Blown Away!

These cupcakes were made for ELEGANT hair salon in Oyster Bay, NY. The client (Roseanne) wanted to surprise the owner with these as Grand Opening support. The customers getting a cut and blow today got a very sweet Thank You to go!
I am always excited with new and original opportunities to have my cupcake creations change the course of someone's day, with a smile!!

Cupcakes and Tigers & Bulldogs, Oh My!!

When I first heard of Celia's request for her birthday cupcakes, I thought it was an odd combo. Dogs and tigers? Well, after deciding on a design, I realized they are both beautiful creatures that share the grass and sky. Celia is such a free spirit, it would be so typical that she could see the odd couple as beautiful! Happy Birthday Celia Rose! I hope you have a woofderful roaring birthday!

Stuffed.

Yes, it's that time of year that our waist lines stretch and our taste buds are in overdrive. Thanksgiving is such a comfort holiday being with the ones we love and remembering all the many blessings we have as we celebrate over a big meal.
I browsed online and was inspired by cute everything and revised my cake slice to a pumpkin pie slice. My pumpkin cupcakes are so yummy, I love to eat em without any icing at all but today made a vanilla cream icing with pumpkin pie spice speckled throughout and it is divine! The turkeys are made from caramel so it's a cupcake/candy combo....sugar rush.
Hope you all have a great Thanksgiving and thanks for stopping by!

Surprise 70th!

Can I tell you how flattering it is to get a call for an order from someone who has never met me but yet has total faith that I can fulfill what they need? Well, I get such a thrill from these requests and always get most excited doing something new. Amy called me and needed cupcakes for her Dad's surprise 70th and she told me about him and we decided to use his hobbies for the toppers. I love the way they came out and such a welcome change from all the Halloween I've been doing for the past week. I hope Walter enjoys the party in his honor and the cupcakes that tell a little story about him.......

Give it away now

My Mom is so easy to please. She loves to bake and is famous for her friendship bread (it takes 10 days to prepare before baking!!), her rum cake and best of all, her Cuban flan. She will often bake for no reason and randomly select people in her life to share her baked goodness with so it comes as no surprise that the Church she is very dedicated to, asked her for a baked "donation" for a bake sale and she volunteered my Babycakes. I hope this small batch will stand up to her reputable edibles!!

Class Reunion

My good friend Mary was her class president in high school and did her duty to organize the Locust Valley Class Reunion. The Class of 90 is going to enjoy these chocolate, vanilla and pumpkin cupcakes! Mary had thought it would be a great party favor and I loved making each and every indivdual package. Mary is one of those people who will go out of her way to make sure she puts a smile on your face so I hope these made her happy.

Spooktacular Cupcakes!

When Nancy called me to order some cupcakes, I was so excited to do Halloween cupcakes for the first time! Her son, Cooper is six and is celebrating by having a very fun birthday party at his house. There's a scavenger hunt and guests are coming in costume! I made sure to include some of my birthday themed cupcakes in there using the same spooky colors so that it would all blend. It was so cute to see the guest of honor all excited when I made my delivery!
