Cupcake Sampler

I had a potential client interested in me providing their wedding cake and cupcakes. So I baked up several different varieties for her and her fiance to try.

I made vanilla cupcakes with brown sugar buttercream,

 and pumpkin spice cupcakes with cream cheese frosting,

and red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting,

and chocolate cupcakes with salted caramel buttercream,

and finally, apple spice cupcakes with salted caramel buttercream, as well as a few apple spice cupcakes with brown sugar buttercream.

They loved the cupcakes, especially the apple spice cupcakes with the salted caramel buttercream, and had to decide which ones they wanted for their wedding. Needless to say, I'm thrilled that I have the honor of making their wedding cake and cupcakes.

1st Birthday Cake, Smash Cake, and Cupcakes

My first order was for a very dear friend whose son is a couple weeks younger than my son. She asked me to make a cake for her son's party, as well as his smash cake. 

We decided to make a 9" cake for the adults, a 4" smash cake for her son, and cupcakes for the kids. 

The theme of the birthday party was a summer picnic and decorated with primary colors bunting. So my friend requested the cakes be decorated with bunting.

The 9" cake was a gluten- and dairy-free chocolate cake with a vanilla swiss meringue buttercream.

The 4" smash cake was a gluten- and dairy-free vanilla cake with a vanilla swiss meringue buttercream. The cupcakes were both the chocolate and vanilla.

Everyone loved the chocolate cake, saying that it was really good, especially since it was a gluten- and dairy-free cake. There were a few people who said they didn't want any cake and ended up eating a piece because they had to try it, and there were others who went back for a second piece.
