Projects

Water Colors

Turn up the tropical heat with bold candy coral coated in nonpareils, neon cereal treat fish and dazzling jumbo nonpareils on the sea bottom. All these sizzling shades look even brighter against a sheet cake covered by a sea of marbleized fondant.

Summer Breeze Margarita Cupcakes

Perfect for taking it easy on those hazy, lazy days - simple iced cupcakes in refreshing colors, topped by candles which carry your party theme. The baking is just as easy using bright silicone cups - no muffin pan needed.

Recipes

Coconut Layer Cake

Light, tender, moist – one bite will transport you to a tropical island. Using a cake mix as a base, it's easy to make. A sprinkle of toasted coconut on top and an easy-to-do shell bottom border add the finishing touch.

Margarita Cupcakes

Tropical flavor was never easier to do! Frozen drink mix takes the place of water to make a simple-to-do cake mix. Add festive decorations to carry the warm-weather theme.
