About 2 weeks ago my Pastor's wife came and asked me to make a cake for a reception at church. It needed to serve 100 people. Stars were the theme. I can do that. So the wheels started churning and I dreamed up all sorts of elaborate plans. But in the end I went with a simple 4 tier cake with ribbon trim and a fiber optic silver star topper. I will post pictures tomorrow. Right now I am TIRED...

Making a cake is not exactly the easiest job. And when it has to be special, then the emotional drain is just added. Lookiing forward to the pics.

Sounds like you have a future in a new business venture. Do I see a store front call Creative Cakes?
