year that calls for a warm, soul-satisfying dessert. No one can deny that cookies right out of the oven or a bowl of hot apple crisp does job well, but sometimes you want a warm confection that&#39;s both elegant and unique. This dessert delivers on both accounts! Not only does this recipe look beautiful, taste heavenly, and travel well, but it&#39;s completely unexpected. Its cozy flavor and hearty texture is sure to make everyone happy; it&#39;s like a big bear hug for your tummy!<br>
