Fondant Bees


My friend Gabby came over and helped me with these super cute bees for my cake on Tuesday. I love how they turned out.

Enrichment Night



Here's the cake and cupcakes I did for enrichment night. The heel on the shoe looks weird because I dried it on a plate and the surface of the cake was no as even. OH WELL! I'm not obsessing about it or anything. You know me, it's not bothering me one bit. (Yah right!)
Here's the little shoe that I got for you beth, heather do you want one too?

Cupcake...Cake






My friend had me replicate this birthday decoration into a cake and cupcakes. It was actually way fun. I bought the cupcake cake pan from Wilton and it's pretty cool. I was even going to put dark purple fondant swirls on the buttercream but when I went to look for the dark purple fondant that I had made, I only found blue. The purple turned blue on the Fondex! Weird. I LOVE the candle on top. I actually make giant cupcakes for my friends b-day's now because it's so easy. I always make a cute candle topper. They are my new favorite thing right now.
