I had so much fun with these florals. I really had no idea what I was going to get when I got there, but these from @spruceridge were everything I could’ve hoped for and more. I’ve never had a color palate like this to play with and I’ve never even seen half of the plants she used but I loved it. It was so refreshing to work with something different and unique this time. • Photography - @emjcrockett Venue - @bestviewbarn Florals - @spruceridge Handlettering - @theadirondackink Arbors - @something_borrowed_rentals_ Cake - @minicheflife Makeup - @makeupbycaitlinhilts Hair - @maie.i.bridal Table Rentals - @brownbuiltrentals Model - @abbyand_thegirls • #minicheflife #Torta #TortaRoc #styledshoot (at Best View Barn) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4GfUdpBUvA/?igshid=r18qlhwz6t8i

I meant to post this yesterday for #fridayintroductions, but I got rather caught up in a baking fiasco that involved me remaking two thirds of my cake layers, so needless to say I didn’t end up getting to it. 🤦🏻‍��️Anyway, it’s been a minute, so I thought I’d say hi and tell you all a little about myself. Also, this is a little lengthy, but it’s a two-part introduction, so keep reading for some exciting news! . Hi! 👋 My name is Ashley Schwartz! I’m the “Mini Chef” whose life is being documented in this little account. Here’s some random facts about me: .I am a graduate of the Alfred State Baking Program. .I got married June 30th of this year, and I made our wedding cake (the one in this post ☝🏻). It’s entirely cookie cake because but I’m really not a big fan of cake eating unless it’s cold. .I really love fresh oranges and decorating with candied orange, but I can’t stand orange flavor. Except orange soda. That one I like. .My favorite color is yellow. .I own over 400 books and counting. .I play two instruments. .My favorite flowers are forget-me-nots and daffodils. .I’d love to get to know you too, so post some facts about yourself in the comments! • And now for the second introduction. Some of you know that I have had a little business called AM Baking. Some of you also know that I actually really hated that name. It was something I picked quickly because I was making some wedding cakes and needed a business name. But I had little time to think it over and I found it really didn’t reflect at all what I wanted my business to be. After months of sitting on a new name idea, I have finally filed my new DBA. .So, please allow me to introduce you to Torta. Torta is the Italian word for Cake! More on why I chose this name in a later post, but for now, I’m just very excited to share with you and for the changes ahead for my little business. .If you have read this far, thank you! Feel free to share your thoughts and some things about you with me too! . #minicheflife #Torta (at Irondequoit, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3zpFSwh2TS/?igshid=quhmjd3t26rl

I really love a cookie with white chocolate chips. And you can argue that white chocolate isn’t really chocolate, but you can’t really argue that they make a good cookie so 🤷🏻‍♀️ . #cookies #doublechocolate #whitechocolate #minicheflife (at Brighton, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2bzEu1Bcb4/?igshid=vantbziugmu8

**SUNFLOWER SPECIAL** I’ve gotten a few requests for sunflower themed sweets that are not cakes, so I figured I’d let everyone know that the Sunflower Special is being extended to cookies and cupcakes as well! Why is it a special? Well, I’m giving a little discount on any order that’s sunflowers. The special is only running until September 15th, though, so get your orders in soon! . #sunflowerspecial #sunflowers #cutouts #cookies #cupcakes #cake #buttercream #buttercreamflowers #handmade #imadethis #homemade #AMBaking #minicheflife (at Brighton, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1zRp9VhLIb/?igshid=1f9fd34672xqj

I really can’t say enough good things about the staff at @ravenwoodweddingsandevents. 10/10 recommend. Our coordinator was Marissa and she is an absolute doll. Super pleasant and friendly, she made us feel like we had known her forever. She was very responsive in communicating and helpful in the planning process. The day of, Marissa and her staff kept everything flowing so smoothly. I worried about nothing. Not only that, but they added touches to the day that I never thought of, or expected. They set up our decorations for us, and while I had ideas for the big things, the girls added such beautiful details that brought it all together stunningly. They took great care of us all day and made our day so special. Thank you @ravenwoodweddingsandevents for such excellent service. If I did it again, I would choose your venue in a heartbeat and will highly recommend you to others. . 📸 @monikaleezaphotography and @allison.nicole.photography Venue: @ravenwoodgolf Florals: @pistilandpollen . #minicheflife (at Ravenwood Golf Club) https://www.instagram.com/p/B04Z4N8hHwV/?igshid=18pbcibd7ct3k

I’ve had this design in my head for months and finally got around to making it this week. Mostly, I just wanted to make a piñata cake, but also, you can never have too many rainbows, so here we are. 🌈 . . #rainbow #rainbowcake #pinata #pinatacake #rainbowsprinkles #sprinkles #paintoncake #palateknife #buttercream #new #fun #justbecause #iwantedto #rainbowbuttercream #cake #surprise #forfun #bright #colorful #roc #rocpride #pridefest #rochesterny #baker #bakerlife #AMBaking #minicheflife https://www.instagram.com/p/B0Jig5oBpNg/?igshid=1e0ceap9hjryk

The most important food item of the day: the cake. Or rather, cookie cake. . Chocolate chip, peanut butter, and white chocolate raspberry cookies, all with vanilla buttercream. . Shout out to my MOH @sifted.bakingco staking this baby for me, morning of. And you @pistilandpollen for the stunning florals. . Also, turns out that traditional wedding cake cutting sets are not meant to cut cookie cakes. Oops. . 📸 @monikaleezaphotography and @allison.nicole.photography . #cake #weddingcake #cookiecake #weddingcookiecake #blueandwhite #chocolatechipcookies #peanutbutter #whitechocolateraspberrycake #freshflowers #cakecutting #benttheknife #oops #wedding #minicheflife (at Ravenwood Golf Club) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0GjPDZhH53/?igshid=3ljyeq6i0ubs

Some of my favorite shots from an absolutely perfect day. It’s hard to narrow it down to just 10 though so prepare for wedding photo spam 😂 . Huge thank you to my friend @monikaleezaphotography for being willing to photograph and document our big day and to my soon-to-be sister in law @allison.nicole.photography for also coming out with us and capturing these moments! These photos are treasures 💕 . #minicheflife #weddingday #ImMrsSchwartznow (at Ravenwood Golf Club) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0D_D0thmRi/?igshid=13i7keo2mt0wh
