I've had a crazy few days of birthday orders this week! This is what came about from all the running around and hard work in the kitchen!
Hedgehog cupcakes! These spiky little babes are made up of a buttermilk-spice cake, raspberry preserves, cocoa cream cheese frosting & cinnamon toasted almonds :) Yum!
Also...
Another giant cupcake order came in! This one is Chocolate with Fudge Filling and a piped Vanilla Frosting rose. It's surrounded by 24 decorated chocolate covered strawberries & has a chocolate plaque with a friendly birthday message. This one was a fun project :)
So I've been experiencing a lot with a southern red velvet cake recipe. It's delicious, really. The cake has a light but buttery crumb and is perfect with a vanilla cream cheese frosting. You may have checked out my earlier velvet cake confections in the Christmas post and I'm still going strong, whipping up velvet cakes left & right! So here's a peak at yesterday's big bake: a RAINBOW velvet birthday cake!
Enjoy the pictures :)
Here's to happy baking! And a happy birthday to Meghan, too!
