Basic Flower


I made these to send to Joe's work in honor of Maci's birthday but shared them with Sara instead. :) She was hosting a baby shower the day after hosting Maci's b-day party so it was the least I could do.
So this post is a little disorganized. It's been a while since I posted anything and I forgot that you have to uploade the pictures in reverse order. And I can't seem to move them around once they're uploaded. So there you go.



I used a basic vanilla cake recipe with vanilla frosting from Martha's cupcake book.



I saw this idea in a Martha book. She uses a little ice cream scoop to top her cupcakes then smooshes down the frosting with the back of the scoop. That way you are assured plenty of frosting.
It actually worked pretty well but I wonder if this technique is best used with a big scoop for a lot of frosting.

So many cupcakes, so little time . . .


Each cupcake received a little pink flower and polka dotted liner.


Here they are, ready for travel.
