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...

Monster of Love?

Well, I'm not really sure what kind of monster this little guy is, but he sure is cute.  Cute is exactly what I was after for Valentine's cupcakes for Alex's Preschool class. I think they will like these fun little Love Monsters!

Operation Hunters Birthday

When Hunter's mom asked me if I could make a Camo themed cake for Hunter's birthday, I said sure.  When she sent me a copy of the invitation and the party had an army feel,  I thought, what says army to a little guy more than green army men?  I had to do something with them.

This Operation turned out to be a 2 part mission.  For the first part, i was sent a picture of some cute camo cupcakes and asked if I could make them for Hunter to take to school for his friends on his birthday. I think they turned out pretty cute (for camo, lol)


The second part was for Hunter's actual party.  I was told there would be 20 kids at the party, so I thought I better make sure there are at least 20 green army men.  So we added some cupcakes to the came, complete with Green Army men.  Coordination with a cake, topped with helmet and some army men ready for battle.

There's an App for That?

When I was invited to a surprise retirement party for a dear friend from AT&T, I naturally agreed to make cupcakes for the event.  But what to make? This wonderful woman dedicated almost 23 years to AT&T and the wireless industry, they needed to reflect her amazing career.  So many things have changed in the world of wireless since Darlene joined AT&T, I thought the biggest game changer of all was an appropriate way to honor her, the iPhone!

Thomas the Train

Well, I've never really done a lot with cakes, I seem to prefer my cake in a cup, hehe.  But I had a request for a Thomas the Train cake, specifically chocolate cake with oreo frosting.  Happy to make the flavor combination, I actually like how the oreos look speckled in the green, looks more like real grass or dirt.  Fearing the cake would not be enough cake for the party I added a batch of cupcakes wishing the birthday boy a happy birthday and giving the kids some fun Thomas the Train whistles to enjoy at the party!  Happy Birthday Connor, I hope its a great day!
