Remember these? Well they were included in Bakerella’s latest montage of cupcake pops from around the world. My pops are featured for about 2 seconds, 2/3 of the way through the long montage, but Bakerella called me (and everyone else featured) a pop star! It’s fun to see what everyone has done with her clever [...]
The Great Pumpkin Pumpkin Cake
November 18, 2008 by 15 Comments
I had a couple of pumpkin-themed parties this weekend to tell you about. Remember the pumpkin baby shower ideas I shared here? Well, this is the cake I ended up making for the shower. It was a hit, so I thought I would share in case, you are in the market for something besides pumpkin [...]

Birthdays and babies happen through out the year, so how do you handle one of those events when so many holiday decorations and festivities have over taken your house? One way is to use the seasonal theme for your party. I am helping with a baby shower for my sister-in-law, and we decided to go [...]

October 21, 2008 by 28 Comments
We had a cupcake-themed birthday party for my baby girl on Saturday. Here are the details as promised. INVITATION: I have been trying to do most of my designing digitally lately, but then add an element by hand that gives more of a handmade feel. This entire invitation is digital, except for the cupcake liner [...]

The moon is made of cake (birthday cake!)

My computer time seems to be coming in smaller chunks lately, so I am going to spread the coverage of the rocket/space ship/astronaut birthday, over a few, more manageable posts. This is a strong contender for the easiest cake I’ve ever made. I’ve used this Wilton sports ball pan for all kinds of cakes–except any [...]
Wii love to party!
August 25, 2008 by 1 Comment
I think we are probably the only family in the country who doesn’t own a Wii. Just because that is a fact that probably won’t be changing anytime in the near future, doesn’t mean that I don’t think a Wii-themed party would be lots of fun. My sister, Trina, just threw an Olympics/Wii-themed party for [...]
Trenton’s Truck Birthday
August 16, 2008 by 20 Comments
As I am starting to get ready for my son’s big astronaut party, I thought it would be fun to share some of what we did last year for his 3rd b-day…A construction/truck party. Going completely against my nature, I bought invitations this time. This was only because the invitation was the exact concept I [...]

I love cute birthday cakes–they can really become the focal point of a party, so I have a couple more I’ve been wanting to share. This first one was made by Laura at Brilliant Blossoms (she’s pretty crazy about a lot of different things, like me!) for our cousins, Kaj and Kade and their awesome [...]

I had to post these cool Lego cupcakes for all of my Lego-obsessed nephews and their (Lego-obsessed Dads) one of them just had a Lego birthday, I think. They are from Hello Naomi. Look at all of her great cupcakes here. Including these robot cupcakes… which go perfectly with this great robot party from the [...]
