Wedding Season

By springtime, we're itching to get outside again.  Throw on some shades, find some new shoes, soak up some of those almost-forgotten-about rays.  Winter in Pittsburgh just goes for so long, doesn't it??

Springtime also means we're in full baking mode.  Most of your New Year's resolutions have been abandoned by now, and will birthdays, weddings, and graduations all being scheduled, PSR is usually in overdrive with orders.  This spring is no exception.

We took a month or so off for some personal changes (we moved!), but now that spring has arrived we're back in full swing here.  We are booked solid for the next 3 weeks, and have weddings planned for this summer already!  

Tonight we're celebrating the wedding of a good personal friend of ours.  Kara has been in our lives for 11+ years, and this weekend she is getting married.  This is Kara (and a rare picture of Lis too!):


Timing didn't work out to make her wedding cake (plus, it becomes a lot harder to do that when you're in the wedding), but we decided to make her a cake tonight for her rehearsal dinner.  Because there's no such thing as too much cake when it's your wedding weekend!


Kara loves purple above all else (well....lime green too, but who wants to see a lime green cake??) so we went all out on the purple shades for this cake.  And the flavors underneath are just as yummy: lemon raspberry, vanilla bean almond, and chocolate mocha!  If you haven't forgotten about your New Year's Resolution by now, I bet this is testing your will power!

We'll be back soon with lots more updates, since we have lots of work coming up in the near future.  If you're planning on contacting us for some baking work, might we suggest you do it sooner rather than later??  We're already scheduling well into June for customers!

Enjoy this beautiful weekend, guys!
