Is spring here yet?!

I had so much fun making these cupcakes. I think it is the whole "miniature scene" kind of theme. Everything you see is completely edible. All made out of Fondant icing or buttercream icing. I was going to just make it a bumble bee & watermelon theme but I thought the that Mr. Bee looked lonely so I added some Lady bug friends to join him. I think I may have a hard time eating these guys cause they are way too cute.

Daisy Cupcakes

 





French Vanilla Frosted Rainbow & Chocolate Cake cupcakes.



These Cupcakes too were for our church's bake sale. All the funds are going to go towards fundraising for "World Youth Day."
I got these cupcake papers & daisies from the "Martha Stewart Collection". They have been sitting in my cupboard for a while waiting to be made for the perfect event.

 I love polka dots. This is what Sold me on buying these paper cups...


But....

With much disappointment....
They DID NOT SHOW UP!!! err Sorry Martha!


I love Ya but I'm not happy with your paper cups.


Look at the picture below....
......No yellow??!!! No POLKA DOTS!!!
Sigh :(
Any who....
I was going to do plain French Vanilla cupcakes.(this is the batter before they hit the oven)..but I thought that was kinda boring, so I thought Id add a splash of color-with Wilton gel color (rose pink, sky blue, and yellow butter cream)...It really changed the whole look of what I had planned for the cupcakes...
so much for boring white...I think I could find this my new favorite thing so fun!
These were super Colorful & really yummy.
I know that at the sale probably 90% of the people are probably guilty "Chocolate Lovers"like me...So I couldn't be a part of a bake sale with no Chocolate....

So I gave in.

I whipped up Another batch of Double Chocolate Cupcakes. I wonder which will sell faster? The rainbow bright cupcakes or Chocolate?
Or maybe no one will buy them at all?
who am I kidding...they will be gone.......right?!

"I hope."




(all packed and ready to go)..
