Crazy for Cupcakes!

For my daughter's 11th birthday, we had a party inspired by the show "Cupcake Wars!" Our family made our traditional cardboard cut-out decorations and baked 96 cupcakes. My daughter and her friends had tons of fun decorating their cupcakes and competing in all the cupcake games and contests! I was inspired to paint some mini cupcakes with my special frosting technique! Yum!

Let Them Eat Cake!

With the recent snow days, I finally had a chance to start the cake paintings I had sketched ages ago. I also had time to create a mini version of my pink cupcake painting that was in the Artomatic show. I love the 3-D effect. The frosting looks good enough to eat. These colorful (and tasty) creations will be complete just in time for Valentine's Day! If you are interested in purchasing a piece, please email me at jackietury@cox.net. Now it's on to the baking of real cakes and cupcakes. Happy Valentine's Day!
