Mini Hamburgers and Chocolate Cupcakes

   Today is labor Day its the last hurrah of summer. When I was growing up that meant that school  started the coming Wednesday. For my kids they have already started the new school year. Its been a week already and we are back to the daily routine of packing lunches, homework, and Mom as the taxi. But today we have one last day to sleep in and then go have some fun with friends at the annual Labor day picnic.
  



 The idea for the mini hamburgers came from this blog. http://www.munchkinmunchies.com/2011/06/burger-bites-cookies.html . I used York Peppermint Patties the mini ones for the burgers and red and yellow melted candy melts for the mustard and ketchup.

Fortune Cookie Cupcakes

    The fortune inside my Fortune Cookie said "There will be cupcakes in your future". Well of course there are cupcakes in my future, this was not hard to see I love cupcakes!!!! These cupcakes are special not only do they tell the future they have 2cups of sherbet in them. Here is the recipe http://thenymelrosefamily.com/2014/07/rainbow-sherbet-cupcakes.html/2 for the frosting I used  Pillsbury Creamy Supreme Orangesicle, Key lime and Pink Lemonade frosting one can of each. Swirled together on top of the cupcake with silver dragees  and a candy melt dipped fortune cookie.

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.
