Playing Around

Now that I'm finished with my first year of college, I find myself easily getting bored. When I get bored, I sometimes bake or buy things to decorate...

Chocolate covered strawberries. My friends and I originally planned to make these together but they ended up giving me the strawberries and told me to make them myself and to let them know when they were ready. Great friends, huh? :P

White chocolate covered strawberries. Maybe a good idea for Fourth of July? ;) 

Flat bottomed and rounded chocolate cake pops.

Graduation cake pops! I still need to buy square molds to make the caps,  but this was just me playing around to see if I   was capable in making customized cake pops. 

It's About Time!

I apologize in advance for this super brief post... but many of you have asked me if I had business cards, and I can now officially say that I do!!

My business cards!! Yayayayaya! I'm so excited!

Yay Summer!

Wooo! It's finally summertime! I'm finally graduated from high school and I don't have to worry about school until the fall! :D Congrats to the class of 2012! WE DID IT! Nevertheless I am oh so very sorry for lagging with my posts! But don't fret! I'll catch you guys up! ;)


June 15th (Rose themed cupcakes for Mrs. Crowley):

Flavor: Peanut butter chocolate chip with chocolate buttercream

Flavor: Chai with cream cheese buttercream

I'll try to sum this up as much as a I can, but basically Mrs. Crowley was my TA teacher for the past four years and June 15th was my last day of high school so I thought I'd thank her for all of the things she's done for me. :)

P.S. you see that person to the left of me? That's Mrs. Crowley! Isn't she fabulous?! ;)
Also thank you to Allen Chiu for taking this picture!

June 17th (Father's Day):

Flavor: Chocolate with chocolate buttercream

June 29th (Dodgers/baseball themed cake and cupcakes for Sean's birthday):

Flavor: Red velvet with cream cheese buttercream

Once again...

CONGRATS CLASS OF 2012! :D

June 8 - June 13

Normally I like to make a weekly post (depending on if I even have orders haha) but nevertheless, I forgot to add on two orders I got when I posted the post about Dance Dance Evolution!! Soo to catch you all up on what I've been up to.... ;)


Order #1 (June 8): Pig cupcakes for Jacqueline's mom.

Flavor: Vanilla with coconut custard filling
*the fondant is almond flavored

Order #2 (June 9): Princess cupcakes for Tori (to give to Mr. Case's daughter)

Flavor: Red velvet with cream cheese buttercream

Order #3 (June 11): A Northwood Timberwolf cake for the Distinguished Timberwolves Award Ceremony (to give to Mr. Banks)

Flavor: Vanilla with cream cheese buttercream

*This is the first cake I've made in awhile where I didn't cover it with fondant! Just a random fun fact! Haha

Last but not least...

Order #4 (June 13): Graduation cupcakes for Kennedy High's graduation

Flavor: Red velvet with cream cheese buttercream

*Another fun fact: this order was both ordered and finished on the same day! I surprisingly was able to successfully finish this order in about 3-5 hours! I'm still shocked. 

For future orders: I would not recommend anyone to order last minute! I cannot guarantee that I will be able to always finish the order you wish to have. Nevertheless, it never hurts to ask for your desired baked good! Ideally, 4 days or more is a good amount to place an order (the more in advance the better). :)

Dance Dance Evolution

This post is late, but remember how I kept trying to promote Northwood High School's, "Dance Dance Evolution" dance show? Well, you guys only got to see a sneak peak at what I was actually doing...so here are the pictures of all the cupcakes I did (for Friday night)! :)
*note: I made the same decorations for both the Thursday and Friday show, except I made more undecorated ones for Friday due to a bigger audience.

**I'd like to give a big thank you to Quincie Li who took these wonderful pictures!! It's pretty evident that I am a terrible photographer, so I'm glad that she was willing to take these pictures for me! :)

Soo many cupcakes!

My version of a "timeline" in cupcakes. It starts from the bottom left and zig-zigs to the right. The timeline starts all the way from Pangea up until 3012 (future).

"Pangea"

"Neanderthals" 

"The Golden Age of Greece"

"The Great Plague"

"Arabian Nights"

"Renaissance Spirit"

"Enlightenment"

"The Spanish Empire"

"Scientific Development"

"Moving West"

"Romantic Times"

"La Belle Epoque"

"Progressive Connections"

"Women's Rights"

"The Great Depression"

"World War III"

"Grease is the Word"

"Bob Fosse Leaves His Mark"

"80s Dance Up a Sweat" 

"Stomp the Yard"

"Natural Disaster"

"2012"

"Bare Bones"

3012

On another note, many of you probably didn't know this about me, but not only did I help raise money by selling these cupcakes, but I actually was in the show too! I've actually been involved with Northwood High School's (my high school) dance program for 4 years. So this was unfortunately, my last dance show ever! :( Dance will definitely be a class that I will miss taking in high school. I hope that I can continue to support NHS dance at their future shows!

I'll miss you guys! :')
