A Twist of Spring!

Sep26

Another spring order of birthday cupcakes gave me free reign to experiment with a different sugar paste flower. I chose an orange and lime green colour combination and then made these twisted orange flowers from 4 circles which I pinched in and folded in on themselves to make this funky flower. I added orange roses and rolled green sugar paste roses to the other cupcakes with their matching sugar pearls. These were the perfect cupcakes to photograph on my beautiful tray, a birthday present from Tanya and the quirky Cupcake traycloth, a gift from Lisa (TQO).

Pink & Lavender Roses to Welcome a Baby Girl!

Sep25

For her baby-shower, Georgina chose these cupcakes with simple pink and lavender sugar paste roses on them. I made delicious vanilla and white chocolate cupcakes and then decorated them with a selection of roses and rolled roses in pinks and lavenders and matching sugar pearls.

Wishing you all the best Georgina with your baby girl and may she be a blessing and a joy to you and all your family.

Spring Flower Cupcakes

With the deep winter skies slowly turning to a bright blue, the birds practising their summer chorus and the temperature starting to warm up in Johannesburg, we can officially say that spring has arrived. I am delighted to pack away my winter woollies and bring out my bright colourful summer clothes as spring announces to us that finally the warmer weather is here. With the cheerful pastel hues of spring, comes a great excuse to celebrate, and here are some of my Spring Flower Cupcakes to celebrate a special birthday earlier this month.

Ladybird Cupcakes

I couldn’t resist these tiny sugar paste ladybirds from Jodees for cupcakes I made for Paige’s birthday celebration with her friends. Small elegant ladybirds were perfect for a petite young lady. Hope you had fun Paige!
