Today a special birthday girl is going to celebrate her special day at the zoo and along with the fun of seeing the animals she gets to enjoy some delicious zoo animal treats as well! I had so much fun creating these little cuties. Hopefully she goes bananas over them!

{Sugar Bee} Toy Story Cookies

These fun Toy Story themed cookies are going to "inifinity and beyond"....or to Graham's 1st birthday party!

I was recently asked to create chocolate covered Oreos and sugar cookies for a Toy Story themed party. I love using the age and initial of the birthday child, so I thought how cute would it be to dress up a number "1" and a letter "G" to look like the main characters of the movie?! They are now all dressed up and ready to celebrate with the birthday boy. They will have everyone "reaching for the stars (or a cookie)".

{Sugar Bee} Cookies N Cream Cupcakes

These sweet treats may have you in a sugar coma, but they are delicious! They are chocolate cake with a surprise cookie in the middle, topped with a cookies n cream buttercream frosting, and decorated with a mini chocolate covered Oreo. These make a perfect pairing with a tall glass of milk!

{Sugar Bee} Roaring Twenties Hollywood Glam Sugar Cookies

I had the pleasure of creating sugar cookies for a momentous birthday to celebrate a special lady turning 90! The party theme is Hollywood Glam of the 1920s, since of course the birthday girl was born in that decade, so coming up with something cute, glitzy, and reminiscent of the roaring twenties was important. So I went straight for the glitter to create the glitz, and then thought a flapper girl was indicative of the twenties time period, and finally a cute 90 to emphasize the big day. All together the set is full of pizazz and they are ready to walk down the red carpet and Charleston the night away!

{Sugar Bee} Everything's Coming Up Roses!

I am definitely not the one with the green thumb in the family....my husband has that area covered! Thank goodness, because I can't keep a plant alive to save my life. But, I CAN create roses out of chocolate....which might be even better because they won't wilt. Though, keeping them out long enough to enjoy looking that them before devouring them might be the challenge!

{Sugar Bee} Chocolate Cherry Cupcakes

My kids LOVE cherries (this has been a recent discovery), but of course who doesn't, they are sweet and fun to eat, especially when they are in a yummy beverage. Therefore, I have been dying to make some cupcakes for my kids using cherries. So I made a classic chocolate cupcake and topped it with a cherry-almond buttercream and decorated it with a chocolate covered cherry. I especially love how the frosting turned such a lovely shade of pink! My kids devoured them....children approved!

{Sugar Bee} Margarita Cupcakes

I am bringing cupcakes back! 
It has been a while since I have focused on cupcakes and I have decided that it is time to put some focus back on the little cakes once again! This last week I had the pleasure of whipping up some cupcakes for a housewarming party to go with a Mexican food theme. So because I knew this was an adult-only party, I immediately I thought, margarita cupcakes! These sweet treats are full of delicious lime flavor with the most important ingredient, tequila! Though they won't get anyone buzzed, they do add a bit of the margarita flavor to the cupcakes. Garnishing was easy with the addition of a lime wedge!
