More Valentine's Day Cupcakes

Red Velvet Valentine's Day Cupcakes

  After 2 days of snow. With my girls and husband home. I have been doing a lot of cooking and baking. Yesterday it was beef stew and homemade bread. Today its Red velvet cupcakes.
   The cupcakes are topped with cream cheese frosting and 2 different candy hearts. Dove chocolate pretzel heart valentines and Wilton candy melts made from a mold.
   My daughter Maddy was the one who wanted red velvet cupcakes. In fact she asked for the pink frosting and candy melt hearts. Now she has a choice but she only gets to have one! http://cincyshopper.com/valentine-pretzel-treats/

Happy Valentine's Day!

Snowman Face Cupcakes

Cupcake #3. Sometimes the ideas you have just don't work the way you want them to. So its good to have a plan B. These Snowmen cupcakes are my plan B.

Christmas Cookie Wreath Cupcakes

   Here is cupcake #2. This cupcake is also chocolate. Ernie requested chocolate because these cupcakes are going with him to the dental lab. They needed some Christmas spirit, they are not having a party. I also frosted the cupcakes with Pillsbury Funfetti Holiday Frosting in green. Murray butter cookies dipped in green melting chocolate sprinkled with Christmas sprinkles and M&Ms.

Here they are ready to deliver.

Pretzel Christmas Present Cupcakes

I was beginning to think with the time ticking away, I would not have the chance to make and decorate cupcakes. But I was wrong here is the first of three cupcakes headed for church, work, school and for here at home. The cupcake is chocolate. The frosting is Pillsbury Holiday Funfetti in red. The pretzel present came from this blog.   http://www.kristendukephotography.com/christmas-present-pretzels/ I put my own spin on them as I always do.
