Not a whole lot of baking...

I've only been baking here and there, not as much as I want to. That's what happens when you have a baby... Anyway, I wanted to blog to display some stuff that I have done. 

Cake Pops
They were/are all the rage... I had started and it came to be too much work.  I'm also not as creative as my brother is, so I'm leaning towards leaving the cake pop orders to him.  Below are just a few that I've done. I know I've seen Starbucks had some cake pops but they are plain. If you want to place and order, let me know.

 These are part of the mardi gras cake pops that I made.  I did a variety of colors, and sprinkled them with edible glitter.

 These piggy pops look mean, but they are sweet. When you bite in, it was red velvet.

 These were easy yet hard to make.  Forming the head wasn't bad, it was putting on those darn whiskers.  Wilton edible markers are not the best for these.

 I had extra cake balls, and these are Sam's creations.  He wanted to mix as many colors as possible.

Being a UMD alum, I'm not really a VT fan, but this was a request from, what I've been told, a famous football player's cousin... this was the hardest; cutting the face part and hand piping the letters and outline.


Melody's First Bday
I really wanted to do it up for Melody's 1st bday, so I made my melody cake pops (and some plain red ones) and her bday cake.  Funny, I didn't have the storage space in my fridge for the huge cake, but luckily it was winter time so...  

Cupcakes
This is what I do the most - cupcakes.  Usually my clients are co-workers, so it's easier to hand out cupcakes than to get a knife and cut a cake.

 Cinnamon swirl cupcakes with cream cheese icing

Boston Cream cupcakes

I also made orange creamcicle cupcakes but didn't take a pic of them. DARN!
