Tomorrow is Emma's 9th birthday and these cupcakes were made to celebrate her last year of being in the single digits. I made these last night and instead of spending a bunch of time writing a long blog post, I've decided to just hurry up and share these with you. I have a bunch more posts coming so stay tuned for the recipes. I just couldn't wait! (If you want to see a full screen version of the slideshow, click here.)June 13, 2009

Your cupcakes are totally groovy man!
ReplyDeleteWhen I grow up...I want to be able to bake just like you! :)
I bet Emma was thrilled with these.
ReplyDeleteThey are beauts! Perfect for a summer birthday party. I hope the Seattle weather wasn't a party pooper!
(Those are really good and wild colours that have stayed true even with the baking. It's like reliving the psychedelic 60's for me! Crazy, man.
wow! I love the little flip flops! so cute!
ReplyDeleteLoved those! I'm certain Emma did as well. The tie dye look is very cool. I also loved the fondant toppers you made.

ReplyDeleteYour fondant toppers are really well done, I like the surfboards a lot! :)
Hi Julia,
ReplyDeleteThank you for making my cupcakes. My friends loved them and I did too. It was great how they were all different things. I chose the boombox and the "E". They were super yummy! Thank you!
