Hi everyone.... it's been so long I posted anything on my baking website. That's because I been a little busier with my stamp line and crafting things. Anyways... this past week we had a hurricane disaster here in NJ and we had no power for over 1 week. Bakerella book signing in NJ was cancelled due to the power outage. With that said, I been wanting to meet her for over two years and I didn't want to miss that chance. So I drove to PA about 1 hour and 45 minutes. With all the excitement and joy of meeting Bakerella, the ride was not so bad. I needed some off from all the chaos.
Here are some pictures of the book signing.
King of Prussia mall. It is HUGE!!
I have never been to a book signing so I didn't know what to expect. I thought it was going to be a quick sign and NEXT. But not Bakerella, she make sure she chatted a little bit with each individual person.
As I sat down, I intrude myself, Hi I'm Catarina from NJ. Right away she knew who I was. Its so wonderful to know that she takes time to know each fan individually. We had a great chat and she made sure that this moment was going to be remembered. I always admired her, she is always smiling and always friendly.
Here she is signing both books :0) We also signed her book. How thoughtful of her. As I walked out of the store I also meet Kim and her family with KC Bakes. They have the best cakepops stands out there. I'm yet to try it but I hear great feedback. Be sure to check out Kim's blog here, she also has a giveaway on her blog.
After the book signing. Bakerella did a little intro on her cakepops with most of the supplies she used for the new book. It was super fun, I made sure that I stook around. It's not like I have Bakerella to hang out with all the time, so why not.
After all the questions being answered, she took a few more pictures with everyone.
Did I bored you yet?? Sorry for the long post. But this was a very exciting day for me.
Now, how about some fun for you? Today I'm giving one of Bakerella book has a giveaway. This is for the one that didn't make it to her book signing.

What a fun giveaway! I love cake pops but haven't been brave enough to make them myself. Maybe this book can give me some great tips and me and my daughters can make our own instead of buying them. Pick me!!
ReplyDeleteI loved this post Catarina. I bought a cake-pop machine last year for "ME" It was so fun making them I'm glad I read this post I am going to get my cake pop machine out now. I will have to check that book out at W&S.
ReplyDeleteI am keeping all you NJ folks in prayer and everyone who was affected by this disaster. I live 6 mile from the epicenter of 1989
Loma Prietta earthquake, I know how devastating disaster can be, so my heart goes out to eveyone, not only for right now, but for the upcoing rebuilding of structures, insurance payments, shelter food, and clothing all to come in a timely fashion.
On a happier note thanks for all those fun photos-- I felt like I was there with you.
