Dinosaur Baby Shower Treats

These dino-mite treats were really fun to make.  They're for a baby shower with a dinosaur theme.  Since the baby mama hasn't been able to drink, I made her some margarita and golden champagne cupcakes because cupcakes are the next best thing to an intoxicating cocktail, right?

I made these cupcakes for a friend of a friend's girls' weekend bowling party.  They are cookies and cream cupcakes with pink vanilla butter cream frosting.  The bowling balls and personalized bowling shirt for the birthday girl are made with fondant and covered with pearl dust for a bit of glittery fun.  The little bowling pins are just decor.

Hello Kitty Birthday Cake



This was such a fun cake!  I made it for my daughter's best friend for her 5th birthday.  She really loves Hello Kitty and her favorite colors are red and yellow, so that was my inspiration for the cake's theme and colors. She also made a special request for a strawberry, banana, chocolate cake ... in the end we settled for a strawberry layer on top and red velvet layer on the bottom with a sweet butter cream frosting.  Happy 5th Birthday, Ava!
