Meet Team-Kitsch

Well, lots has been going on this year.  Amongst many, one of the important happenings has been the addition of 2 team members:  Rebecca and Valentine.

We thought it a good idea to add a new "About us" page to the website.   One thing I must admit:  there is so much more than meets the eye and this page is complete proof of that.

The cookies you see were designed and created just for the making of this page.  It took us 2 full days of baking, decorating and photo shooting.  Then one full day just to put everything in its place, so that our presentation was a little fun and crazy (like we are:-)

So I hope you enjoy what you see here.  For the French and German version, please go to the original homepage and click on the appropriate flag.   Working together with Reb and Val is  so much fun.  There are some days where I get home, facial muscles aching from laughing so hard.  That is exactly how "work" should be like:  fun and passion from beginning to end, despite the crazy hectic pace we sometimes have to endure.

That's just the way the cookie crumbles at the Sugarshack!

Enjoy y'all!

We are a trio of fun gals blessed with CRAZY DNA.

Our mission : to bring cake culture into your lives !

The Nasty Pumpkin by Thatbakinggirl

Everyone loves a scary Halloween Jack o' Lantern, right? Well, I do, and a pumpkin on a lollipop stick? Well, that's actually one I would like to eat too!
What you will need:
Cookie baked directly on the stick
Pumpkin cutter
Orange and green fondant

Black edible ink pen
Toothpick
Some kind of face
1. Cut out your pumpkin shape, leaving out the stem.
2. I think this is pretty self explanatory...LOL!! Put both onto your cookie. I dabbed the cookie with a bit of water first.
3. Choose a face for your pumpkin and cut it down to size.
4. Now really, you can draw right on, but if I do that, I tend to ruin everything. So take a toothpick and push lightly everywhere you need help to remember where the line goes.
5. Can you see the tiny "holes" on that tiny picture?
6. Follow the tiny holes and fill in with your edible ink marker!
That's it!
List of items :
Pumpkin cutter 
Orange Fondant
Green fondant :
Black edible ink pen
