I was so proud to have the opportunity to make a very special first birthday cake this past weekend. I am one of many bakers across the country who are a part of the Icing Smiles Organization, a non profit organization that provides custom celebration cakes and other treats to families impacted by critical illness of a child.  Their goal, excerpted from www.icingsmiles.com is "We understand that the simple things, like a birthday cake, are luxuries to a family battling illness.  Our goal is to create a custom cake for the ill child or their sibling that will provide a temporary escape from worry and create a positive memory during a difficult time." These people are tremendous - Icing Smiles matches bakers with families based on location and availability, and really facilitates something wonderful. I also can't say enough about the courage and strength that the family I baked for displays.  The celebration was for a little boy celebrating his first birthday, as he battles brain cancer.  The cake was perfectly matched to the carnival themed party - the festive decorations and activities the family had planned were so cute!! The whole experience brought tears to my eyes. Stay tuned for more coverage - and I am definitely hoping to post about more "Icing Smiles" in the future! Check out and consider donating to www.icingsmiles.com or "Liking" them on Facebook!!

xoxo,
AMY
