I used the last few days to work on some non-food related projects before I have 7 straight cake-pop orders in 12 days.  The shark tags and gummy sharks in bags are for my son's preschool in a week or so.  Even though his birthday isn't until August, the class celebrates all summer birthdays in May.  We finally landed on sharks after a lot of persuasion away from yet ANOTHER dinosaur theme! :) This is part of his treat he is bringing, take a look! 
The second project is adorable, and totally not my idea (thanks Carli).  I am, however, going to use it for a ton of other themes, and it was really fun to make.  A flower-based centerpiece theme with a personalized center. Jake will be turning 2 in June, and loves Cars! Take a look.
As always, I LOVE to hear feedback and ideas from all of you! I am excited to show you all the cake pops coming soon! I added a Facebook page for my business to keep up with new posts as well. Have a great week, everyone! 
 
The next week or two will really prove if I can balance teaching, family, and a business on the side! :)  I have to remember for next year how many events take place in the beginning of May. I am excited to post pictures of some of the centerpieces and cake-pops I am working on from now- mid May.  Alfonso has me creating some zombie cake-pops for his son's birthday, I have graduation pops for Jody, a baby shower centerpiece for Donna with a "Bedtime stories" theme, and 1st communion chocolate-covered strawberries.  The week following I will post pictures of a very cute, and simple, centerpiece idea with a "Cars 2 theme", a 21st birthday pop bouquet, and more Hellp Kitty pops, followed by a huge 1st birthday for my girl Alena!!  For now, check out the clown centerpiece from AJ's 1st birthday, Meaghan's graduation invites, and a boxed arrangement for Hannah's 20th.
I would love to hear your feedback, and thanks so much for stopping by my site. This is such a fun adventure, keep the ideas coming!! :)
 
Never in a million years did I think I would say "Make sure to get your orders in to me far in advance", at least this early in the game.  I feel so incredibly lucky to have had so much interest in my small little side-gig!  Initially I was over-whelmed for a second, but I am LOVING the cool ideas and orders that are coming in! I can't wait to get my hands on this 21st birthday bouquet in a few weeks, and I have some fun baby shower centerpieces for 3 showers too! Over the last week I have worked on some new graduation invites (will post in a week or 2), 1st birthday tags, cheetah cake-pops, and Hello Kitty cake pops.  For more cake-pops click here: /cake-pops-and-themed-goodies.html Take a look, I would love your feedback!  
Also, please check out my monthly promotions page /monthly-promotions-and-new-creations.html for all of the recent projects I have made for clients as well as monthly specials!!  Mother's Day is right around the corner on May 13th, so don't forget your special ladies!

Basic chocolate bar made into a cute favor. Label with thank you message would be placed next to the ribbon. Inexpensive, yet classy!
 
This week was amazing, and I can finally share a few of the things I have been working on!  I was lucky enough to re-create a Hello Kitty Tea Party Invitation for Lilly's 4th Birthday. Lilly's mom found the Invite idea on someone's blog, and wanted to see if I could make it for her.  Take a look:
