Ghosts of Cupcake Past

Here are some of my past creations. I can't take all the credit however... I bought the book Hello Cupcake, and have used many of their recipes. I definitely recommend this book! It is a great resource that shows that you don't need all the fancy pastry bags & tips to create great cupcakes.

Caterpillar (for baby's first Birthday) and a slice of Kiwi fruit

Cupcake Tower


Owls & Acorns


Corn-on-the-Cob with "butter & salt"!




Tennis balls & rackets



(note the casualty from transport!)
Next up- Garden Cupcakes














Popcorn mini-cupcakes (realized almost too late that I hadn't taken a photo. I had donated these to a bakesale & took the pic while they were out on the table to be sold!)


Sunflower cupcakes (with ladybugs!)





From above, the Owls, Acorns, Corn-on-the-Cob, Popcorn, Garden & Sunflower cupakes were all based on recipes from the Hello, Cupcake book. (See link above.) If you're curious on any of the cupcakes you've seen above, leave me a comment/question.
Thanks for looking!

  2. I should hire you. My faves are the 4th of July, corn on the cob, and the veggie garden ones. Sunflowers are so cute too!
