Birthdays Galore

September has the most birthdays of any other month nationally. Think back 9 months. Yup dead of winter, it was cold and people tend to snuggle a bit more when the temperature drops. In perfect conjunction, last week was crazy busy! I made 3 birthday cakes, 1 cupcake cake, 7.5 dozen cupcakes, and 7 pies! And on top of that we had dance classes, soccer practice, two farmers markets, a soccer game, a college football game and a triple birthday party! It was wonderfully nuts!! Here are the pictures I haven't yet shared. 

 Mother-in-Law's Birthday Cake. She chose Cherry Chip with Vanilla Frosting. It was soo moist and the flavor was to die for!

 Red Velvet Birthday Cupcakes. The birthday girl had four with no frosting. She is not a frosting fan, but the rest of her family had a fluffy luscious cream cheese frosting. 

This cake was for my husband's birthday. He was a TMNT fan growing up and so it was only fitting that I make his favorite ninja come to life with a mix of fondant and gum paste. Donatello has been happily devoured. Chocolate Cake with Chocolate frosting. My husbands favorite since he was a little boy.

The recipients of this cupcake cake are cousins and both love Ninja Turtles. Mikey was a favorite and I love how he turned out. Cupcake cakes are such a fun idea and during a party there is no cutting needed! Yellow Cake with Vanilla Frosting.

 The 3 Birthday "Kids"

Coming Up this week are orders that include a chocolate bike with a touch of frozen, Minnie Mouse, and Castle themed cupcakes.  For the Farmers Markets there will be peach pie, apple pie, blueberry pie, raspberry pie. Peanut butter cup cupcakes,  Strawberry cupcakes with Coconut buttercream, and Chocolate mint cupcakes. TASTY!!!
