June 2012
Greetings!
A very busy cake season is in full swing. From Graduation cakes to Wedding cakes, big and small, people are celebrating life's special moments with Satin Ice cakes. We're pleased to say that Satin Ice is being used by more and more bakers around the world every day. We continue our mission to provide international hands-on training to ensure that Satin Ice users enjoy the best possible results. To our readers who are bakers and cake artists, if you are currently providing Satin Ice instruction at your location - or would like to - please email us at support@satinfinefoods.com. We also are expanding to the home baker with our upcoming retail pack. We tested the concept at the recent International Dairy Deli Bakery Association show in New Orleans, and we were received enthusiastically by supermarkets. We are well on our way to bringing our products to the consumer market very soon. Looking forward to a warm and sunny summer season. Until next time, Kevin Kevin O' Reilly, Founder and CEO Satin Fine Foods, Inc.  | |

SISTERS WITH SMILES
Lorelei was born with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. She has had three open heart surgeries and two strokes and suffers from life threatening seizures. Her family was told that she may never walk or talk, but she and her family worked overtime to prove all the doctors wrong. Now 7 years old, Lorelei is able to walk, and she even talks a little. She has taught her family and friends how to love and to cherish life even more.
Shelbey is Lorelei's amazing 5-year-old little sister who always wants to help teach Lorelei everything. Even though life can sometimes be hard, Shelbey is always a trooper and a special blessing to her family.
Lauren Nettles from St. Peters, MO, created special celebration cakes for Lorelei's and Shelbey's recent birthday celebration. Lauren created a large party cake, along with smaller versions for each sister to enjoy. We are proud to add that Lauren also serves Icing Smiles as one of our administrative volunteers.
Icing Smiles is a nonprofit organization that provides custom celebration cakes to families impacted by the critical illness of a child.

Simple tricks to get the look you want.
