April has been a busy, busy month!!

Well, as the title says, April has been a busy month!  And there is still one week left.  Let's recap shall we?

There were two shows where I showcased my Ruff Apparel items.  The hot items were large male collars, anything skulls, character kids' belts, and my pet placemats.  (And of course since it is Syracuse, all my orange and black basketball collars sold out as soon as the show started!)

I've also been steadily fulfilling cake pop orders for the "Out of the Darkness" cause for sucide prevention.  All red velvet and strawberry cake pop sales for the month of April are going right to this important cause.  So far, I made $85 in pops and had a $25 direct donation.  If you are still interested, I can ship them ASAP (even in time to fill Easter baskets), and you will be making a difference!!  (email: sweetchemistrycakes@gmail.com).

My 4 year old Monster and his cake!
Then my eldest son, Rory, turned 4!!!  We had a little party with friends and family at my in-laws' house, and he had a blast!  He's so OLD now!  Here is a picture of his monster cake.  It was also my brother-in-law's birthday, so I made him a surprise beer cake since he brews all his own beer.

Then I came home just in time to make a ton of kids' belts for Easter basket orders, before I had surgery on my right wrist.  And seeing that I am right handed, this wasn't easy.  I finally got the cast off today, but the pain is actually worse now!  And of course I have the itch to sew and bake, but I think my whole family will kill me!


Now it's time to get ready for Easter.  I have some adorable chick cupcakes to make for a customer, as well as one of my famous Toll House pies and an Easter bunny cake for another customer.  Next week I am making cowboy cupcakes for a school birthday party, and then cake pop favors for a party on May 1st.
Like I said: Busy, Busy Month!  But honestly, I love it.  Keep sending me your orders for cakes and collars, harness, kids belts, and pet placemats!  Also, email me for a full list of unique and delicious cake pop flavors!  Remember I ship anywhere!!
