Sweet Alchemy by Amelia Has Arrived in Manhasset

Ohhh...how precious. We just loved designing this Purpliscious cake for Anastasia's First Birthday!

This Centerpiece display was created for a Baby Shower held at Limani Restaurant in Roslyn, NY on Northern Blvd. Each cupcake was toped with a 3-D sculpture. Each table at the shower had their own cupcake centerpiece.

Head table centerpiece with a small cake on top of the baby block themed tower.

We Finally Did It!!!!

We finally did it! My dream come true...a little custom cake shop in Manhasset, New York.

It's almost two months now since we opened on October 30, 2010 and the response has been wonderful.

But...before I go on...I have to publicly say thank you thank you thank you to all of my family and friends for coming out to our opening celebration and for all of your support and well wishes. The opening would not have been as special as it was without all of you! Our little place still resonates with all of the laughter and smiles from that day! Again...from the bottom of my heart....Thank You!!!!!

Ever since we opened...I have spent nights here...literally...there were several evenings when I or Theodora and I spent the night on the sofa or chair! We even tossed a coin one night to see who gets the sofa! Exhausted you ask! Absolutely....but a good exhaustion! We did however, promise ourselves not to do this again. Unless of course we have to....like there is a tornado or a snow blizzard preventing us from going home. :)

Since opening we've catered to the Manhasset Women's Coalition Against Breast Cancer, the Manhasset Mother's Group, the Flower Hill Mother's Group, Shelter Rock's Sixth Grade Halloween Party, North Shore Nursery's Ladies Night Out...and oh so many fun birthday parties, showers and anniversaries and weddings and christenings.

We've expanded our menu of goodies to cupcakes to order. All we need is a couple of days for those. Soon to come will be frozen tiropetes and kourambiedes....Who wouldn't want such wonderful Greek delicasies as Greek tiropetes and kourambiedes? Just come in and place an order or call us - and we will be happy to make them for you and deliver to your front door!

We will also be giving classes in beginning fondant work starting in late January. Working on the curriculum as we speak.

Classes will be for Mommies and Me, Children: Ages 5 - 7, 8 - 10, 11- 13, teens and adults.

Just stay posted on this blog and my FB page for more info as it becomes available!
