Sundae's on Sunday

So I saw a picture of cupcakes like this and new I HAD to make them, they look so yummy (and tasted yummy too). My darling little cousin and I had a sleepover one night and wanted to do some baking, this was the result! I tried for the first time, marble cake! It was kind of hard to work :/

This one turned out the best though.We used chocolate sauce, sprinkles and marchino(sp?) cherries. Have putting the icing on we used the sprinkles then drizzled chocolate sauce on top. We put the cherry on top and cut straws to stick in them as well. 

I had such great company with me during my baking :) 

My little helper. Isn't she adorable? 

 So if you are looking for some awesome looking cupcakes to make that are SO EASY, just grab chocolate sauce, sprinkles, cherries and straws... and viola! Sundae Cupcakes.

Odds and Ends: Cupcake Style

So before I decided to make this cupcake blog I had done a few cupcakes here and there so I wanted to use a post to show some of those cupcakes! The above cupcakes are some that my friend Ally helped me with, they are reese's chocolate cupcakes with a reese's middle. They were in honor of my friend Blake's Birthday last year.

 These cupcakes are cheesecake cupcakes that my roomie Claire and I made for New Year's Eve this year. We used mint leaves, dark chocolate chunks, chocolate shavings and orange peels curled for decoration.

I had so much fun making those peel curls, they made the cupcakes look very gourmet. My lovely roomie Claire is an awesome baker. She even has a blog about fashion and odds and ends of her life at http://mississippigirlmisplaced.blogspot.com/  , you should check it out! 

Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes! Pretty basic, thankfully my aunt had a stand thats made for making this exact kind of cupcake so she lent me that to make these. 

I had a ridiculously handsome co-chef for these cupcakes... 

Stay tuned because we will be redoing another type of ice cream cone cupcakes together sometime this summer! 

And so after this random cupcake post I will leave you with this great piece of advice...
