Flower Cupcakes

 These cupcakes were made for a client to use as end of the school year thank you gifts for her children’s teachers.  I made the cupcakes and the rest of the presentation was all the creative energy of my client!  The cupcakes are yellow cake and decorated with pink, purple, and yellow buttercream icing to look like flowers. I even found green foils to look like stems.  Adding the cost of the foils is not something I have done when making cupcakes in the past, but as that side of my business grows I feel I must add it as a cost.  Thus, the cost of the cupcakes is as follows:


Buttercream Icing per Batch: $2.55 x 1.5 = $3.83
Yellow Cake: $1.93 x.5 = $.97
Foils: $1
Labor: $6.00 per hour x 1.5 = $9
Total: $14.80
