Ladybug Birthday cake and Smash Cake


This was so fun to make. It was for a sweet girl's 1st birthday. The large cake was for all the guest and she had her own smash cake. Ladybugs, flowers, white circles, and leaves were made from fondant. The rest is buttercream.


Easter Cookies


 Use your favorite sugar cookie recipe, then a thin, but firm setting frosting to decorate your cookies. Kids LOVE to help with this!

Hydrangea Cupcakes


Valentine Cupcakes

Fill cupcake liners with 1/2 the batter, put in candy of choice, cover candy with more batter, bake.


Andes Mint

Chocolate Covered Cherry

Turtle


Fall & Halloween Cupcakes



Use pumpkin or maple cupcake recipe as your base. 






M&Ms, kit kate, and shredded wheat make the cutest scarecrow.



Lay out a piece of wax paper, then melt some chocolate chips and put in a parchment bag. Snip a very small amount off the end, then pipe a tree onto the wax paper. Once it cools, it will become hard and you can handle it briefly to put in your cupcake. I made a slit on the top of the cupcake to allow for easier insertion. 


Toy Story Birthday

Cupcakes and Pinata


These cupcakes were so simple. Use multiple different frostings to make the party bright. There are many free printables online to find cupcake toppers. Cut out, glue to card stock, cut out again, and use scotch tape to attach to a sucker stick.
