Bridal shower cuppies

So over the weekend I made some cupcakes for a groomsman to take to a bridal shower. Ok,  He was told to bring some and doggonnit, you are not going to bring store bought cuppies in my house to take over there!!

So of course I had to make them for him.

Right. Breathe. Where do I start?  I'm making the cake and cupcakes for the wedding too so I cant do the same thing. *Scratches head* Ok, Triple Chocolate Cupcakes with Kahlua Italian Meringue Buttercream!! And fondant flowers and and engagement ring on top!! No problem.......

They were fabulous!! The background picture on home page is the cupcake. I made the flowers from Marshmallow Fondant with black candied pearls.

I am not one to brag (that much) but they were the talk of the party. They upstaged the Costco picture cake (naturally, but thats another story) and everyone was fighting to get one.

The bride-to-be gushed over them and is excited to see what I will do for the wedding. Can you say "Pressure"?

Take a look....
