Christmas 2011

The orders have kept me very busy this week. I'm grateful for that!

One of the big orders I have for the week...
Be careful & Merry Christmas Santa!



Tangled

What little girl doesn't love a Disney princess movie? When I was asked to make cupcakes for Saige's 3rd birthday, I was all for it.

Rapunzel, Rapunzel let down your hair!






Very Hungry Caterpillar

A friend had her daughter's first birthday planned around the children's book "The Very Hungry Caterpillar." When I saw an example like this on the web, I knew they would love it. I think it turned out adorable.

Golf Course



It's hard to know what to get your Father for his 59th birthday. Why not his own golf course? Could you imaging golfing 59 fairways?

I'm BACK!

Has it really been that long. I should update you for the reason I have been away from updating my blog for so long.

After an extremely busy summer with cupcakes due every week, I decided I needed a little break during the slow fall season. As fall came and went (some would argue it's still hanging around here in Minnesota) I was busy serving on a Committee for my church that hosts a "Faces of the Nativity" Event every other year which has hundreds of nativities on display with live musical performances and a fun children's room. This took up any spare time I had to make cupcakes.
It's over now, and I plan to jump in hard the first part of the year with my business.

Keep an eye out for updated pictures too! Thanks for your support!

Mia's Cakes?????

I was asked to make a cake for one of my friends daughter. To be completely honost, I may have suggested that I make a cake instead of cupcakes for this one. Low and behold, the "Bowling Cake"...

Swing for Sophia

"Swing for Sophia"

I had the honor to make these specific cupcakes for a client a couple weeks ago to match the logo for a families memorial golf benefit raising money for Faith's Lodge.

Glamourous

What a perfect theme for an 11 year old's birthday: Glamour Party!
Hair, Makeup, Nails and a Photo Shoot. The perfect ending?

How about an all pink cupcake that sparkles!



Yup! That'll do it.

Invitation vs. Cupcakes

I was asked to make cupcakes for a baby shower of someone who did not know the gender of their unborn child. After much deliberation with the host, we decided to make the cupcakes match the invitation that was sent out.

The Challenger:


The results:



The invitation had sparkles on the polka dots, and so did the cupcakes. Edible Glitter did the trick!


Fun Summer Time Ideas

Old MacDonald Had a Farm

E-I-E-I-O

My little guy turned one years old last week and this was his party theme... Old MacDonald Had a Farm. He got his own special cake, but all the cousins and family members got a cupcake with the barn animal on it standing in the "grass."

Play-Doh


"Well, that's a weird post to have on a cupcake blog," you say?
Looks can be deceiving!

A friend of mine is having a "Play-Doh" theme birthday party and is going all out. Why not serve the cupcakes in the containers? Super cute, and the kids will love them.

One cupcake per container, cut in half, and a layer of frosting in the middle.
Take it one step further and I can frost the cupcake to match the Play-Doh lid.


Baby Minnie Mouse

A perfect theme for a 1 year olds birthday party. My little neighbor Briella turned 1 this weekend, I got to make her these yummy cupcakes along with a single cake just for her.




Candy Land

A fun Birthday Party idea for any age kid. These represent the Lollipop Forest.

Chocolate Cupcakes with Buttercream frosting dipped in colored sprinkles topped with a Lollipop and a fondant leaf
