Sugar Cookies for A Cause?? I'm there!!


Today I have teamed up with Malot's Hope to help bring their little girl one step closer to the Garrett household!! You can read all about why they have chosen Ethiopia and their journey here!!
Adoption is an amazing gift, probably the best gift you can give a child who wants to have a Mom and Dad just like everyone else!! Anyway, Mrs. Wiley's Cakes will be selling sugar cookies and 100%of the proceeds will go to Malot's Hope! So order, 2 or 10 and forget all the mess of holiday baking and just think you will be able to help Amy and Curtis bring their little girl home!!

O-H ........ I -O




Living in Columbus, Ohio we get many requests for anything BUCKEYES!! From a Red Velvet wedding cake with gray icing, to the SHOE, buckeyes and of course Jim Tressel's sweater vest.. we try to do it all!!

Modeling chocolate!!


My new love is modeling chocolate. You can do ANYTHING with it!! I love it, it can look delicate for flowers or a little more heavy for animals. It's so much fun to play with and let's me get creative for all of your cake needs!!! Here this three tier wedding cake had cascading modeling chocolate roses going down the cake.

Fondant, what is it??



More and more home bakers are getting into the world of fondant. It looks great and tastes good too! The most common question I have been asked is what is fondant?? Fondant can be made several ways, but my recipe uses marshmallows as the main ingredient! Here are some of my favorites!!
