Cinderella Cookies and Cupcakes

A few pictures of my weekend project.  If you have any questions on technique, please leave a comment and I will answer your question.

Hello Kitty

How could you not love Hello Kitty?

DIY Valentine...

Yes, I could have easily gone to the store and purchased a box of Valentines for my daughter's class, but you I am a little extra!  I came across these CUTE free Valentine's Day printables at oh goodie designs and I knew I wanted to use them in some way.  In case you can't see all of the text in the pics, they say "You Blow My Mind VALENTINE"

My daughter wanted balloons, but aren't the bubbles just adorable?

And for the teacher (who by the way, I am reminded every time we are on the candy aisle in a store, LOVES M&Ms) I used what I had. A mini mason jar, a cupcake liner, and some scrap ribbon made this into a thoughtful little package!

I think we are all set for Valentine's Day 2013.  What do you think?

Carnival Party Pics

So... The Carnival Party is a bit of a memory now, but I never posted a full set of pics on the blog.  It was a success and some of the kids said it was the best party they had been to.  Exactly what I wanted to hear. I didn't catch every photo I wanted to, but you can get a feel for the day from the ones you will see below.
First, the invitations.  These invitations were created by cgcdesignz.  They really set the tone for the party!

Red Velvet Everything

Red Velvet anything is the hottest thing smoking these days.  Here are a few pics of the Red Velvet whoopie pies and the Red Velvet mini donuts I made a few weeks ago. I won't bore you with my recipe, but let's just say, my red velvet is always a hit, be it cake, cupcakes, donuts, whoopie pies, or even waffles.  If you really want the recipe, leave me a comment and let me know.

50th Birthday Sweets Table

Here are some pictures of a Sweets Table I put together for my friend's 50th birthday.  I am so proud of how it came out; mostly because I had to travel from Chicago to Atlanta with my kitchen in a suitcase to pull this one off.

On the Table:
Red Velvet Cupcakes, Chocolate Brown Sugar Butter Cream Cupcakes, Strawberry Shortcake Shooters, Carrot Cake Donuts, Fondant covered Sugar Cookies, Strawberry Vanilla Cake Pops, and Chocolate covered Pretzels.
