Chocolate Ornamint Cupcakes

Chocolate orna"mint" (ornament) cupcakes by Janelle Weeden are the hit of the Christmas party! Happy Holidays, Happy Hanukkah and Merry Christmas!

Rah Rah, Siss Boom Bah! Here's to the Cheerleaders!

These cakes were for two girls and their combined birthday parties. One was a cheerleader for West Orange High School and the other is a ballet dancer.

This was my first time using pre-made fondant, the Fondarrific brand. The different colors were different flavors. After getting use to the texture and consistency, which took me some time, it was great to work with. It tasted like candy, the blue was berry, orange was orange, white was buttercream, red(ish) was cherry and the pink was tutti-frutti! YUM!

Hhhmmm, haven't posted lately!

So I've been doing a lot of work and have not posted pics except on FB. So here are a few to wet your appetite! Literally!

Batman had rice crispy treat arms! Never used them before, but thought I would try it for the first time. He ended up being a cutie! He had a cape on the back. I realized after the fact that I didn't get any shots of it. :(

Another first for me, making a baby! Not literally, because I have two teenagers, but out of fondant. Thanks to all the artists on Cakecentral.com that helped get me through that one!


I loved that the time, but now realize I could have gotten a little more detailed with the facade of the church. It was a hit anyway!


This is approximately one out of a gazillion pumpkins that I did. I totally loved each one, they all had their own look and identity!

Cool, fun little feather cake- what more can I say? Thanks for looking!
