Birthday Cupcakes

I had a few different orders for birthday cupcakes lately. Here are some Elmo, princess, and golden birthday cupcakes.

Hot Wheels

When I was young Hot Wheels were a big thing. I remember my brother and cousin playing with them all the time. Now I had the chance to make a cake and cupcakes for a little 2 year old's party.

 His mom added some cars to the cake before the party.

 Chocolate Peanut Butter, Rocky Road, and Snickers cupcakes.

I got these awesome toppers here.

Butterfly Cupcakes

I got to make these cute cupcakes for a little girl's birthday party. It's hard to tell but they're topped with lots of edible glitter!

 



Graduation

Graduation was a busy time for cupcake making!

 

I printed the toppers from these websites:

Baby Shower

Cupcakes for an animal print themed baby shower - red velvet, lemon blueberry, chocolate peanut butter.

 

 

Owl Cake & Cupcakes

I was asked to make this adorable cake for a 1st birthday party this weekend. I was given a picture and asked to replicate it. I covered the cake in frosting instead of fondant but used fondant for the deocarations. It took a lot of time to do all the little details but I think it was worth it.

 

First Birthday

I forgot to post these pictures from about a month ago! These weren't actually for a 1 year old, but for a 5 year old celebrating his first birthday in America. All he wanted was a chocolate cupcake so he was really excited to have 24! It was a special celebration!

Legos

These were really fun to make! They were for a little boy's birthday party and I heard he loved them! I was so happy to find the free cupcake picks here.

 

Lego men!

Back to School!

It's already that time again - time for school to start! Today was our second day of teacher inservice and the kids start next week. I can't believe how summer goes by so fast!

I was asked to make some school themed cupcakes for a teacher retirement party. Being a teacher, I had a lot of fun with these.

Hawaiian Birthday

 

I'm not quite as confident decorating cakes, but I think this turned out alright.

Aloha!

Cupcakes, cake pops, cupcakes, cupcakes...

I've fallen behind on my posts lately, but school's out for summer so I'm playing catch up! Despite my lack of posts I've been busy baking, including these cupcakes for a wedding last weekend. Check out the next few posts.

Vanilla raspberry, mocha, and caramel apple.

Show Choir & Jazz Band

I was asked to make some cupcakes for the high school show choir and jazz band. I chose to make vanilla, chocolate peanut butter, and a new flavor - rocky road.

I've seen a lot of recipes for rocky road but wasn't sure what I wanted. I decided to go with chocolate cake, marshmallow frosting, chocolate drizzle, and almonds. I think it needed a little more marshmallow flavor so I'll keep experimenting!

Confirmation Cupcakes

Red velvet, chocolate peanut butter, lemon blueberry, and chocolate chocolate with just a little frosting per request!

State Basketball

My hometown boys basketball team is headed the the state competition for the first time in 60 years! I was a basketball cheerleader in high school and have so many good memories of those games. Being a small town, the whole community is really excited and supporting the team. I thought I'd show my support by making maroon and silver cupcakes for the Wolverine team!

 

Happy Valentine's Day!

Superbowl

 Chocolate, peanut butter, caramel, pretzel
