We love seeing images from our wedding clients! And we especially love hearing the stories behind their engagements and inspiration behind their wedding details and personalization. This particular wedding has an adorable story behind their PB & J inspiration.

Phoebe (“PB”) and Jeffrey (“J”) go together like Peanut Butter & Jelly. The couple tied  this play on their initials throughout their creative wedding details. They even opened up their first dance with an intro of “Peanut Butter Jelly Time”. Phoebe has her own boutique letterpress and design studio in San Francisco, Plumbum Press, so she came up with the creative design for their sliced bread invitations, save-the-date, as well as the sliced bread glittery garland backdrop for the dessert table.

The couple also chose to go with the pie pops as centerpieces as a nod to the “Jelly” aspect of their nuptials.

Isn’t this “Cheers” (“a toast”- hee hee) menu so fun?! We love puns like this !

Phoebe spent some time brainstorming on really creative display ideas for the pie pops and finally settled on loaves of bread, an economic alternative to traditional vases and a fun play on their theme. Guests loved it! And of course it made for some really fun and unique photos!

Congrats to Phoebe and Jeffrey!

We were just thinking that Valentine’s Day is sneaking up- it’s practically just around the corner! So to help you out, we’ve started brainstorming some ideas for you, so you don’t get caught off guard. And guess what? Any of these cake pops can be customized with your special message to make it even more unique for anyone you would like to treat this V-day!

Let’s start with classic Sweet Heart Cake Pops:

Which could be modified to look like these Conversation Heart Cake Pops with special messages on each one!

OR you could send your loved ones some Hugs and Kisses Cake Pops.

Or you could get serious and just send some tasty LIPS cake pops.

Simple office party? How about these festive Party Cake Pops in pinks, reds, and whites?

Let’s finish up with these Sweet Swirl Cake Pops.

Can you feel it? Love is in the air already!

Last Spring Rachel & Matt asked us to help design a glamorous rustic chic dessert bar for their wedding at Holman Ranch, in Carmel Valley, California. If you have never been to Holman Ranch, it is one of the most beautiful wedding backdrops we have ever seen! These ethereal snapshots were captured beautifully by Erika at This Love of Yours Photography. And a delicious dinner was presented by Culinary Eye Catering.

Rachel wanted to bring in elegant milk glass and crystal pedestals as well as mercury glass details. She chose her color details based on the gorgeous palette of pastel blushes, peach, and mint that her bridesmaids wore. And used some of these same elements throughout her design, including on the tables and during dinner.

The Marquee letters for the bride and groom added a fun touch and a bit of light to the display.

The couple requested an assortment of cake pops and pie pops for their guests.

They hoped to create a “WOW” statement with this gorgeous dessert bar. They even decided on a simple pleated ruffle cake for the traditional cake cutting.

Guests couldn’t stop raving about the dessert all night!  See more beautiful shots of this gorgeous wedding:

So many congratulations to such a wonderful couple, Rachel & Matt!

We are so very excited to share with you photos from out “Notebook” inspired photo shoot we created this past June!

The concept for our shoot came after many hours in the kitchen chatting about our cheesy love for the movie “The Notebook”, and mainly, Ryan Gosling

Ever since we created our pie pops, Lauren has been excited to see them displayed in our custom stand which happens to be perfect for weddings as it resembles a tiered wedding cake.  The rustic nature of the pies combined with our elegant stand came together as the perfect representation of the love story of a country boy and a city girl.

We incorporated light pink puffs of cotton candy since Allie and Noah met at the county fair.

Does it get any sweeter than heart shaped pies?

Once the idea was there, we sought a venue with the same feeling.  What we found when we toured Campovida seriously impressed, a gorgeous organic farm and vineyard with elegant structures and beautiful grounds with rose gardens and weeping willow trees.  It was perfect!

We knew instantly we wanted to work with Michele Beckwith for her amazing way with light and capturing those special moments.

Sweet Lauren Caramel Bourbon Pecan Pie

Yes, that’s right – a WHOLE Pie!  Just for yourself, or you can share. Up to you- we won’t tell!

Sweet Lauren Apple Cinnamon Pie with Classic Lattice Crust

With three enticing delicious flavors to choose from, you’re sure to find a favorite!

Apple Cinnamon– Biting into a slice of this pie is like biting into the holidays. Cinnamon, butter,and vanilla bean simmer with a delicious variety of apples under a thick Texas cream cheese crust. The depth of the flavor in this butter crust highlights every sweet/tart bite!

Caramel Bourbon Pecan: We love our pecan pies with extra pecans, a scoop of caramel, and a dash of Kentucky bourbon to bring out that nutty rich gooey flavor. The top of the pie sets with a nice crunch and compliments the flaky Texas cream cheese crust. This southern favorite is at the top of everyone’s dessert wish list!

Maple Pumpkin: We found that even people that don’t love pumpkin pie, love this one! The rich flavor of pumpkin, butter, maple and holiday spices tantalize the mouth and fill the tummy! The cream cheese crust makes every bite mouthwatering!

Recently we were hired to make cake pops for a couple that were so much fun during their tasting, we knew their wedding would be an awesome party!  When we got the photos back below, they proved us right!

Another glitzy view!

During our experience making cake pops, we’ve found many uses for them at weddings.  They’ve been cute and yummy take-away favors for the guests, in lieu of a traditional cake, as escort cards for the table seating chart, and even as a unique element to a dessert display.  But this couple had other plans in mind for the cake pops.  We think cake pops as microphones take the cake, so to speak!
