No, seriously, I do. I LOVE cake, you really have no idea how much....

Welcome to my new blog. I should let you know that my passion for cake began in the winter of 2006 after the birth of my second son. I found a cake that I love and then ate it every day....EVERY day...I kid you not! From there I began looking at cakes in whole new way and found that I really appreciate a good cake. I have recently started a cake decorating course and hope one day to be the maker of my own delicious cakes; to make them not only for myself but for others to enjoy too (yes! I have finally decided to share!!). Follow me in my journey from cake connoisseur to cake decorator!! Enjoy...I know I will!!

Cuppycakes for baby bean!

 
Today is Ava's 6th birthday!! She decided ages ago that she wants a "cupcake cake" for her birthday and listening to her try to describe it to me was priceless. Thankfully I already knew what she was talking about (cupcake tear-away cake). In anticipation of a day of baking the day before her party I stopped by Michaels to look for some supplies and I found some fun things!!!
 
First, I decided that on her actual birthday, today, it would be fun for her to bring in some mini-cupcakes for her classmates in the daycare as well as her JK/SK class. While shopping I came across these must haves:
 



A teeny baby muffin/cupcake tin. It is SO cute!!! And I was super excited to find an attachment for my icing bags that I can use to fill the cupcake cups..it makes filling them SO much easier!! I loved using it, way less mess!

Here we have the teeny baby cupcakes. I love how tiny they are. Small things amuse me.


Basic icing job on the cuppycakes and the kids added the sprinkles. Ava did a combination of hearts, flowers, butterflies and Oliver stuck with the confetti circles. They did a great job!!


I dropped them off for the kids at school this morning and won't find out till end of day how they were. They looked and smelled yummy!
