A lively little adventure

Okay, this post is completely out of left field. Unexpected. Crazy. And, I’m so glad I have these pictures to remember it.

I was in New York several days ago for a book signing, but a lot of you knew that.

But, did you know I made some cake pops while I was there?

IMG_2793

That’s not too unusual, right?!

Right.

That would totally be something I do.

But … who I made them with is the fun part.

Want to see?

IMG_2368__

Yep. That’s Blake Lively. Like I said… this post is kinda crazy. It seems like I’ve been using that word a lot lately.

This pic is from her phone. Seriously, even her photos are fashionable. She has an app that puts effects on photos as you take them. I kinda like the distressed look though.

Okay, so a little backstory is probably in order. It turns out that Blake loves to bake and cook. I mean loves it. She had phone pics of tons of treats that she’s made. And they’re really good, too. I don’t know when she finds the time … between movies and Gossip Girl and red carpet events. But she has quite the inventory of baked goods on her phone to prove it.

Anyway, my site just so happens to be one of the few food sites she visits often. Hi Blake!

So she read how I would be in New York and invited me over to bake.

And I went.

We ended up having a Cake Pop party with some of her friends.

IMG_2787

We had such a good time. Blake is a doll. Her energy and enthusiasm is infectious. It was so fun for me to see how excited she is about baking and how passionate she is about food – inspiring even.

She said she’d made the cupcake pops before…

IMG_2781

But when I saw this, it really made me smile. She had made them and had the cutters set aside for safe-keeping.

That’s the crinkle cutter from Wilton by the way.

IMG_2764

Right about here, I looked over at my mom who was snapping a few pics. And, if you can’t tell by my face, I’m laughing inside about how surreal this is.

We just messed around in the kitchen and made some basic cupcake pops with some decorations that Blake had on hand and a few things I brought over.

And towards the end of the night we tried a Wizard of Oz cake pop. A sweet tin man.

Here’s Blake’s.

IMG_2349_

She just so happened to have edible lustre spray on hand to finish off the look. Who randomly has edible lustre spray? I told you she was serious.

She also gave him a heart and a cute little bow tie that’s a bit hard to see in the photo. We had to improvise on the nose for lack of suitable candies on short notice. But Blake was quick to fix him right up with part of the Hershey’s tag glued on front. Resourceful.

All I know is now I want to make more Tin Man cake pops so I can show you the lustre spray. I can’t wait to play.

Then, maybe I’ll make some scarecrows and lions…

…and one of her little dog, too.

IMG_2759

This is Penny. Wouldn’t this face make a perfect little cake pop? Sorry, Toto.

IMG_2364

Anyway, that’s just a glimpse. I love how this website reminds me that you can never tell what little adventure is right around the corner.

Crazy stuff. But in the best way possible.

    To Blake – so glad to hear you have so many incredible talents, and that you are able to balance everything else so well!

    I invite both Blake and yourself to check out my small collection of prized baking recipes: http://prettyshinysparkly.com/category/recipes/
    Famous Pumpkin Cheesecake, Pomegranate Ice Cream, and Hello Dolly Bars (a personal favorite) are delicious, fun and easy to bake.

    And of course, there’s always fashion!

    Sorry for the novella-length comment, but I’m truly amazed and sincerely happy and proud of your success and fame! Well deserved, Angie!

  24. yummm those cake pops look yummyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

  25. im going to pretend like i didnt yell oh my goodness! Blake! i heard she was pretty serious about cooking, but this is wonderful

  26. As someone who adores baking and lives in Brooklyn – I am SHOCKED I was not invited! Hah, looks like you had a blast and made some great pops. I’d love to hear a list of the places Blake gets her supplies in NYC. I’m new to the city and need to stock up on pretty decorating bits!

  27. ahhhhhhhh! i am absolutly completly jealous of you!! i LOVE blake lively!!!

  28. OMG! That’s the cutest dog I’ve ever seen, look’it that face! Wish I knew what mix it was, poodle something. SO adorable. Nice photos, too. Blake looks charming!!

  29. wow……..how exciting…………………….i love gossip girl………and you sure looked like you had a fun filled afternoon….i am sooo oooo happy for you

  30. OMG. I feel cool by association for reading your blog too. Not that I didn’t already feel hip for being a Bakerella fan ;)

  31. You are too cool! How fun. I’m happy for you. Blake’s Tin Man is adorable. I would love to see a Wizard of Oz group of cake pops,

  32. O my! Can’t believe you hung out with Blake!! And I’m so glad you posted a pic of her maltipoo, Penny. Three years when I was picking out what maltipoo I wanted – I saw a picture of Blake holding Penny when she was little and she was chocolate brown. I fell in love and looked for one just like her. My little Miles was medium brown but since he has turned tan with a little black on his ears. It was such a surprise to see a pic of Penny- now that she is tan too! She is adorable! Okay, you can tell I’m in love with maltipoos and their adorable faces (and their cute button noses). You must make a cake pop after them!!!

