Cupcakes!

While on our girl's trip last month, we (Bethany, Betsy, my mom and I) came across a cupcake book that we HAD to get. We decided to start a cupcakery club and surprise our family members, on their birthdays, with special cupcakes.

We picked a bad month to start.

There are 4 birthdays in August, all within the space of 11 days.

I'm a little tired of cupcakes :)

Just a disclaimer - we're kind of new at this and hope that with lots of practice the cupcakes will actually look like they do in the book!

First up we have Paul's penquins and glaciers.


Next up, David's lions (he's a certifiable Leo).


Followed by Dad's sailboats (these were done 100% by Bethany).


Finally, Bethany's corn-on-the-cob (no that isn't REAL pepper, it's black sugar crystals).

What great cupcakes! I don't suppose those 3 cupcakes that make the corn on the cob are skewered together, are they. It would be fun to try to eat them while only holding on to each end. A PARTY GAME! EAT THE CORNEY CUPCAKES! NO HANDS ALLOWED!
