3D cakes are so much fun!

Many people do not realize that cakes can be made to look like anything....I mean ANYTHING! This weekend I will be making 2 of them. The first will be a huge cheeseburger with french fries and the other will be a Huskey puppy. The cheeseburger will be for a potluck we'll be attending for the families of the deployed soldiers. What says potluck better than a cheeseburger?!?!?! The huskey will be for a little girl's birthday party for Tuesday.

The cheeseburger will be great to do because my son is wanting a Spongebob birthday party this year. He'll be 5 years old in November and he totally loves Spongebob. He was debating between Spongebob, Wall-E, and Power Rangers Jungle Fury. He's finally decided on Spongebob so his birthday cake will be a Krabby Patty (cheeseburger) with Spongebob on top.

Stay tuned for pictures!

Enchanted Sweets has gone INTERNATIONAL!

For those of you who don't know, my husband is deployed overseas. It's very hard not having him around and my son and I are counting down the days until he is home with us again!

Since I know the hardships, first-hand, of being a military wife I decided to help my fellow military families out. I will be more than honored to decorate a cake for any deployed soldier as my gift to them. I just recently made this Spiderman cake for a little girl whose mom is deployed with my husband. Next month, I am making a cake for a soldier's wife who will be celebrating her birthday without him. He too is deployed with my husband. Of course, I'm going to love the look of surprise on her face when I deliver it because I know how special it will be.

Again, for any Iowa soldier deployed fighting for our country, please contact me regarding a special surprise cake for a birthday, anniversary, baby, etc. I will be more than happy to do this for you since you are doing so much for us on the homefront. I will try my best to deliver within so many miles of Des Moines.

Check out this beautiful cupcake stand that my wonderful husband and father-in-law made for me. I think it turned out beautiful! Jessica used it for her wedding in May and she said she received so many compliments!
