So, let's talk some more about cupcakes. Remember that baking post from this weekend? These are the end result: Pink and turquoise cupcakes with red accents, decorated with the helpful assistance of Mary Victoria, sis-in-law-extraordinaire. They turned out EXACTLY as I had hoped they would, and once again fulfilled my need to make pretty little cupcake-works-of-art. They tasted amazing, too!

Can you believe it? All my cupcake dreams have been validated by my favorite cupcake website! I was scrolling through the site during a 3 a.m. baby feeding, and my half-asleep eyes lighted on that picture and I literally had to shake myself to see if I was dreaming... How cool!! I had uploaded my pretty cupcake pictures to Flickr, including to a couple of cupcake groups, and they noticed them among several dozen other cupcake pictures that day. So. I am tickled. I am delighted with my new hobby. Come on over and we'll make another batch. What color shall they be this time?

ReplyDeleteThis is so awesome. You are the coolest! Excellent job. The first thing I thought when I saw those was, "She could sell those." You rock. Wish I could taste their deliciousness.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cupcakes, of course they were featured. I just wish I could come over and help make (and eat) some of those fabulous pieces of art.
ReplyDeletethe turquiose frosting is BEAUTIFUL! What are the hearts made of that are sticking up? Paper? red chocolate?
ReplyDeleteI love your new little hobbie (obsession) :) so cute! And you seem to be great at it! And as for the letter, I have my interview next wends. and I've got two weeks from then to get it in. So three weeks? I hope thats alright... Anyway, creative minds was today, We had a blast, It makes my week. But everyone was extremely excited to hear about you coming back (even if you'd probably rather stay with noah)! Well, I'll let you enjoy your precious time with baby...See ya
ReplyDeletei almost bought one of those cupcake holder things today. just because i wanted to make me some cupcakes.....
ReplyDeleteYou make me proud...you're like the Keebler sister. Now where is MY cupcake?
ReplyDeleteOMGosh! You have to quit posting pictures of those delicious (and beautiful) looking things! I'm dieing for a cupcake (or 2) here.
ReplyDeleteReading this really made me want to eat the computer. looking at the picture, I longed for the perfectness of a cupcake. Sadly, in observance of lent (just because I like the concept) I am giving up deserts and sweets...no cupcake for me:(
ReplyDeleteP.S. I love you for commenting on my blog! It makes me happy!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'm learning I should NOT check your blog when I'm hungry! :) Seriously, those look amazing. You and Mary should open a little shop and make cupcakes and cookies! Wouldn't that just be a dream come true? I seriously can picture it now. Yum!
ReplyDeleteElsie loves your cupcakes! Making (and eating) them is a favorite of hers. We got her the book Pinkalicious for her birthday recently...you'd enjoy it! Anyway, I need to know where you got your cupcake caddy...the one I have is only for a single layer, and I'm loving the double decker!
ReplyDeleteThose cupcakes are beautiful! You did a fantabulous job in cooking/decorating/photographing. It simply makes my mouth water. ^_^. Jewlia gave me this blogger thing to get in contact with you and I thought I would drop by to say Hi and that we really miss your amazingness! (Also, Noah has the most PRECIOUS eyes. He is so beautiful and I saw those videos you made on a Noah-personalized page...you guys love him so much. It's just so cute.!.)
ReplyDeleteWow... not only are they beautiful, but you can yell you had fun - yet another outlet for your creativity :-)
ReplyDeleteI think some of my "fun money" needs to go to cake decorating supplies :-) Meanwhile, I wish I was close to help you with your new cupcake obsession (both making and eating)
And congrats on getting noticed on your cupcake guru site.
Love you
Congrats on being on your favorite Cupcake site! That is really impressive! Now I'm craving some good cupcakes...mmmmm.
