Retirement Cupcakes: Spring Flowers

Here are spring flower cupcakes that I made for a retirement party. They are vanilla,chocolate, and strawberry cake....they have vanilla and chocolate frosting....and are covered with decorated fondant!

They were arranged on three cupcake towers...

And on the table! Here is a close up of one of the handpainted tops.

Bridal Shower Polka Dot Cupcakes

These polka dot cupcakes were made for a bridal shower....the colors match the colors of the bridesmaids dresses...Pink and Black...Not only was the fondant pink and black but the cake was tinted to match! They were a real hit!

Here is a special order cake that was made for a "divorce" party. It is made to look like a wedding cake that the groom is pushing the bride off of. In this case it was warranted!

Tinkerbell Cake

Here is a Tinkerbell cake that I made for a little girl named Jackie...I made the pink, purple, and white cake and then added the decorative vines and flowers. Tinkerbell was a toy that I found and it fit the cake perfectly!

Maddy's Summer Fairies

This is a birthday cake that I did for Madison's 6th birthday. She requested a fairy cake after seeing the other fairy cake that I did. I chose to do the background colors in bright summer citrus colors.

Hoe-Down Cake

This cake was made for a 6 year-old's birthday. The theme was a hoe-down so I went with more a farm theme for the cake.

This is a view of the cake from the top. When I arrived at the party to set up I actually put a cupcake with a horse on the top.

Here is a sheep.

This is my personal favorite...a chicken/hen with its eggs.

And of course there were horses...complete with horse-shoes.

Panda-Monium

I found these Panda Cupcakes in the book "Hello Cupcake." Riley picked them out and we decided to give them a try. They came out really cute and they weren't too hard to make.

They were supposed to have Oreo-O's as their ears but the store doesn't carry them anymore so we went with half a mini oreo.

JukeBox Cake

Breezy's Fairy Cake

What more could a five-turning-six-year-old want? This fairy cake was one a big undertaking but it was so worth it. The fairies and bugs are made of fondant. It is funfetti-type cake with vanilla frosting. The entire thing is covered with green-grass fondant and leaves/flowers. Cupcakes were covered with bright purple, pink, and blue fondant to match the fairies. The letters were cut out with cookie cutters.

This is a blue fiary with blond curly hair.

A catapillar and a little blue bug.

A purple fairy

A pink fairy....I think that it was immediately named Breezy

A butterfly and another catapillar.
