About Sweet Bite

Sweet Bite is a home-based bakery that has grown out of my love of baking and desire to create edible art for family and friends. While I have found a niche making special occasion cakes for various celebrations including weddings, baby showers, and birthdays; I am happy to bake pies, pastries, and any other sweet or savory treat your heart desires. I love to try new recipes and challenge myself with fun designs. While my cakes are pretty to look at, I strive to make them taste even better using quality ingredients! I hope you enjoy reading my blog and seeing what new sweet treat I have created in my kitchen!

Thomas and friends

I learned a few new things this weekend.  First, I learned that making espresso is an art.  I took an espresso fundamentals class at the local community college and now have a new admiration for baristas who can pull the perfect shot of espresso.  Maybe after my next class in a couple of weeks I will be able to pull a better shot!  I also learned that three shots of espresso before noon is way too much for my body to handle!  I also learned what Thomas and his friends Percy and James look like.  Some church friends asked me to make cupcakes for their son's 3rd birthday and I was happy to do so.  So, Thomas is the blue train and has triangle eye brows. 

James is red and has crows feet under his eys.  James is green and doesn't have any facial marks that stick out.  It's always fun to try new designs.  I also don't many cupcakes but I see why people like to make them more than cake.  They are easier, but making 40 faces took a little time and a lot of patience!
