Maiya Dea

I had the honor of making blessing cupcakes for a dear friend's baby girl, Maiya Dea.  She's definitely a "pretty in pink" type of girl, so fitting is the perfectly pink almond frosting atop a dark chocolate cupcake.

Something's Fishy

Oh my!  My baby boy turned ONE year old last Saturday.  We had a small, fishy birthday party for him, complete with fishy cupcakes and a golfish cake.

Yes, I know that fondant makes a cake look a little more polished and "complete," but let's face it, no one really wants to eat fondant.  That's why I pretty much avoid it. 

Baby boy was a little slow at getting into the cake spirit, but after a few minutes he figured out how yummy that orange golfish frosting really was.

Happy Birthday, Baby Boy!

Bite Size Apple Pie

Wow.  I haven't been here in a very long time.  I'm still on the fence regarding my interest in keeping this blog going.  I started this post back in November and thought I'd post it and see how I feel.

Anyway.  I found this recipe for Mini Apple Pies on none-other-than Pinterest.  It was super easy and they really were quite tasty and fun to eat.  My kids even enjoyed them!

I think I'm going to delete this blog.

Skeleton Cookies

Oh, how I love Pinterest!  I used the same gingerbread cookie recipe used here, and used store bought icing to pipe on the the skeleton bones.  Happy Haunting!

Teacher Appreciation

I was honored to make cupcakes for a local elementary school's teacher appreciation banquet. The idea came directly from Disney's Family Fun magazine. Aren't they adorable?
