Here where I work, we do a little something something for every one's birthday. You may call it a pot-luck, but we call it a carry-in. Tomato, tamato, potato, patato-you get the idea :) Well, it is my job to coordinate these events with my co-workers in my department. Last Friday we were having one for one of our in house contract sales directors. The theme was set; salads. And the menu was established. What was I bringing? Pasta salad and cupcakes for the birthday boy of course!
White butter cake batter died a festive blue for Easter :)
Pretty polka dot cupcake liners, thank you Hobby Lobby
Yum :)
Pretty and blue inside...color turned out great!
These are totally more Valentine's Day than Easter themed. Woops.
I ended up with lots of batter left over...so, what did I do? Made cute mini cupcakes for us to enjoy at home. Of course!
I was excited about these cupcakes. Wait, I am always excited about cupcakes...anyways, I had a vision. Unfortunately the vision I had in my head did not come to fruition. I stand firm in my belief that I should get an A for effort though. That and the fact that everyone who ate a cupcake raved about how delicious they were. Little did they know that they looked nothing like what I wanted them to look like.
At least they tasted great, right?
Next cupcake and cake adventure is this weekend for Robin's wedding shower. I have new icing tips and everything! I am excited to use all my new stuff and get busy baking/decorating! Happy Wednesday, y'all!

They look great! Did you make your own icing? I'm always in search of a good, smooth icing recipe!
They are precious! If they tasted good is what really counts :) Have a great night! xoxo
