A friend of mine asked me to make some baby shower cupcakes, 60 to be exact. She gave me complete freedom with what to do and what flavors to make. The only things she told me were: 1. the colors were red and yellow with a splash of pink and 2. the theme was roses. Here’s what I came up with:
I molded some chocolate roses to add on top of the frosting. I made a couple different cupcakes, Brooklyn Blackout (pretty much a darker devil’s), tie-dye, Cookies n’ Cream, Cinnamon Toast, and Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. The frostings I made were dark chocolate buttercream, vanilla buttercream, cookie dough, and cinnamon cream cheese frosting. I’ll be posting each one individually this week, so keep a lookout for them!
I packed all of the cupcakes into these boxes lined in wax paper and drove off to deliver them. They all traveled so well! What a relief!
Ask me anything on Formspring
Those look great!
Wow, that’s some serious cupcake-making! They look beautiful!
I am drooling at all the flavour combinations…especially cinnamon toast cupcakes. Yum.
Delish!
They look great! I am always so scared about traveling with cupcakes. I bought some cupcake boxes from a bakery once and they were useless! Even with the cupcake holders, the cupcakes toppled out and got messed up a bit (not awful though). I’m making chocolate and vanilla cupcakes, cookies and cream mini cheesecakes, and wedding cake decorated sugar cookies for a friend’s bridal shower this weekend. I am hoping everything travels well. I’m super excited about getting to bake my little heart out later this week.
Wow!! they look incredible
well done! these all look so awesome, I bet they were the hit of the shower!
They look so good. Cookies n Cream cupcakes sound amazing. They all look so cute boxed up..Thanks for sharing.
