    St. Patrick's {Cupcakes} Day

    I'm a closet cupcake maker. I haven't really mentioned it before but I've made 1000's of cupcakes over the last few years. I make them for every holiday, friends weddings, family weddings, every birthday party, bridal showers, I've even made them for a bachelor party! It's something I LOVE to do!
    So with it being St.Patrick's Day, I did the 'oh so predictable thing' and made cupcakes!
    A simple Rainbow Sprinkle Cupcake, with a butter cream icing, and a little sugar 4 leaf clovers!

    I iced them 2 different ways:
    1) a simple spiral

    2) a random spiky pattern (it kinds of looks like hydrangea leaves to me).


    Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

    p.s I'm working on a cupcake decorating how to:, keep an eye out for it in the next few weeks!! :)

      Yummy. I love cupcakes. My 13 year old and myself love to bake and these are our specialty. Happy St. Patty's Day.

      Oh wow, love them too. Easier than cake or pie I think. I'm ready to bust into some green frosting myself this weekend.

      Yum! They look so good. Okay, now I am going to HAVE to stop by our local cupcake shop for one today (yes, I know, I could make some-but I am an instant gratification kinda gal). LOL And, Kate's busy today! (she's my cupcake maker)

      Have you checked out Scoop N Save yet? It's on Fraser highway right downtown.... if you haven't been yet I suggest you go check them out, they have an awesome selection of cake/candy/cupcake supplies. (and lots of bulk sprinkles!)

        I am a VERY regular client of Scoop N Save!!! haha
        I'm probably in there at least 2 or 3 times a month! Also when I'm too lazy to make my own icing I buy their pre-made icing I might almost say it's better then mine ? ? ? maybe. hehe

      I love cupcakes and everything that goes along with them.... including eating them. I've found that decorating/icing cupcakes is super therapeutic for me. I guess decorating a whole cake would put me into a complete relaxed state.

      OOOOOO,Those look scrumptious! I just found your blog through Centsational Girl and I have to say "I Love Your Style!" Your house is beautiful. I'm so jealous because we have builders oak looking molding and my husband doesn't like white all that much. I love white, especially when it's mixed with other colors like your house is. Some day I hope to convince him to change some things to white.
