Valentine Cupcakes

Hi Everyone,
This post is going to be short and sweet, but here are some cupcakes that I made several weeks back for a friends get together. She said to use Red and Black and this is what I came up with. I had made extras to try out the cut out fondant shapes. I wanted to play around with the designs and the below is what I came up with. Just a tip for anyone wanting to try this out. Plan ahead and don't expect them to look a like: )  Mine didn't, therefore you only see the 2 designs!!
Enjoy :)

  23. Hi Manni Sweetie...
    Happy Pink Saturday and Happy Valentine's Day as well.

    Oh my gosh girl, can't you move closer to Phoenix? I love all of your creations, and your talent just grabs my heart. When I first looked at these little cupcakes, I though Lady Bugs. They are so gorgeous and the swirls and hearts. Oh Manni they are exquisite. Girl you are SO talented.

    I can't wait to see what you create next. Many hugs sweetie and SO much love to you. Happy Valentine's Day. All my love, Sherry

  31. I love your blog design. These cupcakes are very beautiful. I am very interested in baking cakes without eggs. What do you substitute them with?

    ReplyDelete

  32. these look very stylish and romantic perfect for Valentines day

    ReplyDelete

  33. Thanks Ashley, you are too sweet :) That would be awesome!!!

    Hi Gabriela, Thanks so much, we're neighbors. I'm in Mississauga: )

    Jenn, thank you so much, I substitute with a variety of things. For instance 1/2 cup applesauce equals to 1 egg. Also, there are egg replacers out in the market that have a mix of thickening agents ( all natural) to help bind. Email me if you have any questions: )

    Thanks so much Annie :D really appreciate that!

I have many passions in life, but what I’m passionate about is CAKES! I’m a self taught baker and I’m vegetarian! Cake decorating brings me into my own little world; it’s when my imagination and artistic abilities come to life.

Besides my obvious passion for all things sweet and sticky!!! I love to create (anything and everything), read, anything that is cute, clever and handmade. I also love a good idea!!!
