What do you do when your baby sister turns 11? Throw her a cupcake party of course! In a perfect world, I would have decked out my mom's house in decorations to match the cupcakes...but since I barely had time to squeeze this party in to begin with, we figured everyone would survive without balloons and streamers. The party was a huge success, and I may have discovered a couple of cupcake geniuses in the making!
 |
| Everything laid out...calm...quiet... |
 |
Cupcakes: check, Icing: check, Sprinkles, chocolate,
sparkles and fondant bows: check check check check! |
 |
We started with a quick 'tutorial': I showed the girls how to pipe with
a few different tips, how to hold the bags, and where to start and finish
when they were piping onto cupcakes. This was the only point in the day
that they were actually quiet!
|
 |
| Then....the girls took over! |
 |
| Turns out, sprinkles are the solution to every 11 year old's decorating crisis. |
 |
| The birthday girl! |
 |
| Pretty excited about her pink icing! |
 |
| Cupcakes = Happy Kiddies |
 |
| "How much icing can I get on one cupcake?" |
 |
| Decorating is serious work. Those chocolate chips don't eat themselves! |
 |
| Taking a break from the stress of icing. |
 |
| The final creations! |
 |
| ......ew. |
 |
| so ladylike. |
 |
| Birthday Girl! |
 |
| So.many.cupcakes. |
