Saint Patty's Day Rainbow Cupake

I made these cupcakes for a recipe group I belong to.  They were fun to make and were very tasty!  I used my signature vanilla recipe and then added color.  The topping is a stabelized whipped cream and is suppose to resemble a cloud.  Of course I would love to find gold at the end of a rainbow so I added chocolate gold pieces.  TFL!

Baby Kenneth Cupcakes

I took dinner over to a friend who recently had a baby so at the last minute I decided to make these for dessert. 
They are classic white with a sweet cream filling colored blue and a whipped buttercream to top them off.  The decorations are fondant.

Cupcake Giveaway Winning Flavor

The winning flavor was emailed to me from a local reader. It is pina colada filled with a coconut cream and topped off with sweetened whipped cream blended with pineapple. I thought that might be too much going on but it tasted great and is light and airy. Perfect for spring.

Nathan's First Birthday Farm Cake

This cake was so much fun to make and I LOVE the way it turned out!  The bottom cake is chocolate fudge frosted with chocolate ganche and covered with fondant.  The top cake is white with raspberry filling and frosted with white chocolate ganache.  The white cake was my favorite but that isn't suprising- I love raspberry filling.  Nathan's smash cake is the same as the top cake and he really liked it- I'm sure you can tell by looking at the pics!
