Easter Cupcakes




To celebrate Easter, I made some Easter inspired cupcakes. I made carrot cake cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. The cupcakes are frosted in variety of pastel colors and topped with white chocolate bunnies and chicks. Enjoy!

Delta Gamma Cupcakes

Katie's and my sorority, Delta Gamma, was doing a promotional week, and they asked Katie to make some cupcakes that were to be passed out around campus. She did a beautiful job with these little cakes, and let me tell you, they were a HUGE hit! She did yellow and chocolate cakes, with a simple buttercream frosting that she then died blue and pink. Our DG colors are bronze, pink, and blue so these were just too perfect! She topped them off with our Greek letters as well as one of our symbols (an anchor) that were both made out of hardened white chocolate. Don't they look delish? 







Peanut Butter Cup-Cakes!

For those of you who love the mixture of peanut butter and chocolate, this is the cupcake for you. It is a chocolate cake finished off with some thick, but delicious peanut butter frosting. The mini Reeses on top are the perfect way to complete the cupcake, and the frosting can be applied anyway desired. 




Cookies and Cream

Sorry we have not been posting for a while! I (Ainsley) was abroad in the Czech Republic from August until December, and when I was finally back in the US I had some medical things to attend to, so not much baking for me. Katie is graduating from the University of Denver this year, so she has had a lot on her plate as well. 

Anyway, the next few posts will consist of some of the recent cupcakes that Katie has made! This one is the Cookies and Cream, which was a chocolate cupcake, with Oreo-cream frosting topped with some Mini-Oreos!

Girl Scout Cookie Cupcakes- Samoa Edition

These cupcakes were made just for fun last week. They include a chocolate cake infused with coconut, carmel frosting, and toasted coconut shavings and chocolate sprinkles to top them off! The carmel frosting was extremely rich, but was well balanced with the lightness of the cupcake. So delicious!

Late Summer Cupcakes

These cupcakes I made for a dinner party and all age groups enjoyed them. I made two different types of cupcakes for this party, one was chocolate with a mocha butter cream frosting and the other was a pumpkinspice with cream cheese frosting. The chocolate cupcakes with the mocha butter cream were topped with a milk chocolate hardened swirl. The pumpkin spice cupcakes with the cream cheese frosting was decorated with mint leaves and raspberries.









Wedding Shower Cupcakes

I made these cupcakes for a wedding shower they are vanilla cupcakes with a butter cream frosting. There are three different decorations for these cupcakes. The first one is a butter cream frosting that is accented with a white chocolate drizzle topped with a hardened white chocolate swirl. The second is butter cream frosting that is topped with white sprinkles and white pansies. The third is butter cream frosting that is topped with a vertical hardened swirl. Enjoy!!
