In the year 2008 B.C. (Before Cruise)
Before we embarked on our cruise, about a month ago, some of our super-nice neighbors threw us a “Bon Voyage” party (I have a sneaky suspicion they just wanted an excuse to have a party). As with any party, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to make… cupcakes!
What kind of cupcakes? Why, “Bon Voyage” cupcakes, of course. Sadly, I missed the boat (pun intended) in one aspect of my cupcake-decorating, as it wasn’t until the next morning when I realized, “Gosh darn it, I should’ve sprinkled some of my Whole Grain Cream of Wheat on the cupcake plates to make it look like sand!”
Sand slip-up aside, I was really happy with how these babies turned out. So were all the other party guests, as every little cupcake did a disappearing act by the end of the party.

And here I am, showing off my (naked) vegan red-velvet cupcakes.
Scandalous! Quick, get some icing on these guys!

Fabulous decorating. Looking forward to the fondant post as I just make a mess of icing so tend to make muffins more than cupcakes.
Those are so cute!!!

Amazed. Is that a penguin with snorkeling gear on?
I can’t wait to hear how you do these, and how long it takes you!
Just so cute & fun! Love it! And you know I am *so* looking forward to your fondant post! (And so is my daughter, because then I'll be able to dress up her cupcakes all perdy!)
Thought of you this morning… I ate purple porridge!
Cute cupcakes!
The little characters are so detailed! Great job, you’re an excellent cupcake maker and artist!
I just love themed cupcakes!! These are so adorable! So do you cut all the shapes by hand? I have a big fondant project next week and am looking for some advice… maybe I’ll shoot you an email
Omg, they are gorgeous. So cute! You are so talented!!!
You and your cupcakes are just so adorable!!! Love them!
SO adorable!
By the way, shouldn’t you change your age in your “about” section to 22??

So cute! Really nice job!
I love the seagull!
I always find the art on your cupcakes so amazing. I bet they also taste good too.
Those are so adorable… do you think there is a special way to be able to decorate to make them look that good or is it just PURE TALENT! Very impressive!
Love love love that seagull – super cute. Any excuse for cupcakes is fine by me.
They are all gorgeous! It’s the sweetest art work I’ve even seen
So gorgeous (the cupcakes and YOU!) You are so talented!!
You are really, REALLY good at decorating cupcakes. I need some lessons from one Chocolate Covered Vegan!
They are so festive! I bet the cream of wheat would have been a nice touch.
What a lot of work you must have put into these cuppers! You’re so creative.
I love the anchor and the whale the most! But they’re all gorgeous. You are super talented.
BTW, are you far away from the hurricane?! When I heard it was headed for Texas, I worried about you!
i want the penguin one!!
