I think it may have been last year or early this year when I saw the most beautiful doll cake on a Facebook page. I stopped to comment on the picture, duly admired the beautiful cake and added that I’d never had a doll cake in my life. Fast forward to yesterday and I received a call while doing my show. I was told there’s … Continue reading A Doll Cake At Last!Ā
