Welcome!

Hello Everyone!

Thank You for visiting my Blog: A little Imagination. I created this blog to showcase some of the decorated cakes I have made in the past and to pass along some ideas for cakes that I can make in the future.

All of my cakes are handmade in Middletown, CT and decorated using Fondant and Gumpaste (for the most part) as well as Buttercream and other soft icings.

The Idea behind my cakes is this: If you can think of it, I can make it into a cake. I love bouncing ideas around so we can come up with the perfect cake for your event.

Feel Free to email me with comments, questions or ideas at hanzandblix at gmail dot com, other contact info is available in the "About Me" section to your right.

Have fun looking around and remember, all it takes is a little imagination!

O'Rourkes Diner

If you live in the Middletown area, you probably know about O'Rourkes Diner. This Middletown icon had been on Main St for decades and serves (in my humble opinion) some of the best food around. Along with all the other things this diner does for the community, It is also the place where I get to bake and decorate my cakes.

This cake was made for the 1 year anniversary of the diner's re-opening after a tragic fire nearly destroyed the historic building.


The Diner cake was covered in Marshmallow fondant painted with edible silver dust. I also created sugar glass blocks and windows.

Brian O'Rourke, the Diner's owner was created out of gumpaste, complete with chef's pants, an O'Rourkes t-shirt and his ever present knife.
