Utah Open House

 My AMAZINGLY KIND sister Jessie wanted to do something to help me get my cake business going here in Utah and came up with the idea of having a cupcake tasting.  She hosted it, invited all of her friends, and even helped me with cake pops!  It was a huge hit!  I am sure I will stay busy from here on out.  Enjoy some pictures...

When the guests walked in they found this.

 

 

 

Butterfly hearts lead the guests to the good stuff...

 

We decided to give away the two little heart cakes.  We had the guests enter a drawing.

 

  

Jessie set up a whole hot chocolate bar.  One of the best ideas I've ever heard.

This was the main table.  I made white cupcakes filled with lemon curd and frosted with lemon cream cheese frosting, chocolate cupcakes filled with raspberry mousse and frosted with chocolate buttercream, red velvet with cream cheese frosting, and white cupcakes filled with strawberry and covered in pink buttercream.  LOTS of work!

 This cake got to double as my centerpiece, and Tabitha and Piper's (my niece) birthday cake.  They love Strawberry Shortcake!

Jessie made a slideshow of my cakes that played during the open house.

It was a whole lot of work for both me and Jessie, but in the end it was all worth it!  Thanks sister!
