Pumpkin Party


These jack-o-lantern cupcakes were the perfect treat for a pumpkin party. I used yellow buttermilk cupcakes as the base and buttercream frosting to make the pumpkins. The face is made with semi-sweet chocolate. All together they add up to a fun tasty treat.

Pretty in Pink and White

Pink and white buttercream paired with chocolate cupcakes were elegant for this bridal shower. The bride wanted a fun dessert with sophistication. I displayed the cupcakes on the tables with different cake stands to make them a focal point as well as the dessert. She received multiple comments from guests about how fun it was to eat cupcakes because they hadn't in a long time. Just another reminder that cupcakes aren't just for kids!
