Mary Kay Event!

I attended a Mary Kay event last night in Cerritos. I was invited by Jessica Wilbur. I met her at my work Whole Foods. She and her colleagues were very nice. They were also supportive of my business. I got some new business and make-up! Thank you Jessica!
 

Sunny Day!

These cupcakes are dipped in chocolate ganache. Then decorated with a chocolate sandwich cookie and buttercream. I made these at work.

Congratulations!
I was so honored to have taken part in the making of your wedding cake.
The cake was four-tiered. 
The Groom's cake and second tier were chocolate cake layered with orange and yellow Bavarian cream.  
The chocolate cake was special because it had Wilbur's Cocoa in it! Wilbur, PA is  JD's home town. 
The third tier was yellow cake with fresh peaches. 
Lastly, the bottom tier was vanilla cake colored orange with a lemon cream cheese mousse. 
The flowers are Gerber Daises. 
The event was absolutely beautiful. 
Thank you for letting me be a part of it. :)
