The Halloween Cupcakes 2

I made these for the annual Weber Family Halloween Party. I made them last year too, and a lot of them were the same or similar.







This one isn't the best picture, it's a brain. It didn't capture the detail very well unfortunately.

The Bat Cake

So this was a lemon buttercream. Very tasty, but when I put the black food coloring in, it reacted with the lemon juice in the frosting and turned green. So we have a green bat :)

The Carter Wedding Cake

The first wedding cake I've ever made :)

The Cookie Cupcakes

I have to give credit where credit is due ... Thank you Rachel for the idea to put cookie dough in my cupcakes. The cupcake decoration is nothing to write home about, but the cupcake itself and the frosting itself is!

OH MY GOODNESS.

The cupcake is a light chocolate flavor stuffed with a chocolate chip cookie. The frosting is a stabilized chocolate whipped cream frosting (Thank you Alton Brown) that is to DIE for.

The Stars and Swirls Cake

Just for fun. Not sure how I feel about the colors.

The Damask Cake

I made this for my cousin's bridal shower. I'll be making her wedding cake in October. This was french vanilla with strawberry cheesecake filling.

The Baptism Cake

I made this cake for my niece's baptism. It's half french vanilla with lemon creme filling and half triple chocolate fudge with chocolate ganache filling.

The Scroll And Flower Cake

Just for fun ... I really need someone to take these off my hands when I do them. I'm sure I've gained 10 pounds in the last few weeks.

The Rose Cupcakes

So I got this idea from "seriouscakes" ... she does a lot of instructional videos on Youtube and has a facebook page and such. She's amazing, you should check her out! :)

The Green Cake

Not sure how big of a fan I am of the color that this turned out, but I like everything else about it.

The Swirl Cake

I made this cake from scratch. I just made it for the fun of it, and I wanted to try out a new design.

The Racecar Cake

This cake was an experience. Let's just say ... I'm still learning. The cakes were chocolate with a ganache filling, and the other was french vanilla with a strawberry cheesecake filling. Well, the walls of frosting holding the filling in were collapsing, and the cake was falling apart. I was lucky it stayed in tact for the party ;)

The Mike Wazowski Cake

My excuse for this cake is it was freehand (I'm not the best artist) from a picture on my phone.

The Plane Cake

I'm still having issues getting smooth icing without picking up any cake. I think I'm just doing it too thick.

The Mickey Mouse Cake

My cousin's little boy's first birthday. The Mickey part comes off to be Michael's smash cake.

The Butterfly Cupcakes

I made these for a girls' night. The butterflies are chocolate chips and candy melts.

The Practice Rose Cake

The SoCute Cake

We did a "SoCute! Boutique" party, so I made a cake with their logo.

The Halloween Cupcakes

These were cupcakes I made for the annual Halloween Party.

The Spider Cake

My nephew's birthday is right around Halloween, so we made him a spider cake for his birthday. It was chocolate cake and yellow cake, and then I just died the yellow cake orange. It's just frosting filling.

The Volcano Cake

This was my son's first birthday cake. His name is Tayson Rex (T-Rex). The T-Rex's are suckers that I made and then the cake is chocolate with oreo cheesecake filling.

The Toothless Wonder Cake

A birthday cake for my sister in law and brother in law. He had to get implants for his front two teeth, so he didn't have any front teeth for a while. She called him "toothless wonder" so we put it on their cake :)

This is the homemade fondant again. It got wet when it sat in her fridge overnight. Not quite sure why.

The Ryah Cakes

These were for my cousin's daughter's first birthday. On the "1" cake it was homemade fondant - tasted better, but harder to use. Probably not worth the effort. The present cake was her "smash" cake.

The Candy Melt Cupcakes

I decided to try using candy melts for the decorations. I learned some things and next time will be better. They turned out ok though.

The Pepperdine Cake

My cousin got a full ride to Pepperdine on a basketball scholarship. I used a different kind of buttercream that I had never used before. I don't think I'll use it again. I didn't like the look of it.

The Football Cake

Just Because
