Little Boy Blue…with Lime Green Cupcakes!

Mar21

Baby Shower Cupcakes for a Boy

Baby blue and lime green were perfect colours for the Baby Shower Cupcakes that Jenny ordered for her daughter’s  baby shower.  With all the guests definitely Oohing and Aahing the new mom- to-be and all her gorgeous gifts for her new baby the cupcakes had to be Oohable too.  I made lime green babygros with contrasting tiny buttons and added stitching detail to the arms and legs.  The teddies with their cute faces I made with blue sugar paste with green sugar paste for their little round tummies.  The boottees, baby feet and bottles are all made from sugar paste and I sourced the blue storks from Jodees.  Thank you again Jenny for your cupcake order and wishing you and your daughter the best of giggles and loves with your new grandson.

Thank you Jeanine for including my cupcakes in your birthday celebration again this year, I take it as a great compliment that clients such as yourself have remained loyal to Cupcakes2Delite.  As usual your birthday decor and attention to detail was beautiful and I loved making this pretty petite pink roses for your cupcakes to match your theme.  These cupcakes were pretty and elegant in their silver cupcake holders and I hope they proved a delight to your guests with their strawberry and white chocolate flavour.

Take time to smell the roses…..!

Thank you Lisa (TQO)  for another order for birthday cupcakes for one of your numerous friends….aren’t they really privileged to have you as a friend and lucky to have me as a cupcake maker!  These roses seem to be so popular this year and I never tire making them as they always look quite delightful nestled in their own whirls of creamy icing.  I added generous drizzles of  zesty lime green, tickled pink and lovely lavender pearls to the cupcakes to match each colour rose and popped the completed cupcakes into these zany pink and white polka dot cupcake holders.

Toblerone Cupcakes

Toblerone Cupcakes

Inspired by Paul’s love for all things chocolate, I made these Toblerone Cupcakes for his birthday.  They were a simple chocolate delight to make as I baked chocolate chip cupcakes with creamy vanilla icing and then placed a chunky piece of Toblerone on each cupcake so that there was an irresistable bite of delicious honey, nutty chocolate with each mouthful of chocolate cupcake.  These cupcakes were a pleasure to photograph in their delightful “cupcake” cupcake cases – thank you Tracy for thinking of me when you came across them.

Farmyard Cupcakes

Farmyard Cupcakes

Lyn asked me to do cupcakes with a Farmyard theme for a 2 year old’s birthday party.  Not being a natural artist when it comes to animals, I had to google and get ideas for these cupcakes.  I came across the idea to make just the animal heads from sugar paste and I made horses, pigs, sheep, cows and chickens with their naughty expressions and then iced the cupcakes according to the animals; chocolate for my lovely brown horses, perky pink for the pigs, wooly white for the sheep and cows and cheeky yellow for the chickens.

Old MacDonald has nothing on these Cupcakes!

These cute animals were quite happy to join my Cupcake Farmyard for the day and I am sure they delighted many birthday guests both young and those a little less young.  Thank you for such a fun order Lyn.

Turning 50 in Style!

Lavender & Lace Cupcakes

Wow Jenny you certainly turned 50 with a great amount of style and grace and a gorgeous birthday breakfast celebration shared with family and friends. You looked beautiful and your setting at House Higgo in Northcliff was just perfect to make your day a memorable one.  I loved your theme of Lavender and Lace and when you asked me to do the cupcakes according to this theme these pale pink, light lavender and purple sugar paste roses were so pretty on these Vanilla and Lavender Cupcakes in their dainty lavender cupcake cases.

Not only were you blessed with gorgeous weather, amazing family and friends but we were treated to a delicious breakfast by the very gracious staff of House Higgo.  I loved your colour scheme and the most beautiful flower arrangements that your talented mom made for you were perfect on the pretty lace table centres.  You have always been such a caring and thoughtful friend and it was very clear what an amazing friend you are to all those who shared your birthday with you. It was a privilege for me to share in such a special celebration with you.
