Cindy's Cake Creations

I kind of stumbled upon cake decorating by accident. I’ve always loved
cooking and I am addicted to watching cooking shows on TV. I had never
really baked anything before, let alone a cake.
One day, an episode of Martha Stewart came on where she baked a monkey
head in a Pyrex bowl. I thought, “That is the coolest thing ever! I’m so going
to make that!” So I did. I baked it and spent hours decorating it for my little
brother for his birthday. He loved it!
Looking back at the monkey head, it was well… very bad! Boy, have I come
a long way since then! But I was so proud then, and I knew at that moment I
had been bitten by the cake decorating bug! The rest as they say is history.
After posting the photo on Facebook, I received such great feedback from
everyone. I started getting lots of requests from family and friends.
