Cupcake Catch-up!

Hey Everyone! I know it's been a couple of weeks since I've last blogged but I finally found the chance to sit down and update you all with some of the orders we've had over the past couple of weeks. We have been getting busier as the weeks go by...a good thing!:)

My good friend, Amy, celebrated her 26th birthday and I wanted to do something special for her so of COURSE I customized some scrumptious Nutterbutter & Cafe Au Coconut cupcakes for her. Amy had her wedding in Costa Rica last month and the Cafe Au Coconut was inspired by our trip to Costa Rica. I thought by making this flavor for her birthday, it would remind her of the many fabulous memories from our trip. There was no specific theme for the customization...just wanted to make each cupcake unique and girly. They turned out amazing and they were so fun to design!

I recently had a sampling for Burgundy Velvet, Strawberries N Cream, TARAmisu, Mexican Vanilla Bean, and Cookies N Cream! Please contact us for sampling fees and consultation inquiries.

Take a look at some of the other orders we had for the past couple of weeks...

These Nutterbutters definitely tasted like Nutterbutter cookies and really hit the spot! Topped with chopped peanuts and are also available with hand-poured peanut butter candy hearts for an extra $3/dozen.

These Florida themed cupcakes were ordered for a going away party. The woman ordered them for her best friend who is moving to St. Augustine. Making these cupcakes were a little bittersweet for me as my bestfriend moved to Florida after our senior year of high school back in 2003. I absolutely LOVE the little flip flops on the bottom right corner;)

The red fondant hearts with the "R" initial is the first initial for my client's best friend. I am also loving the cute little fondant suns:)

This little bikini was one of my favs for sure! I love the teal and sparkly pink combo...they really pop!

Of COURSE I had to make some sea shells when making Florida themed cupcakes! Anything beachy reminds me of seashells. I leaped at the opportunity to make these!

First time making palm trees from fondant and I think they turned out pretty great:)

Ahhh yes, of COURSE I threw some fondant Florida oranges in the mix!

These special customized cupcakes below, were for the 8th wedding anniversary of a wonderful couple close to me! I especially love the single fondant rose and gold glitter hearts around it. Made them extra special!;)

Don't these Burgundy Velvet cupcakes look perfect?! Fresh out of the oven with the perfect amount of Burgundy coloring! In case many of you are wondering why I name my red velvet cupcakes Burgundy Velvet, well...burgundy just so happens to be my absolute favorite color, so I HAD to make a cupcake burgundy in color!

TARAmisu at it's best...JUMBO sized! I am obsessed with this dessert and although it does not contain cinnamon, I wanted to give it a special touch, so I added some cinnamon to my recipe! And not just any cinnamon...specially ordered, PREMIUM Korintje cinnamon! It gives the cupcake a nice kick and is so full of flavor:)

All of our Burgundy Velvet cupcakes are topped with a fondant heart for a special touch:)

These Super Mario Cupcakes were probably one of the most fun orders I've had yet! I used to play this Nintendo game back when I was a little kid and LOVED it. The order was for three dozen customized Super Mario cupcakes and two dozen Strawberries N Cream with Vanilla buttercream frosting and were devoured!:)

Jumbo Chocolicious cupcake customized with a fondant fire truck for the 3rd birthday of a little boy....

This past weekend, I worked on a couple different cakes. One was for a 4'' round Chocolicious cake with Strawberries N Cream frosting. The one below, is an 8'' round Lemon Cream cake. The center is filled with a lemon cream cheese filling and topped with a lemon buttercream! Soo light and moist:)

Check back soon to see the adorable mini cupcake Easter basket that was created for our Easter cupcake basket Twitter winner.  Also, we will be announcing our May flavor of the month!

Happy Cupcaking!
