Spiderman

This was for my little boy's 6th birthday party. I had been wanting to make this one for quite some time and finally came across the instructions so I had to give it a try. Of course my little man was ecstatic! The cupcakes below were made for his class as school the day before. He really wanted Spiderman rings on them, but the only way I could get them was to buy the cupcakes at a crazy price from Walmart and I decided to see what else I could come up with. I found the Spiderman chocolates at the Dollar Tree in their Valentine's section and made the webs with candy melts. The birthday boy and I were both pretty happy with the way these turned out, as well. :)

New Year's Wedding Cake

I made this cake for the New Year's wedding of my cousin, Abby and her husband Jason. They said "I do" at midnight. It was a BEAUTIFUL ceremony and I was so glad I was able to attend. The cake was all vanilla with buttercream frosting and fondant over all. He had proposed with red, white, and pink roses so we used those colors in the cake with some little pearl and silver accents. I wish I had gotten a picture of the mini sparkling cider bottles they had for guests. They were TOO CUTE!
