A Rescued Valentine's Day

She arrived with roses in her arms when she came to pick up her kitty cake that we made for her that evening. Alison Valentine was a singer who ordered a cake to be make in a 2D shape of her logo, a white kitten. "Are those flowers for me?" I asked, she replied "Yes, do you want some?" I smiled and presented her cake to her. "I love it!" She said while blushing and then proceeded to pick through the large bundle of roses. "This is for you." Thank you!" I said excitedly as I extended my hand to accept the rose. "My boyfriend and I just broke up, this is perfect, you made my night" "OMG" She exclaimed. "You have to come to my performance tonight you might meet your Valentine there, please come." I smiled and thanked her for the invitation but declined, it was a cold snowy day and I didn't feel like coming out. "You really should, I'd love to see you there. Anyway, I'll put your name on the list to get in in case you change your mind." And with a few key strokes on her iphone I was confirmed and she left. Thirty minutes later I had changed my mind, and I accompanied with my brother and his girlfriend later that evening headed for Soho to the Maison O where Alison was performing. 

I am so glad I did go out because I had a blast and danced all night long. I took this picture with Alison in her red dress just before her performance.

Thank you Alison for a wonder Valentine's Day glad you convinced me to come out!

Xoxo - Dana

It's All About Timing.

We were asked to make a clock cake for one of the people who was instrumental in installing "The Clock" exhibit at Lincoln Center an art instillation by video artist Christain Marclay I must say truly a masterpiece and a must see if your ever in a city that has it (it travels around the world). So, we made an old fashioned clock, you know like the one we all saw in school in the past. It had a first, second, and third hand and was very visible to all especially if you were running late (I remember those days). Anyway, decorated all  in buttercream and done in the colors black, white and red for the third hand. Truly a classic!
