Take a look at these beautiful cake stands. That is if you can see past the skyline of sweets. I absolutely love this photo. Love it. I wish I could enlarge it and wallpaper my kitchen with it. This photo and the rest in this post (taken by Ashley Rose Photography) are photos of cakes from my friend Melody’s shop, My Sweet & Saucy. We’ve been internet buds from way back when I had a blogspot.com address. And since then, she’s gone from blogger herself, to superstar baker, making the most gorgeous cakes and working with the likes of Tori Spelling, Miley Cyrus and more. I just wish she wasn’t all the way in California. Actually, it’s a good thing I’m not in driving distance. For my waistline anyway.
Oh dear. I need a pink ruffle cake in my life.
Pronto.
Look at all these cakes. I mean pedestals. Big ones. Little ones. Tall ones. Short ones.
Melody also has an online store where you can find them all in one place.
Yes, pedestals. Like this pretty little pink one. Perfect for a petite little cake.
Or stack two and you can fill it with sweet little treats.
Wait, you mean you don’t have a large and small pink glass pedestal or a sweet glass dome?
That’s terrible. Unthinkable.
Would you like one? I mean all three pieces in the photo above?
I thought you might.
Melody is giving them away to one of my readers. Yippee! Thanks Melody!

It was just on Sunday celebrating a double birthday – 39th for my sister & 64th for my mom.
I just started cake decorating and trying to improve my skills. Therefore, the last cake was for my children two weeks ago where it was full of colorful roses. My kids love the frosting afterall.
My co-worker is expecting a baby – I made a special cake for the occasion.
The last time I celebrated with cake was Monday 3-28, my birthday. I had a red velvet cupcake at lunch, then my hubby brought home a beautiful strawberry cheesecake. I also indulged in a tripe chocolate cake pop cupcake, because calories do not count on my birthday!
My last experience with cake was actually on March 4, and I only know the date because that’s my birthday! My boyfriend actually offered to make ME a cake, his very first baking experience EVER! It turned out fabulous and will always be something I’ll remember. Check out my post about it!

I don’t have any pretty cake pedestals. I’d really like some.
We celebrated my husband and myself, our two daughters’ birthdays this year with homemade cakes. Instead of preferring a store bought cake, everyone wanted homemade. I made my daughter’s cake and my husband frosted it, he and my daughters made mine, my daughters and I made his. Older daughter and I will make younger daughter’s cake when her birthday comes around.
It would be nice to have some pretty cake stands to show all our homemade cakes on.
