Happy 1st day of Spring! 🌼🌱🌷🌸

How sweet is this wildflower flower cake for a baby shower?! 😍

On February 5th I was involved in a terrible head on collision after dropping Finley off at school. I was trapped under the dash and had to be cut out of the car and sustained serious injuries to my lower body that required several surgeries to repair. Luckily, Bodie (who was sitting right behind me) was not injured.
Unfortunately this means I have to put my business on hold until summer. I worked so hard to grow my business and I’m absolutely devastated that I have to put it on hold but due to my injuries I have no choice 😭 Don’t forget about Cottonwood Cakes - I’ll be back!

💖 Last week to order Valentine’s treats! 💖

COMMENT “order” and I will send you a link to my custom order form so you can get your hands on something LIKE THIS 👆🏻

My edible cookie dough filling is BY FAR my favorite filling that I offer! 🤌🏻🤌🏻

Here’s how I make it edible…

1. Obviously I do not use any kind of eggs because this cookie dough is not going to be baked.

2. Flour is considered a raw food, meaning it has to be baked before eating. I bake the flour in the oven for around 8 minutes before using it in the dough. This kills any bacteria in the flour and thus making it edible!

In this video I’m building my very popular cake flavor - That Cookie Do’!
It features Vanilla Chocolate Chip cake with (you guessed it!) Edible Cookie Dough filling and Vanilla buttercream.

So so good!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

COMMENT “order” and I’ll send you the link to my custom order form so you can try this cake for yourself 😉

Like and follow! 💗

I predict heart cakes will be very popular this year! 💗

I’ve done heart cakes for birthdays, gender reveals and I love the idea of doing an all white one for weddings! So fun and different 🤍

If you’d like to order a heart cake just COMMENT “order” and I’ll send you my custom cake form.
