What a weekend

When I get a sizable order, especially for cupcakes, it never seems to be a single order weekend. Case in point last weekend!

Thursday (it was a long weekend) I made 24+ Chocolate cupcakes with chocolate frosting. I call the jury to glance at Exhibit A (the picture to your left. But of course I'm not going to simply show you a close up of a few of the said cup cakes. Oh no no no my dear friend.




I give you, exhibit B --->

Camera pulls back for the audience to see stacks and stacks of tasty and perfectly frosted delectables. (Not only do I use legal jargon but I also use script wording to show how versatile I am)


But like I said, it wouldn't be a weekend of orders if I didn't have another large order to follow shortly there after.



Next I present Mini Red Velvet Cupcakes, Bridal Shower style!
So a good friend of mine is getting hitched in the near future. And I was honored to be able to add to the shower festivities by bringing some fun, adorable little Mini Red Velvets.

This being a bridal shower I couldn't simply make mini cupcakes in white paper liner with some cream cheese frosting thrown on the top. I mean, if we're going to go we might as go all out! Being the go big or go home kind of chick when it comes to baking I incorporated the colors to the best of my abilities. The colors being fall colors and red being covered by the simple choice of Red Velvet, I baked the cupcakes in adorable orange and white dotted paper liners with yellow sugar sprinkled on top. I've provided a close up (well closer up than the first picture)




Yeah I don't know if you can tell all that from the pictures, but there you have it. The weekend also included baking three apple pies; two for the shower and another for my best customer, Moe.

So all in all it was a good baking weekend that ended in me eating way too many bite-size, oh so pop-able Red Velvet cupcakes.

So anyone need treats for up coming parties, showers, or Tuesday evenings?! Let me know, I'd be glad to help you out!
