Nightmare Before Christmas Inspired

One of my loyal customers is in town and needed some red velvet cupcakes for her sister in-law's graduation. Well she loves Nightmare Before Christmas so Jo thought it would be a great idea to have them decorated in that theme.

Jo thank you for being such a loyal customer when you are in in the Phoenix area ;) 

I am hoping that she loves her cupcakes!  

Monogramed red velvet cupcakes

I had the pleasure of making some red velvet cupcakes topped with cream cheese, and last minute request to add some chocolate hearts and monogram half of them with the letter A. I had a great time and I am glad that the birthday girl enjoyed her treats.

Oscar thank you for ordering I really appreciate your business!

NY Yankee cupcakes/ Red Velvet cupcakes

Sunday I woke up thinking I needed to pay tribute to the NY Yankees. I had some time before the game started to whip up some fantastic red velvet cupcakes filled with vanilla pudding, and topped with cream cheese frosting. I always speed through things due to the fact that I have a 10 month old baby who is attached to my hip the majority of the time. Here is the picture of the cupcakes:

This is what the rest of them looked like:

I also went to my 2nd class and we are only allotted 30 minutes to decorate our cakes and this is what I did. Originally the cake was supposed to be plain white, but a girl bumped into me and pink pixie dust spilled onto my cake. I should have taken more pictures of the side of my cake. There were hearts around the cake too! There were some decorations towards the bottom of the cake but didnt like the way they looked so I took them off.

Halloween treats

So I finally had some down time away from work, at home taking care of my daughter and made the monster logo cupcake. I think it turned out pretty good! So good that one of my friends from high school saw the post on my Facebook page and said that she was going to show it to the Monster rep at her event last night!!! Thanks Cynthia!!

Now Cindy is the one who asked me to make the Monster logo cupcake for her son. She only asked for 1 cupcake but I thought hmm you need more than 1, so I decided to make her 2 jumbo cupcakes since she has been waiting so patiently!

Here are the treats  that Shannon asked me to whip up for her party that she had this past Saturday:

Tis the season for the Halloween goodies! Had some time to play around and thought I would try to make a ghost and this is what I came up with:

There will be more to come! I started my cake decorating classes on Saturday and it was very fun! We got to see the instructor decorate a cake in about less than 10 minutes! Our home work was to bake a cake and bring it in frosted to our next class. I also need to whip up thick, meduim, and thin consistency frostings so that I can decorate my cake in class!!!
