Jack Skellington Birthday



My husband's birthday is on the 21st of December.  Although his birthday is "Before Christmas" is most certainly is not a "Nightmare."  He is, however, a huge fan of Jack Skellington and Tim Burton's "The Nightmare Before Christmas."  Thus, his Jack Skellington birthday paraphernalia!  The 3-D cake is a delicious and moist chocolate chunk iced with vanilla buttercream (and covered with Sweet T's made-from-scratch fondant).  What's this?  What's this?  There's birthday in the air!

Candy Cane Cupcakes

 
Cupcakes that actually taste like a candy cane?  Yep!  These tasty little Holiday treats do, in fact, taste like a curved stick of peppermint.  And not only the icing is rich with peppermint-y flavor . . . the cake itself is pure peppermint deliciousness too!  Crushed candy canes are mixed into the batter (and melt when baked).  Top each Candy Cane Cupcake with a few Christmas sprinkles and adorn with a miniature candy cane and these treats are all "dressed up" and ready for any gathering, get together, or party.

It's a Cupcake Christmas!




Those who really know me (and some who only know me a little) know that my absolute favorite color is pink.  I am an extreme fan of "pretty pink princess" anything.   When I saw this little pink Christmas tree, I knew it had to be mine.  Then, I found glittery cupcake ornaments and my happy worlds collided!  Thus, my miniature pretty pink princess cupcake tree!

SPICE things up this Holiday season!

 These delectable, rust-colored little beauties are none other than spice cupcakes.  A delicious blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice combine to create the perfect seasonal treat!  To top each moist and tasty cake creation is a swirl of lightly spiced cream cheese icing.  Holiday heaven!
