Little Mermaid Cupcakes

Like I said, girly heaven! Here are some Little Mermaid themed cupcakes I did for the sweet little daughter of a friend of mine. Little Mermaid figurines, chocolate shells and sugar pearls all atop buttercream frosting- yum!

Princess Cupcakes

Since I only have boys, I jump on any chance I get to make girly treats. These past couple weeks I've had 2 cupcake orders for girls' birthday parties- I was in pink and purple heaven! Here's some princess themed cupcakes...

Happy 4th of July!

Have I ever mentioned that I LOVE the 4th of July? Really, I love just about every holiday, but there's something about the 4th of July that's just so fun and festive. I made some rice krispie treats for the occasion, so I'll post those later, but until then, enjoy this picture of some yummy star-shaped french toast from our breakfast this morning (made to the tune of Miley Cyrus' "Party in the USA and Martina McBride's "Independence Day").

Happy Independence Day!

Cupcake Tasting.

I'm so excited to be making a wedding cake for a friend from high school! Her wedding isn't until July, but I made a bunch of different flavored cupcakes for her to taste today. Top row were chocolate and Bourbon vanilla cupcakes with buttercream frosting, second row were strawberry buttercream and then some European buttercream on the bottom row. And a little test for a fondant magnolia in the bottom corner.f Can't wait to see what flavors she and her fiancee decide to go with! Thanks to The Calligraphy Girl for the beautiful cupcake signs!

Pretty Cupcakes.

I'm not too sure why I never did a post about these cupcakes because I thought they turned out gorgeous! They were for the Baptism party for the daughter of a friend of mine from high school. I did chocolate and vanilla cupcakes with cream cheese-buttercream frosting- yum!

Bowling Cake & Cupcakes

So I haven't posted any new pictures because either a) I've been busy to bake anything, b) what I have managed to bake, I've already done and photographed before or c) what I baked wasn't worth posting. Welcome in the bowling birthday party! Here's a bowling pin cake along with bowling ball cupcakes I made for a birthday party a week ago for my friend's adorable son, Talan (in case you couldn't read the cake). The party was so much fun and my 4 1/2 year old had a blast bowling! Who knew that 5 year old's could bowl??

Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Cookies

One of my favorite kinds of cookies to decorate are character cookies, especially from kids shows. I do a lot of the Yo Gabba Gabba cookies but I got an order for Mickey Mouse Clubhouse-themed cookies so I thought it would be super cute to make "toodles" cookies. These were a lot of fun to decorate and I love it when kids recognize their favorite characters as a delicious cookie!
