cupcakes with a cake on top!

I am seeing more and more weddings that feature cupcakes for guests and a tier or two of wedding cake for the couple to use for the ceremonious cutting. I decided a long time ago that when I get married, I’m going to have an elaborate 2 tiered, smaller cake and then several cupcakes for […]

a cake decorator’s heaven

If heaven is anything like I think it will be…(other than having a multitude of dachshund puppies) it might closely resemble the Cake Art PartyStore in Tucker, Georgia. I learned about this store from reading Bakeralla’s blog. She is a FANTASTIC baker and blogger.  This is a store that she freqents for baking and cake decorating supplies. They must have […]

this weekend’s sweet treats #2

I was a VERY happy baker this weekend. Why? Because Virginia Tech dominated Miami – something very few saw coming, 31 – 7. We are now sitting comfortably in the #6 positon in both the AP Top 25 poll as well as the USA Today poll. Enough about football – but the moral of the […]

kara’s cakery cake designer

I have to share this with you because I was so impressed. Patricia, whom Brandon used to work with, has the sweetest, most creative daughter. Her name is Tiana and she is a big fan of Kara’s Cakery. She designed the “Skittles Cupcake” and I was very impressed with her vision and ability to come up […]

funfetti is so fun

Someone suggested I post recipes on my blog. So in lieu of today being my Friday (yes.. I have a four day weekend) and it being a holiday weekend, here is a recipe for Funfetti Cupcakes! Perhaps you could use red, white and blue jimmies to make them Labor Day cupcakes! I haven’t tried this recipe […]

lego cupcakes

Saw a link for “nerdy cupcakes” and thought of my boyfriend – who BTW loves Lego’s. The possibilities are endless!

happy friday

One thing that made me happy today (other than the fact that it is Friday) is the post about these cupcakes. As you already know, I love crumbs and doilies blog. Here are cupcakes they did for a green, gold, and cream wedding. When I think of these colors, I think of leprechauns, but these […]

love, love, LOVE crumbs and doilies

Crumbs and Doilies has to be one of my favorite websites/blogs. They are a cupcakery in London but they aren’t like the run of the mill cupcake shop here in the states. They are very creative. Maybe I’m obsessed with the multitude of sprinkles they use – I don’t know, but I love logging in […]

meringue flowers

Martha Stewart posted a “chrysanthemum cupcake” recipe on her website and I LOVE them! So I am going to try it out… … but instead of regular icing, I’m going to try to make them out of meringue. If you’ve ever had a yule log dessert with the meringue mushrooms – you know what I’m […]

wedding cupcakes

Since I had a few flower punch outs left over, I figured I’d make a few cupcakes for the funding officers on the desk at work that were so kind as to let me sit with them and absorb everything they do. Plus, I could photograph them to show as examples for wedding cupcakes! And since […]
