Banana crumb muffins

Mmmmm. Yes please, this is what I want for breakfast! Homemade banana crumb (no walnuts, yuck!) muffins. Heat these up with some butter and they are so good. I need to make some more soon!

 

This is no cupcake..

Just figured I'd post a pic of my homemade Mac'n Cheese! Yummy! That's right folks, I don't just bake.

 

Prom Cupcakes for my sisters!

My two beautiful younger sisters had there prom in May. I decided to surprise them with some mini cupcakes. I colored the frosting to match their dresses! Also, added some fun sprinkles. They came out so cute and really tasty! Everyone seems to like the minis. They were my chocolate cupcake with a vanilla butter cream. 



 

It's been too long!

Welcome back, Self. The last time I updated my blog was in May! I haven't been busy or anything trying to keep up with my now, almost 10 month old daughter. She's hard work! But I wouldn't trade motherhood for anything. It's so rewarding. :) While I've been absent, we've brought Scarlett on her first trip to the beach (twice) and to the river. Needless to say, she LOVES the water! Here are a couple of pictures from out adventures. Then I'll get back to cupcakes......I promise!

Almond Joy Cupcakes. Yum!

I made these and everyone loved them. Chocolate cupcakes filled with coconut filling (made from coconut, sweetened condensed milk and powdered sugar) and Almond butter cream icing.


 

Bridal Shower cupcakes

This is the first batch of cupcakes I have done for an actual client (my cousin!) She wanted cupcakes for her friend's bridal shower. She bought cute white liners and blue sugar flowers and sent them my way. I made chocolate cupcakes with white butter cream icing. Unfortunately, I got done at 10pm and the lighting in my kitchen is the worst, so the pictures don't do these cupcakes any justice. They look yellowish, but were pure white.

 I received great feedback, which is always good!  I can't wait to do my next order.

Easter Cupcakes!

Time to catch up! Life has been busy lately with my sweet 8 month old girl. So for Easter, my sister made the lemon cupcakes, so I had to figure out something else to do. My Mom suggested carrot cake cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. They came out so good! I'm not one to like pieces of stuff in my cake or yogurt or anything, it gives my the willies! But, these are an exception for me! The fresh grated carrot and crushed pineapple was so good!!
