My co-worker is celebrating a significant milestone, and a friend ordered her some chocolate cherry cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. I couldn’t give her bare cupcakes, so I added butterflies and flowers in her favorite color: red. Happy Birthday Tami!

These cupcakes were commissioned for Alanna’s bridal shower. A yellow cake and chocolate buttercream are topped with fondant flowers in her favorite colors, which have a M&M center.

These mini red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting were commissioned as part of a graduation party dessert table. Small and dainty, it’s hard to stop at just one.

My coworker’s daughter Nava is no ordinary girl. She loves Diego from Nick Jr.’s television show “Dora the Explorer.”  These Diego face cupcake toppers are made from a combination of fondant and chocolate, and sit atop a classic chocolate cupcake with vanilla buttercream. Delish! Happy 3rd birthday Nava!

This cake was designed to match the adorable train-themed baby shower invite for my cousin Susie. The cake is vanilla with vanilla buttercream. I also made train-themed cupcakes to decorate each table at the shower.

I had to travel with these goodies, so I opted for a new technique. These toppers are made of craft paper, and attached to lollipop sticks. Congrats Susie and Weston; I can’t wait to meet  your little guy!
