These are a few moments from what we call “Graduation Weekend” AKA The weekend you have no life outside of
work and will collapse on your couch with a BOTTLE of wine watching your feet swell into the size of
watermelons weekend.
We started off with the prep work...
30 pounds of Cream cheese getting ready to be turned into 20 Gallons worth of icing. 2 gallons of Lemon Curd (We actually burned through this in about 3 days and had to make MORE!!) Our poor refrigerator jam packed with cake layers. We ended up doing 63 layered cakes this weekend. ( What you see was only half!)This is a 2 tiered Nurse cake for Skylar. Everything was hand made by the Aspen queen… and yes it’s ALL edible!There were for a large graduation party that was just amazing. We did a 2 tiered cake to look like stacked books with the graduate earning her degree in Criminal Justice. They had an assortment of cupcakes with hand made toppers of Diplomas and Caps along with custom sugar cookies to match.

My chef instructor in culinary school always said you can tell a baker walking down the street as they always have flour on their shoes. That’s totally me – All the time. We don’t always eat donuts but when we do – We drink champagne too. ( Which we drink every Saturday – Because it’s Saturday.)
Geeze what a crazy weekend! Thanks to everyone who included us in their celebration!
