Cupcakes!!


Below are the cupcakes that I have made for parties. Cupcakes are a great alternative to cake because they are easy to serve, come in portion controlled sizes, and can be made in a variety of flavors. Plus, they are just cute!! 

These are some Halloween cupcakes that I made for a Halloween Party. The hats below are made out of fondant and are on top of a white cake with buttercream icing. 


Below are chocolate cupcakes with a peanut butter cream cheese icing and a Reese's Cup on top. 


Cookies and Cream Cupcakes with a chocolate cookie baked inside and a chocolate cookie buttercream icing. They are topped with an Oreo Cookie.

Chocolate cupcakes with a cream cheese frosting topped with a fondant gravestone.

Below are white cupcakes topped with buttercream frosting and a white fondant ghost. 


 These are some cupcakes that I made for a garden themed party. These were white cakes with buttercream icing and fondant flowers to decorate.





This cupcake was made for a Purse Party. The chocolate cake was topped with buttercream and a fondant purse. 


These cakes were made for a baby shower. This is the back view of the cake with the fondant feet and blanket.


This is the front of the blanket with the baby's face and blanket. The cake was a dense chocolate cake. 



This variety of cupcakes was for a party that my sister threw. They are (left to right) cookies and cream, peanut butter cup, mint chocolate chip, Boston Cream Cake, and chocolate covered strawberry. 





Yes, these are cupcakes!! These "cupcake bouquets" look adorable in flower pots! For my friend, Amber's Housewarming party, I made her a few cupcake bouquets. Then, she used the flower pots in her garden. They look like real roses and can be made with any cake flavor. 



These mint juleps were made for a Derby party. They have an actual Crown Royal Cake and mint flavored icing. They are as close to a mint julep as can be!
