For Goodness Cakes

I am not a cook.  I wouldn't even go as far as saying I'm a baker, but I actually enjoy (look forward to) that one.  I think it's the artistic side of it.  I really just love the decorating.  And now that I'm learning more, I like to carve and build a cake, too!  I have always liked to decorate cupcakes with all their tiny details.

Well, last fall, a friend at work told me about this awesome group, called For Goodness Cakes, who bake cakes for kids in foster care and in shelters.  It was around this time I was starting to see the effects of the cakes on my body :/ and couldn't give up a chance to be able to bake all I want and not gain an ounce, especially when it is for such a good cause.  (You all know the batter on the spatula is calorie-free, right?)



My first assigned cake

Since then, I have taken a few cake classes and started selling cakes, too.  I'm really enjoying it!  B will tell you I'm obsessed.  I love looking at blogs and books and coming up with new designs.  I have way too many ideas to ever complete them all, but I will try!

Well, I need to check on my cake!  My house has been smelling gooood....

Confessions of a Blog Stalker

I am an avid food blog stalker.  I check a few daily; they're in my favorites.  (The Decorated Cookie and Bake at 350, to name my first go-to's)  So I guess the guilt of not "contributing" and the nice "push" by some of my family members (probably the only people even reading this ;) ) led me to finally create this blog.  I am by no means a blogger.  I am not the best writer nor photographer, and I take most of my recipes/ideas from other blogs. :)  I've been trying to plan ahead (another thing I don't do much of) and start taking pictures of the baking process and not just the final project... so last night when I made cinnamon bread, I took a thousand pictures of the process... AND FORGOT TO TAKE A PICTURE OF THE FINAL PROJECT! haha

So, here goes!  May I introduce you to my blog: Sarah's Got a Sweet Tooth.  Because a sweet tooth is something I do know a lot about!

And I know we all look at blogs for the pictures, so here's one to make it worth reading all the words. :)

(My first cake from class... cute, but I promise they get better!)
