There are currently 2 bills about to go before congress known as PIPA (Protect IP Act) and SOPA (Senate and the Stop Online Piracy)

The names of these bills are misleading and complicated. I think we can all agree that stealing is wrong, and online piracy is bad. These bills, however, will not stop any of those things from happening, what it will do is effectively shutdown thousands (if not millions) of websites we love, including Facebook, Twitter, & other social networking sites.

If these bills pass, it will have a far-reaching negative impact on everyone in the in the world, not just in the USA.

The Senate will begin voting on January 24th. Please let them know how you feel. Sign the petition urging Congress to vote NO on PIPA and SOPA before it is too late.

Hi everyone!

We recently received the sweetest “Thank You” letter for the Christmas Tree birthday cake created back in December. The letter was so nice, we just had to share it with you!

“I wanted to thank you so much for the beautiful cake that you made for my mom and dad. It was more than I could have imagined and both of m parents were so amazed. I still can’t believe how much detail was in the cake, and then it was just as delicious as it was beautiful! You are truly so talented!

So, thanks you so much!  ~Joy “

To Miss Joy and the rest of the family & friends: You are most welcome! The cake was an absolute pleasure to create! We love to design cakes with the opportunity of  a lot of detail, It’s a nice challenge! We look forward to celebrating again with you in the future!
