Kelly and Buddy were wonderful. They came around and talked to all of us like familiar friends. Buddy helped each team and didn't fire any off us!
Before I show you the cakes I need to give you a little background on what we were assigned to do.
We were all assigned a theme and our theme was the hardest. All the the embellishments on our cake had to be piped and no one on our team bakes, we all cook. The other cakes were embellished with fondant. The embellishments were cut out with cookie cutters and fastened to the cake. The fondant cakes were stunning...ours not so much. Our cake wasn't the prettiest, but vote for it anyway - PLEASE!!! Tell your friends, facebook it, tweet it....get our cake all the votes you can get!
Our cake "Here Comes the Sun"
"Take a Bow"
"Snow Day"
"Mod Squad"
"Fall for Me"
We had a great time - vote as many times as you can!
..and Diva, I had a great time going to dinner with you tonight! You are a doll and I hope we can meet up again.

Umm, is it just me or does Kelly seem EXTREMELY tanned? It looks a little weird.....just saying....
Who-hoot!!! So proud of all of you! I am doing a post today so cna I use any of your photos of the ckaes?
Jen since my content is portected by copyright, I would rather share some of the art from the media kit we were given.
HI Katherine-i took it down. I did not know copyrighted as saw the images of the cakes on other sites and got super exicted for all food bloggers. They are removed. Glad you had a great time!
Katherine, it must have been a thrill to participate. It looks like you all had a blast. I'm heading over to cast my vote. Have a great day. Blessings...Mary
Great job Katherine, I am voting for you.
Voted. Beautiful job, Katherine for a very important cause. Yay for you.
I voted!
Oh I wish I had a chance to meet you! I hope your trip back home was comfortable. The cakes look fantastic!!!
Wow!! That's tooo cool.
Those are fantastic! Looks like too much fun and all for such a terrific cause. Great photos!
Katherine, I tried to vote for you last night, but ran into technical trouble. I had to register and then wait until I got an email confirmation. The email never came. When I tried to vote today, I got a message that my registration is not confirmed. When I tried to reregister, it said my email address is already in use. Has anyone else had this problem?
It looks like you had such an awesome time! Your cake is absolutely gorgeous. It is so colorful and (don't tell) my favorite by far.
No worries about not meeting. I wish we had been able to but I totally understand...looks like you were INSANELY busy. Next time - and there will BE a next time.
check out www.creativedesignscakes.com for the next big thing in the world of cake decorating...no need to buy the big new cricut cakes when you can use the one that is already out there. I just LOVE Linda McClure's DVD and ideas!
