A Dream Come True: Southern Starr Bakery
This is a guest blog post by Suzanna Starr Williams. She is the owner and operator of Southern Starr Bakery in Nicholasville, Kentucky.

It limited the jobs I could do, since my scheduling ...

It was the 80's, and long before Food Network and shows like Ace of Cakes. Our little town had a local cake decorator named Fern Hamblin. Her little cake business was called Fern's Frosting and she was located in Reidland, KY. I remember so many of her cakes, and remember being so amazed by them at a young age. The one that stands out the most was a hamburger cake that she made for my aunt's birthday. Of course back then I never knew I'd grow up to be a cake decorator, but Fern and ...
