If you’ve got three birthday parties to plan in four months and you’re looking for something that will not only win you the mama of the year award (hello, little ninja cake), but that’s also guaranteed to go down a treat then look no further than amazing mama baker Sharon at Cake to Crumbs. This super sassy baker can literally make anything out of icing, so no request is too silly (honestly). Her creations are thoughtful and often come with a little something extra (hint…think hidden smarties and sprinkles hidden inside),  it’s no surprise the last slice is always fought over!