  33. Wow how FUN! I love Blake. I can’t believe she bakes. How great is that!!!

  34. I love this post! Blake Lively and BAKERELLA!

  35. If you’re ever in Provo Utah you need to stop by Cupcake Chic! You would absolutely LOVE it!!! They even have little cupcake ornaments. So cute. I can’t wait to try the gingerbread cupcake.

  36. Wizard of Oz pops now that is some crazy stuff. Can’t wait to see the whole set.

  37. Ohmigosh that’s soo awesome.. Did you take each other’s autographs?? She has a weird totally open mouthed smile in all the pics, but she looks gorgeous. I’m another one of those Gossip Girl lovers <3

  38. That’s so exciting!!!

  39. Bakerella, if I grew up to be half as cool as you I would be as happy as a kid on Christmas. Seriously, your life is a dream. You are just so awesome! <3

  40. Ohmygosh !!! You’re so lucky, t’s incredible ! I was so happy for you when i saw who you were with, but now i have to say that i’m a bit jealous :p

    What fun for you Bakerella! Who would have thought way back when you started this blog….

  51. I love Blake. She is the reason that I found your website. She did a interview with allure magazine and mention she loves to bake and that this was her fav website. So I quickly went over to my laptop and check out your site. That weekend I made my first batch of cake balls, and fell in LOve.

  52. Oh wow! That is just so awesome. Reading this post put a smile on my face :)

  53. Oh my goodness!! I dropped everything and started reading! I love your site! I also LOVE Gossip Girl, thus I became a huge fan of Blake =]

  58. Do you ever actually blog about baking anymore? I didn’t start reading this blog to see lots of pictures of random people in random book signings or random celebrities.

  59. SO jealous! I am trés excited to meet you tomorrow! I can’t wait!

  60. Double ewe. Tee. Eff.

    Bakerella, that’s just straight up cool. People love your cute behind.

  63. oh my gosh! sooooo incredibly cool!!!!!! i love this!!!!!!! i’m so jealous. I would do a LOT of things to get to bake with blake!

  64. OK, now I have even more of a girl crush on BL! She is stunning. I’ve never seen a girl look more comfortable in her own skin that her. Lord, I’m 32 and gushing! So ashamed! ;)

    Hope you had a great time. BTW, did you by any chance pick up what kind of dog Penny is? My daughter is dying for a little dog and that one is darling!

  65. Anyone (star or not) would have a blast with you, lovely Bakerella! I am SO happy for your success and the fun you are having. I just wish someone so cute as Blake, would learn to smile with her mouth not gaping open — yep, I am middle aged – lol!

  66. Reading this post just brought a big smile to my face…you are living the life right now and it’s wonderful. The best part is that you know that and are enjoying every minute…so happy for you. Love Blake and it’s nice to know she really is a genuinely nice person too. And of course it goes without saying that the cake pops were adorable!

  67. awesome!! you had me goosey bump reading it all! :)

  68. What a fabulous post! She looks like a great girl to hang out with, and very un-Serena! Thanks for sharing these fantastic photos.

  69. Your life? OMG. Just amazing. I’m so happy for you!!! I remember the day I read the interview with Blake Lively saying she loved your blog and I screamed out loud. This looks like it was SO much fun!! :)

  70. I love her in everything she is in. Amazing to know that there is another girl around my age (I’m 23) who loves baking and cooking as much as I do. I wish I would of thought of doing cake pops my daughters 4th birthday was Sunday, and her theme was Wizard of Oz. Although I probably would not of had the time since all of my decorations were also handmade. It boggles my mind that there aren’t more Wizard of Oz birthday supplies.

  71. Jealous!

    Any gossip from the night?!?!?!?!

  72. I hate to have to say this..but even though I love the tin Man cake pop… I LOVE her little puppy more! Does anyone know what kind it is? (Hopefully Santa will bring me one for Christmas!

  73. wow that really is crazy! you never know where life will lead you…

  74. love blake lively. love bakerella. love cake pops….what a dreamy day!

  80. I’m a big Blake fan. So after I read in an interview that she keeps this site as her home page, I had to check it out. I was blown away by all the awesome designs you do, so creative! Thanks for sharing your meetup. It was a treat to read. Great site you have here! :)

  81. That’s so cool that you met her & that she loves to bake : ) Looks like ya had a good time : )

  88. So great! Love the treats you made and of course Blake is awesome! Also, do her and her friends all have the same jacket? haha :)

  89. Did anyone else notice that every pic of Blake is with her mouth open…hilarious. I don’t watch Gossip Girl, but I loved her in Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. Her hair makes me sick!
    That looked like so much fun!

