Seeking Sweetness...

With much gratitude...

2010-11-20T17:00:00.005-06:00

I have been overjoyed and at times overwhelmed by the success of my cakes! Your encouragement and enthusiasm have been so uplifting. I am however going to have to take a breathe and re-evaluate my business plan and my very busy families needs. My husband and kids have eaten cake for dinner for the past six months, and I think it is time I get to cooking supper again! :) I will not be taking any orders until further notice, I will however continue to blog on this site for all things sweet!

Love,

Kimberly

Williams Sonoma Demonstration

I am super excited to announce that next Saturday November 20th from 2 till 3:30 I will be doing a demonstration at the Williams Sonoma Store at Town and Country. The demonstration will be how to ice the perfect holiday cake and cupcake.

If you are signed up for the emails from Williams and Sonoma you probably got one in your inbox, although you might have wondered if it was me, since they named me Kimberly Hale owner of Seeking Sweetness Cakes... But it is in fact me, Kimberly Hare!

I'll be there and I'd love to see you there too! Even if you can't stay come by and say Hi, it is always comforting to see familiar faces!

From the Girls...

2010-11-12T18:22:00.002-06:00

This cake was made to celebrate a very special birthday. The birthday girl is a very special lady and has some very lovely friends, who wanted to make sure she felt extra special on her day.

This double dark chocolate cake is filled and iced with a very cream chocolate butter cream, and adorned with three sugar paste fantasy flowers I made that are very generously dusted with European Glitter. Nothing says Happy Birthday more than BLING every girl knows that!

Thing 4...

2010-11-12T18:17:00.003-06:00

This cake was made for Atticus's very first birthday. I am so incredibly proud of this cake. Atticus is the "Thing 4" in his family and his Mom knew early on that would be the theme of his birthday party.

This cake is half chocolate, half vanilla all covered in butter cream icing. The "Things" I hand cut out of fondant from a picture I printed online, and colored with edible icing writer pens. I am so very happy with the finished product!

Happy 1st Birthday Atticus! May God bless you and keep you!

Jolly Rodger...

2010-11-12T18:13:00.002-06:00

This cake was made for my dear friend Vanessa's husband Eric. He is such a cool dude, and has the two cutest little dudes. All together her house if full of pirate boys, and she needed a cake to celebrate Eric's birthday. This dark chocolate cake is iced and filled with a very rich and creamy butter cream icing and I cut the scull and cross bones out of fondant and then painted it with a white luster dust, so that it has just enough sparkle for Vanessa to enjoy, but not too much shimmer for all of her boys!

Happy Birthday Eric!

The petit fours are a rich lemon with the brides new initials on the top of each.

2010-11-12T17:39:00.002-06:00

These cupcakes were made to celebrate a very youthful 70th birthday! I was specifically asked for something fun and sparkly, so these lemon cakes are topped with a generous swirl of traditional butter cream, and adorned with a chocolate fondant disk and on the very tippy top a little flower! Then as if only appropriate generously sprinkled with European edible disco dust!

Happy Birthday

This cake was made to celebrate the wedding ceremony today that has bound Jeff and Rani in Holy Matrimony today and always.

Rani's cake was a dense carrot cake with a cream cheese icing. I was delighted when Rani chose carrot cake because I personally love it, but yesterday as the the oven filled the kitchen with the warm smell of Cinnamon I was especially excited for Rani and Jeff. What a wonderful spicy fall flavor for a wedding on a crisp November evening.

Jeff's cake was classic dark chocolate cake iced in a creamy traditional and masculine chocolate butter cream icing and adorned with 7 pounds of chocolate covered strawberries. Yes, 7 lbs. That is a luscious duo chocolate cake and chocolate dipped strawberries!

Congratulations and blessing to the beautiful couple!
May God guide your every step together today and always!

Congratulations Jacob Henry...

2010-10-30T07:20:00.002-05:00

Last night our son Jacob was awarded his yellow belt in Tae Kwon Do. The ceremony was so beautiful. We got to see the young black belt boys test for their second belt, and they had to break five boards in 20 seconds. It was serious stuff, the boys who ranged in age from about 10 to 15 testing last night would not be eligible for another test for six months if they didn't pass last night. Thankfully each boy was able to pass. Jacob was in awe and can't wait for his turn.
Thankfully yellow belt comes first, and that is what we're celebrating! There was a potluck at the dojo following the ceremony. Our family brought cake... :)

This french vanilla cake is filled with a raspberry filling and iced in traditional butter cream (Jacob's favorite cake) Master Kim wrote congratulations in Korean, per Jacob's request, and I piped it in blue butter cream.

Congratulations to our Little Man Jacob Henry, and to all of the boys who were awarded their new belts last night! Well done boys! Keep up the amazing work! Focus your Eyes... Focus your mind... Focus your body... Tae Kwon Do...

This cake was made for a little baby girl's very first birthday. Her mother cleverly decided to do her monogram on her party cake. I really love this idea. I think it is a very pretty, feminine and personalized idea. There will be plenty of themed parties when you can't do anything but Micky Mouse on demand, so I really like the simplicity of her idea.

As party favors she is going to have round cookies made with her monogram too!

This is a moist french vanilla cake with a raspberry filling and iced entirely with a traditional butter cream icing!

The bride had an amazing mother who picked up her cake for her. Both bride and mother have done many cakes before and so the pick up and delivery only seemed natural for them.

Congratulations to the Bride and Groom on this beautiful October day. What an amazing day to be joined together as husband and wife in front of our God and their family and friends. This is a lovely day, I am wishing you only fond and lovely memories of today and wishing you all the happiness being bound together in Holy Matrimony brings!

James, may God bless you and fill you with the fruits of his spirit as you grow!

Got-- Married--

This cake was made to celebrate the lovely couples matrimony. The couple were married on the beach so seashells seemed only appropriate. The bride very frugally requested a beautiful and ornate smaller tiered cake and a sheet cake to serve first. I really was most impressed with that concept. It really allows you to have the cake that you want and also be able to serve everyone.

Both cakes are a french vanilla cake with butter cre

am icing. The tiered cake also has a strawberry filling between each layer of cake.

I made the seashells out of poured white milk chocolate.

Congratulations to the Mr and Mrs. I am wishing you a very happily ever after!
