The order was for 120 "whimsical flower cupcakes in a variety of bright,spring colors". It was so much fun to make. I watched dozens of flower "tutorials" on Youtube to get inspiration and I think the polka dot leaves from scrapbook paper were a great whimsical touch! I just free-handed the leaves, cut out 240 and stuck two on a toothpick with a little hot glue. Sounds time consuming, but it went together pretty quickly!
As with every baker, the transporting of the cupcakes to the party was the stressful part! I am still searching for the perfect, cost effective way to move a large order of cupcakes. I tried glue dots on these, but I am afraid they didn't work very well. I met the party hostess at an in between location to drop them off for the First Baptist Church of Powder Springs and they had slid around a little still. I have had the most success with sticking a dab of frosting on the bottom, but that can be so messy. There has to be a better way...
Anyway, I loved the way they turned out and I hope you loved them as much as I did, Sharon! Thanks for letting me be a part of the party!
