{Sugar Bee} Pretty in Pink and Purple Cupcakes

Cupcakes are always a little sweeter when they are pink and purple! And wouldn't you know, I received an order of cupcakes for a special little girl turning 2 years old and her favorite colors are of course pink and purple. So when it was time to create the cupcakes, I knew everything had to have her favorite colors, including the cupcake itself. These little beauties are vanilla cupcakes colored in pink and purple for a fun surprise when bitten into, and frosted with a pink vanilla buttercream. For added sparkle, I sprinkled the cupcakes with rose gold glitter dust and topped them with a purple chocolate number "2" brushed with a gold luster dust. These are cupcakes will surely dazzle and delight!

 

 

Happy 2nd Birthday Sophie!

{Sugar Bee} Having a Ball with Soccer Cupcakes

In addition to soccer cookies for Beckam's soccer themed birthday party, his mama also ordered some cupcakes to go along with the theme! These were so much fun to create! I made red velvet cupcakes and decorated them with grass piped buttercream and topped them with mini white chocolate covered Oreo soccer balls. Each ball was hand colored to create the black and white soccer ball pattern. The end result was perfect! I hope the birthday boy and his friends have a ball eating these cupcakes!

Happy 6th Birthday Beckam!

{Sugar Bee} Cookies that will Bend it Like Beckam

A special little boy turned 6 this week and I had the pleasure of creating some sugar cookies for his soccer themed birthday party. This little soccer star not only loves the game, but he is so good at it too....which is appropriate since his name is BECKAM! So I created soccer ball and jersey cookies inspired by the birthday boy's soccer gear! To personalize the cookies even more, I added his name and his age to the jerseys. These cookies will be "kickin' it" at the party and I hope Beckam loves them as much as I loved making them!

Happy 6th Birthday Beckam!

{Sugar Bee} St. Patrick's Day Shamrock Shake Cupcakes

Today is St. Patrick's Day and though I may not be Irish, my husband and kids are so I wanted to create something special to show our St. Patty's Day spirit and to give a little nod to my family's Irish heritage. So this year, we are celebrating with some Shamrock Shake Cupcakes! These green cuties are vanilla mint cupcakes topped with a whipped cream cheese frosting and decorated with a mini chocolate covered Oreo shamrock. These are our family's pot of gold! May the luck of the Irish be with you!

{Sugar Bee} Beer Steins and Bowie Cookies for a Fun and Unique Birthday Party

When I received a custom sugar cookie order for a joint birthday party for a pretty cool and awesome mama and her baby boy, I was totally "hopped up" and "beery" excited! Ok, I know, enough with the puns, but let me just say that this is probably the most fun and unique birthday party ever! This mama shares a birth month with her little one, so she planned a super fun and hip party for the two of them.

Because mama is a beer drinker and a fan of breweries, she wanted a beer stein cookie. However, not just your typical beer stein, but a cute one. So I created a beer stein with a subtle gold polka dot pattern (because mama likes polka dots) that kinda resembles the bubbles inside the beer glass, and added a cute girly face with red lips and eyelashes, and completed the look with a red bow. To top off the beer stein, I created fun bubbles overflowing from the glass and highlighted them with a bit of pearl luster dust for some added sparkle.

For the little man turning one, I wanted to really highlight his age by created a number one cookie. The first birthday is a super special one, so I knew these cookies needed to be just as special! So I added the same polka dot pattern to try and unify the two cookies a little bit, and then decorated the cookie with a David Bowie lightening bolt. Why a Bowie lightening bolt, you ask? Well mom and dad are such huge David Bowie fans, that they named their little one after him! So this cookie not only signifies their love for the musician, but of course the love for their little boy who is hitting his first big milestone!

I have to say I really loved making these cookies and I think they are just unBEERlievable! Wishing both mama and baby Bowie a very Happy Birthday!

{Sugar Bee} Under the Sea Sugar Cookies

When my daughter told me she wanted mermaid cupcakes for her 6th birthday, I thought what a perfect opportunity to make under the sea sugar cookies to coordinate with the cupcakes! What was even better was that she had no idea that I wanted to make them for her so they were a complete surprise! The look on her face when she saw her seahorse, jellyfish, starfish, and sand dollar cookies was absolutely priceless! She was so excited for today to come and now that it is here, she will be digging into these cookies that she has been anxiously waiting to eat!

Happy birthday my sweet girl! I hope your day is full of mermaid kisses and starfish wishes!
