Another Quick Cupcake Request

Emma-Lea sent me a text the other day and asked me if I could make some cupcakes for a school party. So I went and look in my Cupcake pantry which is a collection of cupcake ingredients, frosting, candy, sprinkles and cupcake liners. This is what I came up with a chocolate cupcake http://www.hellmanns.com/recipes/detail/35904/1/chocolate-mayonnaise-cake an orange butter cream frosting, chocolate jimmies ( I'm from New England and we call chocolate sprinkles "Jimmies") and Brach's Mandarin Orange Slices dipped in chocolate.

Maddy's 10th Birthday Cupcakes

  I can't believe my baby is 10 years old! My how time flies. Maddy wanted strawberry cupcakes and pink frosting. I found these cookie purses on http://www.sheknows.com/food-and-recipes/articles/1035701/how-to-make-cookie-purses they were perfect for my budding fashion designer.

Guest Cupcake Blogger Douglas Irey

   Douglas is my 11 year old Nephew from Massachusetts. Douglas made these cupcakes for a family get together on Easter. He planned and prepared for weeks to make sure these cupcakes came out just the way he wanted them too. That young man has some mad skills. I think his cupcakes are not just cute but fantasticly awesome! Great Job Douglas!

  My friend Emily makes these bird's nests with her family every year at Easter. I thought they would be cute on top of a cupcake. Emily also gave me this Ferris Wheel cupcake stand as a birthday gift. She is a wonderful person and a great friend!    Happy Easter!

Sunday Breakfast

   Making a Sunday breakfast for my family doesn't happen that often. We usually have to be at church by 8:30 am. But not this past Sunday, once every six months we get to watch it on TV. I planned a great breakfast cheesy scrambled eggs, thick cut bacon, orange juice and Breakfast Bundt Cake. The cake has blue berries, maple syrup and bacon all my favorites. Here is where I found the recipe. http://www.yourcupofcake.com/2014/04/breakfast-bundt-cake.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+YourCupOfCake+%28Your+Cup+of+Cake%29       This is my version.
