It's already late February and way past time that I've updated this blog. Unfortunately, one of the reasons I haven't updated is because I haven't made anything recently. My plans to make Valentine's day cupcakes were foiled by a host of midterms and lab reports and other un-fun projects. Also, the only birthday during this month that I had a chance to celebrate was my own, and, well, it kind of sucks to make your own birthday cake. So, instead of posting something new that I've made, I'm going to post my super secret birthday cake surprise that my friends made for me. They couldn't decide on what type of cake to make me, so instead they made cupcakes with miniature meta designs of cakes that I've made on top. The designs are made of food dyed almond paste (yummy!). It took me a little while to figure out which cake they all referred to, so as a fun game, see if you can guess which cupcake stands for what cake. I'll post the answers at the bottom of the blog.
Number 1
Number 2
Number 3
Number 4
Number 5
Number 6
Number 7
Number 8 (two in the middle)
Number 9 (one on the right)
Number 10 (the one not seen in any other pictures above)
That is all the cupcakes so, make your guesses now. I'll add some more photos and then put the answers at the end for you all to check.
The answers:
Number 1: Cakes from the past: part 1, owls!
Number 2: Shark Attack and Ocean Themed cupcakes
Number 3: Cakes from the past: part 3, Adam's dinosaur cake
Number 4: The Golden Snitch
Number 5: Saturn cake
Number 6: Cakes from the past: part 2, the pumpkin patch
Number 7: Travis's Birthday/The Return from Indonesia
Number 8: Mrs. Helgevold's birthday surprise or sunflower cupcakes
Number 9: Alien (to go with Saturn and also the one that took me a while to guess)
Number 10: Threadcakes: The Friendly Narwhal (it's the horn sticking out of the ocean)
