Lange Foundation Holiday Cupcakes

These are cupcakes I made for the Lange Foundation for the holidays adorned with their logo and holiday nonpareils. The Lange Foundation is a no-kill shelter that saves so many animals and gives them a second chance. I can go on and on about them, but for more information please go to www.LangeFoundation.com.
















I adopted Lucciano from them 2 months ago and it has been so awesome! (He's the furry white guy at the park.) There are a variety of dogs there-- they range in size, breed, age, but the thing they have in common is they are good pets and just want a home. Terry (the white dog), Pika (a Chihuahua mix), and Trevor (a lab mix), are just some of the furry friends that are available there. If you are an animal lover who cannot own a pet at the time, please think about volunteering there, you will love it! Below is also a youtube video of Trevor made by a volunteer. Trevor has been at the shelter for a long time, maybe due to his larger size, but we hope to see him go home soon. As you will see in the video, he is just a big lovebug!













Bachelorette and Bachelor Party Cakes

Bachelorette cakes have been my best selling cake surprisingly, although I am not able to show photos on the blog due to its...graphic nature ;)! So if you are thinking of a bachelorette or bachelor party cake, please email me directly for photos and ideas. Contact@SweetCatastropheCakes.com
