  • Dreaming of Summer and toasted s’mores cake goodness ✨🤩 I’m planning out my summer cake recipes and tutorials for the blog and would LOVE to know what you want to see 😘 let me know in the comments! In the meantime, the recipe for this toasted s’mores cake is up on the blog and it’s oh so good: layers of graham cracker cake with toasted (!) marshmallow buttercream, chocolate ganache, and toasted marshmallow meringue 🙌🏽 A favorite of mine, always!
  • The makings of this Circus Animal Cookie inspired cake 🎪✨I used a @wiltoncakes cake comb to create the pink and white buttercream stripes, then added the cutest sprinkles ever: “A Frosted Affair” by @sprinklepop.shop 💗😍 and topped it with Circus Animal Cookies to tie the look together. You’ll find the entire tutorial at the link in my bio, including the extended YouTube version of this video ✨AND if you’re as obsessed with @sprinklepop.shop as I am, you can get 15% off your sprinkles by using my code SUGARANDSPARROW15 at checkout 🎉🎉 enjoy!
  • Top view of this lemon blueberry cake because I’m still not over the color of this buttercream 😍🍋✨freeze dried fruit is my favorite way to flavor + color frosting 🙌🏽 find the recipe for all of this goodness on my blog at sugarandsparrow.com (search “lemon cake”) 🍋🎂
  • I LOVED Circus Animal cookies when I was a kid (ok, still do 😆) so when I found out @sprinklepop.shop has a new mix inspired by these classic cookies (called “A Frosted Affair”), I knew exactly what to do with them: a Circus Animals-inspired cake design, of course! 😍 🎪 from the striped buttercream to sprinkle placement, I’ve got the full tutorial + YouTube video linked in my bio 🙌🏽 perfect for a circus themed party or to satisfy some nostalgia 💗✨
  • That one time I put sprinkles on my drip 🤩 these beauties are the “Bewitched” sprinkles by @sprinklepop.shop on a fuschia buttercream backdrop (colored with @americolor fuschia). I’m a longtime SprinklePop fan and Liz (the owner) was kind enough to give me a discount code for YOU to get any of her beautiful mixes at a 15% discount 🙌🏽 use code SUGARANDSPARROW15 next time you’re shopping @sprinklepop.shop and enjoy 🎉
  • The makings of these mini geode cupcake toppers ✨I used a plastic painter’s palette as a mold for the melted @wiltoncakes candy melts, then added some pretty @sweettoothfairy rock candies and sprinkles and chilled them for five minutes in the refrigerator to let them set up. Then, I rolled the edges in more melted candy melts and gold sprinkles to finish the look 🤩👩🏽‍🎨I got everything I needed for these pretty geodes from @joann_stores 🙌🏽 the full tutorial is at the link in my bio, including an extended video from my YouTube channel (where you can see my entire collection of video tutorials!!) 💎✨
