Caribbean Theme Cupcake Tower





I love this tower!! It is so much fun. The tower was created for an engagement party that had a Caribbean theme; from the decorations to the food the entire room felt like you were transported. The cake, of course, was made by Patty; she really outdid herself. The pirate has so much personality, I just love him. The cupcake flavors are; banana with cream cheese frosting, yellow with vanilla buttercream, coconut with cream cheese frosting and white chocolate with vanilla buttercream all tinted colors to go along with the cake.

30th Birthday Cookies


These cookies were created to go along with a cake that my friend Patty made. The client asked that I incorporate all the themes from the cake onto sugar cookies. Pictures of the cake can be found here.

I created these cupcakes and small cake for my friend Laurie. Her dad was coming into town from Connecticut and she wanted to celebrate his birthday with a theme of his favorite past time; playing cards. I don't normally do cakes, but did this one since it was the request of a good friend. (Excuse the bad frosting job)! The cake was coconut the cupcake flavors were; chocolate with vanilla buttercream, yellow with vanilla buttercream and red velvet with cream cheese. The cake was also to say goodbye to her son who was going back to college in California.

12th Birthday Cupcakes


These were created for a boy who was having a boy/girl party in the backyard for his 12th birthday. His mom asked for cupcakes that were pretty generic and fun. This is what I came up with. I hope he liked them. Yellow cupcakes with vanilla buttercream and chocolate fudge frosting.

Jill & Scott's Wedding



The bride just sent me these beautiful photographs from her wedding on July 17th. I'm so glad she did, because I wasn't able to get a picture of the tower the day of. I love how the purple looks. The top cake was made by Patty. It looks like some guests got into the cupcakes before the bride and groom cut the cake :)
The cupcake flavors are: Chocolate with vanilla buttercream, Yellow with vanilla buttercream and Carrot with cream cheese frosting.