  90. That is awesome! Bakerella, YOU are too cute! ;)

  91. ZOMG!!! Angie, that is amazing! I’m a total Gossip Girl junkie and I’m so envious of you right now! But in a totally good way. ;)

  95. Anyone know what app that is? It seems fun!

  96. So fun! Love Blake and Gossip Girl! Looks like a great time was had by all.

  97. Awesome! How fun was that? And love the photos!

  98. Dream girls night! I think Blake’s great and of course think you’re great. My girlfriends are coming over tonight to make red velvet cake balls and candy cane christmas tree cupcakes. If you and Blake want to make your way to Vancouver you’re welcome to join! ;)

  99. You are truly living the dream! Doing what you love and sharing it. So happy for you!! It makes me a little teary-eyed to see the pure joy and excitement on your face in the photos.

    OMG I was in Atlanta last weekend for Thanksgiving at my boyfriend’s family house and I had mention to him I would like to go to the store you always mention in your blog (Cake Art Party Supplies in Tucker) so him and his parents drove there with me Saturday (11/27) afternoon. While I was walking through the store I felt like a little kid! LOL. One of the ladies that works there had asked me how I heard of the store and I told her it was from you and your awesome blog. When I was going on and on how much I love you and your cake pops she told me “Oh, you just missed Angie by an hour or two. She was just here a little ago buying more sprinkles.” I couldn’t believe it! I wish I could have ran into you at the store.
    Love you and your work. Keep it up and congrats on the GREAT BOOK!
    XoXo,
    Ary

  134. Oh my word! How cool! I love Blake! I am so jealous. I love hearing when stars are down to earth real people…I think I would have passed out if she said she followed my blog! Congrats!

  135. By the way it’s so cute that you have “lively little adventure” for her last name! Ha!

  136. That had to be amazing to spend time with Blake and her friends…she is absolutely adorable!! Can’t wait to see your Wizard of Oz cakepops…I will totally be making them, that movie is one of my favorites!!

  137. So so jealous!! The both of you look like you would be so much fun to hang out with!

  138. I’m so jealous! I love blake and baking. Cute Pictures!

  139. Wow! Looks like you guys had an amazing time!! I love Blake (and You of course ;))!!

  140. Wow!! I’m so happy for you she seems awesome! And you guys look like you’re having so much fun :D

  141. That’s awesome. I love Gossip Girl and Blake. So cool to see how down-to-earth she is.

  142. that is awesome! never would have thought she would be into baking.

  143. That’s amazing!

  144. Just really cool! Looks like you all had a great time. You deserve it. Love all the pics and the Oz themed pops are a great idea. You should start thinking about Alice in Wonderland. Oh the possiblities.

  145. That looks like a great time. Every cake pop looked just too cute. Ok, speaking of too cute. How about Penny?! That little dog is too cute. She looks like she weighs as much as a feather! What a nice time to make cake pops who someone who also has a passion about them! Thanks for sharing.

  146. Wow!! How amazing!! Can’t wait to see what you come up with for the other Oz characters! Your so awesome!

  147. too much !!! love it, i love seeing how folks passions have lead to profit, fun, media !!! you and Ree are my idols

  148. Now you need to do a whole OZ theme!!! Complete with poppies….hmmm….

  149. That is just so exciting! And I LOVE the Tin Man cake pop! Oh my gosh it’s too cute!

  150. GAH! So jealous! One I LOVE cake pops and two I ADORE Blake Lively! I dont get starstruck easily (I live in NYC) and I saw them filming GG once and just about fainted. I love that she has a normal hobby =o)

  151. Just saw this on Just Jared!! Looks like you guys had a lot of fun :)

  152. I LOVE Blake Lively! And, it’s great to see that she really enjoys “normal” things. I bet everyone loved seeing both of you together – couldn’t get better than that!

  153. That’s so cool! Your life is just too sweet t be true.

    It’s so nice to see this other side of Blake Lively too. Who knew that she was such a cake pop fan.

    I hope she asked for your autograph!

  154. Very cool! I love that little tin man! You need to do the whole cast now! Including Toto! (Or Penny!)

  155. Get out! That is so cool. Love reading your Bakerella adventures! Pam is selling her pastries for Christmas — I told her to include cake pops, but she said it was too hard. I’ll get her convinced yet — she bought me the book after all :)

  156. That looks so fun!! The tin man is absolutely adorable! So creative.

  157. I am a big fan of your site but I’m even bigger fan of Blake. It’s good to see that despite all her success she continues to be an ordinary girl. I love cupcakes and thanks to your website has learned a lot. unfortunately here in Portugal there is no store that sells cupcakes. Continues to make a site so good

  158. This post really brought a smile to my face. Really.

    In the year I’ve been reading your blog, I’ve never felt a need to comment before today. Since I am though, I really want to say your site really inspires me. It has proven to me, that a person can become successful through hard work and talent.

    I think you deserve everything that you have worked so hard for, including a cake pop party with Blake Lively! To be honest though, I think I was more nervous to get my book signed by you then I would have been meeting Blake Lively, and I’m seventeen. That’s pretty legit.

    Thank you, for inspiring me. You’re someone that I really look up too, and I am sure I am not the only one who feels that way.

Sorry blake about it but you two make the perfect couple, you heard that before! Nothing is easy just work things out together! All the best :)
