“Team Jacob” Cupcakes
A friend’s 8-year-old daughter asked for a “Jacob” cake. For Kaylee, I could have gone all abstract with bloodly feathers, apples, and stacks of books. For a bunch of second graders, I had to be a little more inventive. So, here’s what I came up with:
Shamrock Cupcakes
These cupcakes are so much fun for the kids to make for St. Patrick’s Day. They’ll look festive decorating any holiday spread you put together for this festive and green day.
Dark Chocolate Filling
This filling is a perfect accompaniment to any cake you’ll frost with Chocolate Buttercream Frosting.
Valentine’s Day Treats for School
These treats were made for Kaylee’s 4th grade teachers and school administrators — so, 3 years ago. They weren’t designed to offer any kind of tutorial in how to do them, so I apologize for that, but they give you an idea of how easy it is to put together something personal, something special for those people in your life whom you want to gift with Valentines.
Guest Post: Natalee’s Ben Franklin Birthday Cupcakes
I tried to think of ways to make a glass armonica, a furnace, reaching claw, and a flexible urinary catheter. I found that these tutorials although might prove amusing to me and to those who read this would not prove useful to most people performing cupcakery. Somehow a ‘congrats on passing the kidney stone’ cupcake just didn’t feel quite right. I did feel however the kite could easily be used for a spring party or a birthday party and the glasses could be a fun addition to an ‘over the hill’ party. Hope I haven’t embarrassed myself too much and I do hope that I get to show off more complicated cupcakery in the future, but these were fun, educational, and hey darn tasty too!
Chocolaty Reindeer Cupcakes
Make a batch of Chocolate Buttercream Frosting. Frost your cupcakes. Make sure your assistant doesn’t get any on his white turtleneck (even though it appears that mine got some on his chin.)
Magical Mascarpone Cheese Frosting
I created this recipe when I went to make cream cheese frosting and discovered that I was out. It was absolutely delicious and will be my first choice above cream cheese from now on. Perfect for your red velvet cakes, spice cakes, applesauce cakes.
