Lily's Playground Cupcakes



These cupcakes were made to celebrate the opening of Lily's Playground in the NRV Mall.  Lily is a beautiful little girl in our community with Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD).  You can learn more about MLD here: http://www.mldfoundation.org/

The money for the playground was raised locally and is meant to be a living memorial to the life and love Lily has brought to the world.  If you are interested, please read more about Lily and her playground at:  https://www.facebook.com/nrvlilysplayground

These cupcakes were made to blend with the playground's woodland theme, so I made suns, trees, flowers, and butterflies.  I chose suns because the sun represents the giver of life, trees and flowers to represent the circle and rebirth of life, and the butterfly because it represents the hope that one day there will be a cure for MLD.
 
Every cupcake was made of yellow cake and decorated with red, orange, green, lime green, yellow, teal, light blue, pink, or navy buttercream icing.  I believe the final cupcake count was 108 with 25 suns, 25 flowers, 25 trees, and 33 butterflies.  There is no cost for these cupcakes.  I donated them to Lily.
