Cake Pop People- Ian edition

When my friend Chuck left the office I work at to work somewhere else, I tried to think of a good send off and what is better than to be immortalized as your very own cake pop!!!  I can not find any pictures of Chuck as a cake pop- I will search high and low for you though!  But it became a semi-tradition.  Here are pictures of Ian Cake pops.  The side by side is the best and please make sure to note the diamond earring on real life Ian and Cake pop Ian. (special silver sprinkle)- Peace- Megs

Cake Pop Creatures

Since cake pops have become popular they started making sprinkle eyes and wow they are magical!!!  It makes little creatures so much easier!  Bakerella is an inspiration.  She started it all www.bakerella.com

Easter Egg Cake

This was one of the funnest cakes thus far!! I was so cheap that I refused to buy an egg shaped baking pan- so instead I made two 8" x 8" cakes.  I stacked them and froze them.  Once they are froze it is super easy to shape into an oval!!  I made sure to learn from the baptism cake and make the fondant thicker.  Thicker fondant helps hide all the imperfections of the cake!!-Luv Meg

Before-After

Fondant shaped feet and pretzel rods!

The close up!-sort of reminds me of the wicked witch's
feet when the house fell on her!

Poor lil fella!  It was bound to happen!

Who Doesn't Love a Good Cake Topper

My sweet husband has gotten me a new cake stand! Its fits a mini cake or one cupcake!! But that's what I love!  It's from the Martha Stewart Collection at Macy's.

Baptism Update

I could not help myself with the powdered white donuts-
they matched my theme and when else do
you get to buy 4 boxes of the delicious treat

Blue Fondant- Easy to cute

Carissa! took the time to shape a cross with individual sprinkles!
Martha would be proud!

Because I threw my back out the day of my son's Baptism I was not on top of my photography!!!  But alas... my good friend Maria took photos of the great cupcakes my friends Carissa and Alexandra helped make (in line with the color theme of course because they are as OCD about party designs as I am!)

Some German Chocolate

Some German Chocolate for a German friend at work!

I have learned to fill my cupcakes to the top cause I like them to look like they are overflowing.  For years the box has said fill cupcake 3/4 full- but I have thrown caution to the wind and filled them to the very top and BAKED!!  I have some photographers in my office- great pics huh? - Happy Thursday -MEG
