Virtual Bake-Off Contest Week 1

Our entry tonight is from Sweet Stella Treats

They are located in Denver, Colorado

Here is some background information:
Welcome to Sweet Stella Treats and my little world of baking. I"m Bonnie, and before I started this chapter in my life, I taught Pre-K, Kindergarten and First grade. I always enjoyed planning for the week, field trips and the projects that required cute little hands to create. I've always been a sucker for anything cute...some things never change. My love for baking didn't come into the picture until I had Stella, the sweetest little girl ever, in 2008. Once we were on a schedule and I no longer had clothes to fold, or rooms to clean, I decided to invest my time in learning about baking. Not only was I a devoted watcher of the hit show, Ace of Cakes, I spent a lot of my time, and still do, googling new techniques, watching tutorials and reading up on "how to's". After posting some pictures on facebook, what would we do without it, I began getting emails asking if I was in business to sell. My mind began to wonder, then Sweet Stella Treats was born.

Stay tuned for more great bakers coming tomorrow.

This is going to be a fun contest.

Have a great night,

Virtual Bake-Off Contest Week 1

Tonight we are featuring: Sweet Memories Cakery & Designs

Sweet memories Cakery and Designs is located in Summerville, South Carolina

Here is a little background info:
Krissy started Sweet Memories as a creative outlet for her to do what she loves - keeping close to the kitchen, baking and decorating cakes. That is actually not the only thing that she loves. She also has a papery side to sweet memories as she loves designing pretty papery for parties on her computer and throwing parties too. Having bright bold colors all around her really makes her spirits soar! She hopes she can help you and inspire you to create one sweet memory!

All of our creations are made to order from scratch using the freshest and best ingredients, real butter, whole milk, fresh eggs and organic when possible...You will find no boxed stuff here and no shortcuts. Nothing will leave my kitchen until I am satisfied. And I must mention that I am slightly OCD if something isn't just right.

Next up: Dough-A-Deer

Dough-a-Deer is located in California.
Here is some background info:
Dough a Deer was started in summer 2010 when the owner Nicole found out that Krispy Kreme was no longer open as late as it was before. She thought, why not find out how to make her own doughnuts, thus Dough a Deer was born! She's participated in some amazing photo shoots, restaurant buffets, the Mass military wedding as well as Wish upon a wedding. =]. The doughnuts come in tons of flavors, 2 sizes and there are the new doughtruffles too! Nicole used to work with cupcakes but she broke up with the cupcake for the doughnut and she's never been happier.
