2016 Preschool Graduation Kiddo Cupcakes

I made these cupcakes for my son’s preschool graduation and moving up ceremony.  This way every child got their own cupcake!  They are all yellow cake and they are decorated with peach, chocolate, blue, green, red, gray, raspberry, yellow, purple, and black buttercream icing.  This year I added eyebrows, and ears for personality.  I also included hair bows or headbands depending on the little girl, and also to tell them apart because so many of the little girls had similar features!  My favorite part about these cupcakes is they celebrate how each child is unique and special even when represented in cake!  Please contact me for pricing information.

Gotham City Cake

This cake was made for a little boy's 7th birthday who loves Batman.  I have made at least three different types of Batman cakes and cupcakes for this little man, so this year I had to do something different. I always research my superhero cakes to get as authentic as possible, so I really struggled with the bat symbol on this cake.  People do not like to eat a lot of black icing, so I made the sky as dark blue as possible to show late evening right before the sky turns black.  I also learned Adam West was able to make the bat symbol during the day time, so ultimately I was ok.  This 9x13" yellow cake was decorated with yellow, navy, gray, and black buttercream icing. The final price of this cake was:

Icing: $3.55 x 1.25 = $4.44 

Cake: $2.81

Wrapping: $4.88

Labor: $7.50 x 3 = $22.50 

Final Price: $34.63

Hokie Retirement Cake

This cake was made for a lady retiring from Virginia Tech, so naturally this yellow sheet cake was decorated with orange, maroon, and white buttercream icing.  I think it ended up fun and a little different from a typical retirement cake.  The final price of this cake was:

Icing: $3.55 x 3.5 = $12.43 

Cake: $2.81 x 2 = $5.62

March Birthday Cake

With the exception of my nephew, all of my family member's birthdays reside in either March or November, so we celebrate the March birthdays sometime in March and the November ones at Thanksgiving.  This two layer yellow cake was decorated with white, peanut butter, and chocolate buttercream icing.  It was a big hit, but way too much cake for all of us!  Unfortunately, whatever I make has to be large to fit five names on it! If you are interested in the cost of this cake, please email me.

Easter Big Cookie

We arrived back from Mass on Easter morning to begin cooking dinner when my son asked where the Easter big cookie was.  There was no Easter big cookie, nor was there a plan to make one.  When I told him this, his response was, "But momma, you're the cake lady."  He had me there.  Fortunately, it didn't take me long to whip up something small, though I must say my instant bunny drawing skills need practice. This big cookie is decorated with blue, orange, green, white, and raspberry buttercream icing (the colors my son requested).  If you are interested in the cost of this cookie cake, please email me.
