Oreo Cupcakes.

If anyone else is an avid pinterest fan like me they know how easy it is to pin 100 things but not actually make anything. So I forced my self to pick something off my "Sweet Sweets" board and actually make it. The winner? Oreo cupcakes from Keeping up with the Kunzs blog.

 

Yummy..

Start of School Cake.

As a special request, my boss asked me to make a cake for my unit congratulating them on a successful start of school. After thinking about what would look the best I decided to try covering a whole cake in fondant for the first time.

Honestly I'm not sure what I was so afraid of. My corners were not that smooth but for a first timer, I thought the end product looked adorable.

My friend sent me this link to a 4th of July Cake and I knew I had to try it.

 

 

University of Texas Tower Cake

One of my really good friends, John, asked me if I would make a graduation cake for him. First, I love making cakes for other people. Second, it was my friend John asking so I had to say yes. Next, he says "and the tower could be made of rice crispy and covered in fondant and we could just eat the base." I quickly knocked down that idea and told him I would just make a tower that was laying down. 

For those of you who do not know what "The Tower" is, here is a picture for reference:

John and his family were really excited about the cake when I brought it to his party!

Some More What? (Smore's Cupcakes)

In honor of the Sandlot, and all campers out there, I decided to make some Smore's Cupcakes for my Bingo night with some friends of mine.

Here is a quick video for those of you who have never seen Sandlot:

Next, let me first begin by saying that I didn't win any money that night playing Bingo, but the Cupcakes were a big hit in my mind. With a layer of Gram Cracker, Chocolate, and Marshmallow Fluff, I couldn't be any happier!

Update 2/17/12: I combined two different recipe's to make these. I wish I could remember what I did! Go to Annie's Eats and 52 Kitchen Adventures for the recipes!

Easter Lemon Pie

For Ester, I wanted to make something that was fresh and creamy, so I decided upon a lemon pie! Yummy! Unfortunately I only took one picture of the delicious pie, but here it is.
