Masquerade!

My sister-in-law Katie made this beautiful Topsy Turvey cake for a masquerade birthday party this last weekend. 

It was her first one and it turned out incredible!! 

Chocolate Strawberry Cupcakes

I made these this week as a special request and was thinking... "why didn't I think of that!"

Some people just have the greatest ideas.

It's like two yummy treats in one!

4th Of July Graduation Party

This Summer we made a trip back to Ohio for a couple weeks. It was so much fun!

While we were home, my youngest brother Jack had his high school graduation party.

He wanted cupcake kabobs to share with the guests so I made these vanilla cupcakes with strawberry spacers. They were great and people loved them!

 As a surprise, I made Jack a cake that looked like a American flag when you cut into it.

(You can see the whole cake in the background to the left on the table.)

It was red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting... and 5 layers!!!

People loved it and it was so yummy too!

(flag cake instructions here)

Jack is going to the University of Cincinnati and will be pursuing a degree in law enforcement. I thought the flag would be great for both 4th of July and his future profession!

Congrats Jack!

Happy 13th Birthday Krista!

I made these mint chocolate cupcakes for a 13th birthday party 2 weeks ago.

They were chocolate cupcakes filled with creamy chocolate filling and topped with mint frosting (with an Andes mint of corse!)

 Krysta wanted bright green, pink and yellow frosting to match her party colors... they were so fun to make!

(and even more fun to eat I'm sure!)

Happy 13th Birthday Krista!

Wedding cupcakes for Michelle and Rich

My best friend Jennys' sister Michelle got married a couple weeks ago and she wanted a small cutting cake and some cupcakes for her reception.

Her decorations were all bright colors and flowers in vases with jelly beans... it was so pretty!

And the cupcakes matched perfectly!

Congratulations to Michelle and Rich!

Lizzi's Wedding Cupcakes!

This past weekend I catered a wedding with 250 blue and green flower cupcakes and they turned out great! The flowers were made of (my favorite) marshmallow fondant, and the cupcakes were all chocolate and vanilla mix. Very classy!

 The bride and her mom painted this cute cupcake stand to match their decor and it fit so well!

The cake topper was vanilla cake filled with oreo filling. (YUM!)
 Congrats to the beautiful Bride and Groom on their special day!
