Playing with Chocolate

So, remember that modeling chocolate ruffle flower? Well, here it is on a cake. This is a white chocolate macadamia nut cake with milk chocolate filling, wrapped in white chocolate. Yum yum! This modeling chocolate is dreamy :-)

Moment of Truth

One year ago, little thoughts started gathering themselves in my mind about becoming a self-employed cake shop owner. Them those pesky little thoughts began organizing themselves into an army and that army launched an invasion on my brain and, eventually, my brain was conquered! At this point, that army of ideas forced my brain to make my mouth move and the thoughts spilled themselves out of my mouth and into my husband's ear. Now, I had caused my poor husband's mind to be invaded too! What were we to do? Our defenses were trampled and we were under complete control. So, for the past 6 months, we have been researching, planning, signing papers, developing business plans, floor plans, equipment plans, and the like. Yesterday, all of this craziness came to fruition and we finally signed our life away at the bank (yikes!) and we are on our way!

Before

After - you have to break it down to build it up, right?
