Cake Stand Love! (or Cupcake Stand)

   I love rummaging around thrift and second hand stores. This summer I have found 2 glass cake plates for under 7$ each a silver one for 6$ and this wire one at World Market. I am still on the look out for a vintage white or green milk glass cake stand and a cranberry glass cake stand (cupcakes).

Maryland Crab Cupcakes

   Its been weeks since I have posted any new cupcakes, I just did not have an opportunity to make cupcakes. Tonight we had the Sister Missionaries from our church for dinner. For dessert I made pink lemonade cupcakes with an Oreo decorated like a crab. I found the idea here http://www.madetobeamomma.com/2014/06/oreo-crabs.html.

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.
