Delicious Mounds/Almond Joy Cupcakes

These cupcakes are definitely at the top of my favorite list! These cupcakes are modeled after an Almond Joy bar, but without the almonds so they are a cross between an Almond Joy and a Mounds bar. They are amazingly delicious. 


I made chocolate cupcakes, filled them with a coconut cream filling and dipped them, not once but TWICE, in chocolate ganache. My mouth is watering just thinking about them... And the pictures don't even do them justice. :)

Carnival 1st Birthday Party

I was blessed to do birthday cupcakes for the daughter of my best friend. It was her first birthday and she was having a Carnival theme. I was asked to do Popcorn, Soft Serve Swirl, and Cotton Candy Cupcakes. They were so fun to make!


Here are some pictures!

Phineas and Ferb

This past week I had a special request from Idaho for some cupcake toppers. My friend's son was turning 2 and he LOVES Phineas and Ferb, so of course I had to do it. I did a couple dozen fondant toppers of his favorite character Perry the Platypus, and sent them on their way to get there for his birthday party.
My sister, and favorite business partner, made the cupcakes for them to go on. She did chocolate cupcakes with a caramel filling and peanut butter frosting... Amazing! I think these turned out perfect for his party. Thanks for the help on the other end Michelle!

Winnie the Pooh Baby Shower

This weekend I made a baby shower cake with a Winnie the Pooh theme. I was able to make a two tiered cake into a scene out of the cartoon. Grass, flowers, clouds, bees, and Winnie the Pooh's red balloon! Let's not forget about Pooh and his honey pot. :)
To top it off, the mom to be wanted a homemade vanilla cake with a fresh strawberry filling. Delicious! I wish I were at the baby shower to eat the cake with them! 



Here are a couple pictures of the final product!

Wedding Cakes, Wedding Cakes, Wedding Cakes!

Just a quick post to show you some pictures of the recent wedding cakes that I have made. Hope you are having a great day!




Carrot Cake Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting

This week was my mother in law's birthday and every year she requests the same thing... my homemade carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. This year my in laws went camping for her birthday so a full cake seemed to be a little too much to take, so I opted to turn them into cupcakes And they made the BEST cupcakes! This is definitely the best carrot cake recipe I have ever made, or tried for that matter. It has shredded carrots, crushed pineapple and walnut pieces in it to give it a decadent texture. I'd love to give you the recipe, but you will just have to take my word for it and order some from me!
