Scrub Cupcakes

Here are the Butterfly/Scrub cupcakes that we did a couple weeks ago. They turned out nice. Especially when they were on the cupcake stand. The butterflys are made out of gumpaste then markered in black with the food coloring pens (gabby is the crazy one who did all 50) then with white royal icing dots. The scrubs are out of fondant. Dont ask how long it took. These were for an anestsiologist (sp?) Each scrub had a name tag engraved with Dr. B. They were white cupcakes with lemon curd and cream cheese frosting.

Hi everyone,
I've invited some of my students to post on the blog. Just in case you dont recognize anyone, they are from class.

Here's the final result. Thanks Heather for the advice. I didn't have time to do the piano keys, it probably would have been just the right touch...oh well!

Un-birthday Topsy Turvey

Here is our first topsy turvey. It was a lot of fun to make. Here is the concept and the actual. We ended up making a fourth layer. The teirs are 10", 8", 6" and the cupcake on top is 3". The dark blue bow broke during transportation, so we took the light one in back and swaped them. It ended up looking just fine. It was a Alice in Wonderland inspired Unbirthday Mad Hatter themed party. They wanted the colors to be red, yellow and blue. It looks like a Disney Princess cake. It was about 3 feet tall.

V's Baby Shower Cake

Here's my somewhat pathetic attempt to copy Heather's cake. I loved making the fondant and it turned out great. I just wish I would have flavored it with an oil to give it just a little more flavor. I also messed up on the baseball trying to make it look "dirty". Oh Well. It was fun to make and I was a little pressed for time. V liked it alot. We had lots of fun at the shower talking and eating. Steven was carrying it into the house for me and got a "loud" education about not carrying the cake out in the rain. Grrrrrr! Fun times.

P.S. Thanks Gabby & Heather for putting up with me and guiding me through my first fondant making. I bow to you!
