Rose Covered Cupcakes

Just some pretty little cupcakes in honor of Valentine's Day. Read more about these easy fondant flowers.

Little Lollipop Cakes

These little cakes are my new favorite thing to make. I loved making red velvet cake balls, but this is the first time I have tried that recipe with something other than red velvet. The chocolate cake was great and somehow putting them on a lollipop stick made them seem even better. Now, I'm going to have to try more cake combinations. Yikes!

Pretty in pink… and yellow and blue.

These cake plates are so lovely. I've been on the hunt for some like this, but I can't decide what to get. I like them all.

Little Pink & Purple Princess cake

Here's my first cake created with the new Kitchenaid mixer. This little chocolate cake was inspired by my six-year old niece. She did some artwork a while back that I saved. I thought the colors would make a nice pattern. You can see her artwork here.

I better get baking

After years of using a cheap hand mixer, I've finally moved to the big leagues with my brand new Kitchenaid artisan stand mixer. I was totally surprised to get this pink beauty for Christmas. I haven't used it yet, but I can't wait to try it out. I hope it improves my "from scratch" baking.

The cupcake with a lot of heart

My niece and I baked some chocolate fudge cupcakes this weekend. She did a great job decorating hers and I took a few and decorated like this. It may not look perfect, but tasted great.

Red Velvet Cake Balls

Beware… These little cakes are addictive. I have been making them for about a year and my friends that have tried them are addicted too. Check out the recipe.
