Light Pink and White

2010-12-04T21:25:00.000-08:00

I made this cake for a church activity. It was super fun to make. I just don't get to decorate as much as I would like. It just calms me. I love it.

Roaches and Rats!!

2010-12-04T21:19:00.000-08:00

This is taken at the end of the night, but these are the cupcakes I made for the night. There were also just plain with sprinkles, but the cockroaches and rat faces were my favorite. So fun to make. These are also from the Hello, Cupcake book.

Bows

2010-12-04T21:16:00.000-08:00

Sometimes I venture into other crafts. I made these bowsfor Halloween. They are kind of art right? I had fun making them. They are nothing special but still fun to do.

Halloween Cupcakes

2010-12-04T21:13:00.000-08:00

Here are the cupcakes I made for my sons preschool party. Green, vanilla cake with cream cheese frosting and crushed up Oreos.

Here is Jaba. I envisioned something way, way different and ended up with this. So I went with the above cupcake design.

Brown-Sugar Vanilla Cupcakes!

2010-12-04T21:11:00.000-08:00

Brown-Sugar Vanilla Cupcakes

Ok, here are my thoughts on these sweets. This is a very heavy cake, it needs to be sliced thin or have something in the middle. A bite of just cake is a little much. They are really good warm, really good. This cake would be good cut into chunks and served with fruit and whipped cream (the good homemade stuff). Hmm, getting hungry again....

Bug Off!!

2010-12-04T21:06:00.000-08:00

Here are the cupcakes. I have Hello Cupcake and What's New, Cupcake? and I let Joshie look through them and pick what he wanted. He wanted vanilla with bugs on top. I love those book. Anyway, these were fun to make. The Darth Vader candle is what Joshie wanted, his party really didn't have a theme.

Blueberry Buckle

2010-12-04T21:04:00.000-08:00

If 5 cups of blueberries are wrong, I don't want to be right! I made this yummy blueberry buckle the other day, yummy.

I stumbled upon this blog one day (I think it is where I got the pumpkin butter recipe):
One Perfect Bite
She has some amazing recipes on there. We have yet to try one we don't like. Mmmmm blueberry buckle.
