Barbara's Basic Cake Decorating Class! Private lesson only!
Cakes for Ruthe
On the top left is a pic of Grand Prairie's Mayor Pro-Tem, Ruthe Jackson, holding her 90th birthday cake @ the Ruthe Jackson Center. Barbara decorated a replica (top right) of the Center in cake. After making that cake, she interviewed Barbara and Karl on her cable show: What's Happening in Grand Prairie. One year, Ruthe presented Barbara & cake to the Commissioner's Court in downtown Dallas. Barbara had her picture taken between John Wiley Price & Ken Mayfield. The judge at-the-time was Judge Jackson. For the finale, Ruthe asked Barbara to present the judge with the cake. Well, Judge Jackson shoved his chair back and threw his arms out because he thought Barbara was going to shove the cake in his face! lol

She taught the cake decorating class @ Sanger Harris in the Preston Center location.

Barbara had a 2' tall gingerbread House on a TV commercial with Southwest Airlines & Ronald McDonald House Charities. It aired from California to New York during the holidays. The commercial was about several children standing around a gingerbread house attempting to decorate it with tons of icing & candy. After the press found out, they printed an article about the little guy (bakery) going big! Several people wanted her autograph...imagine that! Praise God! FYI: Barbara was interviewed by the Why Guy on Channel 8 around 5 am one morning with one of her gingerbread houses in-tow.
This cake was seen on
the Channel 5 News.
It was the 100th
birthday cake for
the city of
Grand Prairie, Tx.
We WON the 2011 "SMALL BUSINESS OF THE YEAR" in Grand Prairie, Texas!
Praise God!
