mara--yum, the zuch cuppies look yummy and actually kinda healthy

Steph--looks like you''ll be in business for monogram baby-shower cuppies !!

Dandi--the butterflies are so SO cute!!!

.....
Well, the wedding cuppies went well. The liners never did come in so i just used regular crappy white ones

(i couldn''t even find good quality ones in this town) but the decorating went well and everyone loved them. I ended up doing 11 dozen. I baked them the night before and iced them in the AM. It was insanity since i was also in the wedding party (hair, makeup, duties etc. to fit in ) and five different designs (even tho they were simple) was time consuming. My kitchen was an absolute disaster!
I didn''t take any pictures, but if i can get one from someone, i''ll post em.

Now, i just need to find some use for hundreds of black liners....when, and if, they come in

Perhaps someone might need some Halloween cuppies?

 

[Jas12]

hlmr--Yes! Halloween cuppies is a great use for the black liners

Ok ladies...

I finally had a moment to resize some cake pictures... would you like me to post them on this thread (they are not cuppies)? or start a new thread...? and where? take your pick!!!

Let me know!!!

 

[Jas12]

I vote for posting them here jaders--lots of us post non-cuppie pics (myself included)

 

[Dandi]

Oooooh Jaders post them here! Can''t wait!!

 

[Porridge]

Silly question Jader...we wanna see them!!

 

[Mara]

[Camille]

Oooooh Jaders post them here! Can't wait!!

Ditto, I'm sure they are gourgeous Jaders! Keep staring at your decos Dandi

Made these for today's BBQ [family] all Vanilla Bean cake with: Caramel, Double Vanilla and Pistachio whipping cream. Had to hand out plastic spoons for reg size ones, kids tend to squeeze cuppies out instead of peeling down from the clipped part, oh well.

 

[Jaders731]

OK.. ladies.. here goes!!! There are TONS of pics.. and I am going to try and do them chronologically... You will be able to see how things have progressed for me in the last 5 or 6 months. Also, please know that these cakes for the most part are a set design that I just recreate for the bride. I am positive you will all know where I work once I start posting.

If my internet goes down, I''ll try and get back as soon as I can. Please be patient, as I am just coming off a 60 hour week. I worked till 2:15 am lastnight, and I am runnin on EMPTY.. but, this is for you ladies, and your insane love for all things CAKE!!!
