Cupcakes take the cake

My sister baked these cuppies during Nina’s 75^th birthday bash. There was at least 300 pieces of cupcakes on the table that night but I only ate one piece .. I wanted more but .. they just vanished..

I think these ‘little’ people ate them!!

Happy Birthday!!!

Happy 11^th Birthday to Talun (Darren).… Happy 9^th Birthday to Talin (Darlene)…

Two weeks ago my nephew celebrated his 11^th birthday. He requested chocolate cupcakes!
so I made him devil chocolate cupcakes and butterwalnut cupcakes.

Then, Darlene celebrated her birthday at Pizza Hut last thursday. She wanted ‘princess cake’ and she got it! But she wasn't too happy with how her cake turned out. I didn’t post the photo here cuz the cake turned out pretty darn ugly (LOL)..
