Welcome all you sweet lovers! My name is Melissa, and I am on a mission to tantalize your sweet tooth and satisfy your every craving. Pretty in Pink Sweets is the name, and baking is my game.
It all started as a just a tiny little 5 year old girl watching my grandma bake her delectable cookies, pies, and breads. As soon as my parents would trust and allow me to bake in the kitchen my baking journey began. I started off small, trying my hardest to perfect the chocolate chip cookie. I then moved on to more advanced treats such as lemon bars, pies and layered cakes. I was soon dubbed the "mini Martha Stewart" by family and friends, such a big name to live up to, and one I didn't take lightly. ;) No matter how big the event (a birthday or holiday) or how small (such as a thank you present) I take the opportunity to bake and share my passion and love with others.
These days cupcakes have become my favorite thing to create, there are so many fun varieties to make and decorate! I have grown to develop some of my own recipes and have had the honor of winning first prize & best in show at our state fair bake-off.
Why pink? Because it is the most fabulous color of course! I am a girly girl in every regard, if it comes in pink I will buy it. My kitchen is covered in it from my KitchenAid Mixer down to my spatula. So it only seemed appropriate to incorporate my love of baking with my devotion to this beautiful hue.
So are you ready for sweet sensations? Seduce your taste-buds with my signature double chocolate cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. Or if your in for a rich treat, try my Oreo cookie truffles covered in only the best 100% coco chocolate. :) Not what your looking for? Request what ever your heart desires, I will be more then happy to make your sweet dreams come true.
Stay tuned, more creations to be featured!
