Curl Up and Dye




Curl up and dye has always been a dream salon name for my beauty shop.  As you can tell that dream hasn't come true yet.  He-he. I always wanted to go to beauty school and create and play with color and different haircuts.  One day when my 3 year old gets it together and finally goes to school full time, I may go and make my little dream come true.   Here's a cake that was designed for a hairdresser.  This is a yellow and chocolate cake with white icing and as always marshmallow fondant.

This week I was asked to make 150 cake pops for our Youth Pastor and youth group.  At first I thought no problem...wow was I wrong.  After talking some of my moms group friends to help out we found out how difficult these little cute pops are.  I had to say we did like the challenge.  As we were getting a little delirious over all the Oreos and cream cheese that went into these my friend blurted out that's it I'm quitting my job as and nurse to work at chubby cheeks and thighs.  Of course we all laughed and I said so whose got the cheeks and whose got the thighs?  Did I mention that there were 5 kids we were watching at the time we were making these?  Yeah, we need a day care for the kids in order to make big orders like this.
