I’m even more famous now, plus cakes for a good cause

I don’t have any pictures of my new oven yet, but soon. It works so well, I don’t know how I lived with the other one for so long!
The new one couldn’t go where we had planned on putting it, so it’s sitting in front of where the old oven was right now. In the middle of my small kitchen, basically. Yeah, we’ve already borrowed my dad’s circular saw to cut out the cabinet as soon as we have time.
Tuesday I was on TV! See:

 

 

It was fun, but I was so nervous. I left the cupcakes for them to eat, and the producer said everyone loved them! She also said they enjoyed having me and would love to have me back sometime. Score!

 

I donated two cakes yesterday to the Women Against MS fundraising luncheon – proceeds went to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. 

The first one was four layers of lemon cake, filled with raspberry preserves, iced with lemon vanilla buttercream and topped with fresh raspberries.



The second was four layers of chocolate sour cream cake, filled and iced with espresso buttercream and topped with a chocolate ganache drizzle.


No inside shots, as they were auctioned off and (hopefully) enjoyed by others!

    You look soooo cute on TV Stephanie! You’re like a local celeb these days….the crazy vegan cake lady! Yea! Not that you’re crazy, but it has a better ring to it.

    Also, I love how you kinda turned the interview into a pro-vegan thing with reasons why vegan is better you! Yea!

    That is so damn cool! So exciting for you, and it was such a nice long segment! I watched it and you did not look nervous a bit. And the World of Warcraft cake is too funny.

    And oh my god those last cakes look amazing!

    Okay, I am like totally drooling right now. Those cakes looked so scrumptious.

    I think you did GREAT. I would get so nervous… but you were very natural and spontaneous. I guess your business is going to boom even more after this!

    (and oh.the.cakes)

    You look amazing on the big screen! Way to share the virtues of veganism! And with such sexy cupcakes!

    Love it! Just gave you the Brillante Award. Enjoy and be well.

    I love your cakes! I just discovered your blog and I like what you do. I think it is great to see people able to make a living doing what they love (which is what I get to do too – yay for us!). You looked sassy on TV and were very poised and confident. I especially liked your explanation of your gorgeous vegan cupcakes and I wish everyone could have tasted them.

    I wish I was in Memphis so I could have that chocolate cake with espresso…oh yum.

  16. Liz² says:
