Two Special Girls, One Amazing Cake! A Big Year for Rowan

When baker Torey Cranford of Cakes with TLC was asked to create a Dream Cake for Rowan’s birthday, she was not at all daunted by the major requirement: no sugar. Most people can’t imagine a cake without sugar, but Torey knew that with a little education, she could pull off an amazing cake for a truly deserving little girl.

Torey chose to consult Rowan’s mother on her disorder to get an expert opinion on Rowan’s day-to-day dietary requirements. Not only did she get enough information to begin her cake, but she also found out that Rowan’s twin sister Reece had the same disorder. Even though she was only making one cake, she knew she had to include both girls on their special day.

Her path was decided: Torey set out to make one great cake that featured both girls. Each girl had their own dedicated side of the cake all to herself! After completing the cake, Torey wasn’t done yet. She created a separate cake that was completely undecorated and brought along some piping bags with sugar free buttercream for the girls to create their own masterpiece! The extra touch added a unique surprise that no one was expecting.

Icing Smiles is so grateful for bakers like Torey. She went above and beyond the cake she was asked to create and got two times the smiles from one Dream Cake. Our sincerest thanks to Torey and all of the volunteer bakers out there Baking a Difference!
