Flour Wedding

Back in July I did a cupcake tasting for Atlanta couple Maggie and Aaron. They selected Strawberry Margarita, Tiramisu, Shermanator, Vanilla to be served at their beautiful wedding on Captiva at South Seas Plantation.

The Bride and Groom worked with hip photog couple Ashley and Sam Brockington (http://www.ashleybrockinton.com/). They captured some great moments, as you can see in the images above.

The Ladies at Weddings by Socialites worked their magic once again to make everything go seamlessly. (http://www.weddingsbysocialites.com/).

Feel Guilty About Eating Cupcakes?

Becky Enjoying her Flour Scary Eyeball Cupcakes

No need to feel guilty about indulging this holiday season.....

Last year I discovered the most fun exercise class EVER- ZUMBA!

Zumba is a Cardiovascular Latin dancing class, and the sensation is sweeping Southwest Florida.

Zumba Instructor Extraordinaire, Becky Lang (http://www.zumbawithbecky.com/), has been helping me burn off those extra cupcakes calories. For our Zumba Halloween Party, Becky ordered some Pumpkin Spice Halloween Cupcakes.

Please check out Becky's blog (link above) to find out more about Zumba. Hope to see you there!

The Shermanator Marries a Bensonator!!

One of my best friends, Jessica Sherman (the inspiration behind The Shermanator) got married to Ryan Benson September 20th. What a great wedding!

Mike from Impressions Photography did an amazing job capturing the event (www.impress-photo.com)

I also must mention that Kelly and her team from Weddings by Socialites,(www.weddingsbysocialites.com) who made sure every detail was executed with perfection. They also saved the bride from a near flower catastrophe.

Andrea and his "Crew" from Dulce Vita on Sanibel prepared phenomenal food and an intimate atmosphere, while guests danced the night away to the smooth vocals of Dana Paul.

Cupcake of the Month-Pumpkin Spice
Similar to my moist and gooey Carrot Cake. For this seasonal cupcake I spice up an old favorite with pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves and then top it with my tangy cream cheese frosting.

Wedding Cupcakes

With all these weddings coming up, I have been on the hunt for cupcake accessories to make the cupcakes look extra special. I was so excited that my aunt found this great website, paperorchid.com, where they sell these cupcake wrappers, as well other specialty paper items. So I did a little experimenting this weekend, and I think the wrapper adds that extra special touch. What do you think? Leave me a comment.

August Showers Bring More Flours

It's Hot out there!
And I'm int the kitchen baking up some great things for August.

The Chronis Cupcake

Kimi and Vasso were married June 20th... and what a beautiful beach wedding they had! They also had the best Coconut and KeyLime cookies as party favors- so of coarse I had to name a cupcake after them!

This cupcake starts with a key lime cake, that is filled with my homemade key lime custard, and topped with a coconut cream cheese frosting- then sprinkled with graham crackers and coconut!

Fish Lips Paper Designs

Kimi and I went to Design School together. She is a very talented designer, and being the entrepreneur she is, as well as a lover of the out doors, she became the founder of Fish Lips Paper Designs last year. Here designs are beautiful and unique, and all printed on recycled paper with soy-based ink. Check out her website at http://www.fishlipspaperdesigns.com/
