Bumblebees and Flowers
The flowers were created using a Wilton leaf piping tip. The center of the flower is black sprinkles.
Happy Birthday with a Rose!
For friends birthday, I created these roses from fondant. They are actually pretty simple even though they may look complex. The key is to let them dry for a long time so that the fondant does not become too soft when placed on the buttercream. Next time I am going to try to use a mixture of gumpaste and fondant.
FAME Cupcakes_White Chocolate
My elementary school has a behavior support program called FAME. This stands for "F"ocus on Respect, "A"lways act safely, "M"ake myself proud, b"E" responsible. These cupcakes were made for a teacher luncheon.
The cupcake is actually White Chocolate. It is a vanilla cake with white chocolate chunks!

Sweet Raspberry
Raspberry buttercream paired with dark chocolate cake. Raspberry buttercream is extremely sweet. To make it less sweet, I add cream cheese.

For the Princess
These princess cupcakes were made for a little girls birthday party. Everything on the cupcake is edible. I used fondant to create the crowns and star wands. To create the rounded shape of the crown, I let the fondant harden pressed up against a cylinder shape. I then brushed it with edible glitter so that it would sparkle.

Spread the Love
My mom was looking through some articles today on the Internet about cupcakes. Did you know that pink is the most commonly asked for icing color?
Peanut Butter and Jelly with a Different Look
These Peanut Butter and Jelly cupcakes were created to coordinate with the Minnie Mouse Cupcakes. I tried to keep them simple since the frosting is tan in color.
