A New Business

A good friend of mine has started a new business as a Mary Kay Consultant, and she decided to have an open house to kick off her new business venture. When she asked if I could make her a few cupcakes the first thing that came to mind was the signature Pink Mary Kay color. I love how cute the little make up items turned out on the pink beauties.




Colorful Princess

When I was asked to make princess cupcakes I was thrilled, I never get to do girly stuff. Mom asked for some ideas for the birthday girl, so I sent home several ideas. I was quite surprised when she picked the fairly simple ones, and gave me her color requests and her selection of tiaras for the tops. As I was frosting the little cuties last night I found myself getting so excited over how great the colors are. I sure hope she likes them as much as I do!

Princess Pops

Since we didn't have the best of luck transporting the Tangled Tower Cones we decided to come up with a treat that was a little easier to transport to school. Enter Pretty Princess Pops. These colorful little ladies are just too pretty to eat ;)

Rapunzel, Let Down Your Hair

When I was asked to make these adorable Rapunzel's Tower cupcakes, I quickly said yes! First of all, they are adorable, second Tangled is one of my favorite Disney movies and third I had never done ice cream cone cupcakes....

As much fun as these adorable little towers were, they were equally as much a transportation nightmare! Transporting decorated cones is one thing, let alone when they are decorated on the outside of the cone. Needless to say these poor creations met a similar fate as the evil lady who kidnapped the princess and locked her in the tower... Ah, my first transportation disaster...

Happy St. Patricks Day!

Looking for the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow? Turns out making the chocolate pots was more time consuming than I had planned...but never fear, we still have gold at the end of the rainbow...gold M&M's that is. I'm sure Alex's friends won't mind the missing pot when the dig into these yummy green velvet cupcakes.

Twilight

I must admit I'm probably one of about 6 women in America who has NOT seen any of the Twilight movies. My boss however I'm sure has seen them all a dozen times and has asked me almost as many time to make her Twilight cupcakes. Since today was my last day at her location I thought I would finally make her some cupcakes... Still having no clue who or what any of this is about...
