Little Ladybugs

Chocolate cupcakes-- with royal Icing blossoms, buttercream icing for grass and Sugar cookie Lady-bugs.. Arnt they Cute?!

It all Started with a little mini-lady bug Sugar cookies.........

Then they started to come to life with some red buttercream icing....

Did some piping with tip # 23, doesnt quite look like much yet, sort of looks like green hair,

Icing was colored with (Wilton icing color...leaf green color) , still doesnt look like much yet... do you know what it is going to be?

Some wild grass...for the Lady bugs to hang out on.

And some more..... Some Spring Blossom candies made of Royal icing...yum! What to do with the Flowers? I thought I'd turn them into lolipop flowers and stick them in the cupcakes. In order to do that...some chocolate wafers had to be melted as glue.
Melt, melt, melting.....
And stick them!


And Voila!

You Are My Sunshine...


You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.
You make me happy, when skies are grey.
You never know dear, how much I love you,
please don't take my sunshine away!

This is a song I have sang to my girls since the day they were born. For sure a song that will be glued to my memory forever.





Nemo Cupcakes


here's N-E-M-O...and his friends.

If your wondering why some of them say Mia? That's because its for a little girls birthday party!I hope little Mia likes them.

Also I am a huge Ellen fan..So of course I had to put Dory in there in honor of Ellen.

Everything on these cupcakes (Chocolate Fudge by the way) and all the details you see here is 100% edible. All the icing is made of Marshmallow Fondant and just in case at the party if they don't like the taste of fondant then I put a layer of Vanilla Butter cream icing. But seriously this fondant icing is Very good!




Arn't these little guys so cute? Seriously how could you eat them, with them looking at you with those eyes?! LOL
