Baby B's Cake



So..... I'm going to be a Grammie!

Quite an exciting year for me...Yes, it's true. My daughter is having my first grandchild, a little boy, sometime around January 5. We just recently had a beautiful baby shower just to get a glimpse of how spoiled he will be.

I made my usual coconut cake which I fondly refer to as my "wedding" cake because adding flavors to it is so simple! This was a whipped cream and blackberry filling with my usual Italian Meringue Buttercream frosting. The ribbon decoration was done with a rose leaf pastry tip.  One of my wonderful sisters made these cute little cake pops that were absolutely fabulous! We didn't even collaborate and our colors were almost perfect!

I made these adorable little mustache suckers that were just poured in solid chocolate for the favors.


I can't believe I'm going to be a Grammie! How fun is that!
