Red, White & Blue






It wouldn't be a proper 4th of July if I didn't do some baking.  Baking and cooking is one of my absolute favorite things to do.  I really haven't had time since having a baby, but I decided to make some time since it was a holiday.

I need to take some lessons on cupcake decorating, but until then what I have done will have to work. When I was piping on some of the cupcake frosting the piping bag broke and frosting went EVERYWHERE!  I decided I wasn't going to let the cupcake win so I whipped up some more frosting and tried again.  It still didn't turn out great, but it sure was delicious!

The popcorn cake unfortunately was a flop.  It looked delicious, but the popcorn was all soggy.  Maybe it's because I bought buttered popcorn instead of plain, not sure.

Here are the recipes for the cupcake and popcorn cake.  I probably won't make the popcorn cake again, but I would definitely do the cupcakes again maybe even with different colors (I'm thinking wedding showers/baby showers/halloween, the options are endless)!

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July!

Let Them Eat Cake!

As many of you already know I LOVE to bake.  My friend went to a quaint little country wedding this weekend and shared with me this gorgeous dessert table filled with Smore's pops, Red Velvet Cupcakes, Whoopie Pies and a white wedding cake with homemade strawberry jam filling.  The only thing she forgot was to bring me a sample of each treat, DOH!  Also did I mention that there are over 400 handmade sugar flowers elegantly placed on top of the cupcakes and the cake.  These delicious treats were made as a wedding gift from a friend to the bride.

I am in love with this dessert table, if I could marry it instead of my husband I would have (sorry honey!)



Shout out to Kimberly at Suite Confections for creating these delicious treats!
