Teapots and Flowers for a Bridal Shower

These were created for a Bridal Shower. Love the flowers!

Bumblebees and Flowers

These cupcakes were created for a girl's 1st birthday.  The bumblebees were first iced with vanilla buttercream, then white chocolate heart wings were pressed into the cupcake. Black fondant stripes were pressed into the buttercream. The head was squeezed onto the body using a pastry bag.  The eyes are made of white and black fondant and two mini chocolate chips as the antennas.

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!

Baby Shower Cupcakes

A bunch of various cupcakes made for a baby shower.

Happy 30th Birthday!

A friend's husband was turning 30. He is a big Dallas Cowboy's fan so I created navy blue stars. The number 30 is spray painted with edible silver spray. The cupcake flavors and Chocolate with Peanut Butter Butter Cream and Vanilla with Chocolate Fudge Frosting.

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.

For the Princess

These are perfect for the little princess!  The toppers are made of fondant. I would have liked pink or princess liners, however, I didn't have any with me.

Starbursts

I has some extra buttercream so I tried to experiment using different methods. I thought this technique looked like little starbursts.

Mini Pies

These cupcakes were created using red and blue m&ms. Tan/Brown icing was piped across and around the cupcake to create the pie crust. This idea was taken from the book What's New, Cupcake?.

Goldfish

These cupcakes were made for my nephews end-of-year baseball party. The goldfish were created using circus peanuts, m&ms, and apple jacks. The idea came from a book called What's New, Cupcake?.
