With fresh, organic flower decorations, from my garden~
... Pink Rose Fairy Cakes ~
and for Autumn ~

Pumpkin-Spice Cakelets with Brown Sugar Icing
And then another "cupcake" baked in molds as well, heart-shaped this time.
Brownie-like with Chocolate Ganache, and garnished with more edible, organic flowers from the garden.

Mari! These are just a dream! Pinch me and make me know I'm not dreaming. WOW! You are some kind of talented. Are you a professional chef? Or is cooking just your passion? Or both? My grandmother's specialty were cupcakes, and I don't know when I've ever had any better... but those cupcakes with the cream centers... be still my beating magpie heart! Oh, I could scoop them up and eat a baker's dozen before you could bat an eye! ;-)
ReplyDeleteThis is a gorgeous blog... from the deep blue color to the fabulous header of which I could eat my way through it.
Thanks for sharing. It was a delight!
Happy Foodie Friday...
XO,
Sheila :-)
These are some of the prettiest cupcakes I've seen in a long time! I love the fresh flowers on top, they are a gorgeous touch!
ReplyDeleteThis tour of cupcakes is a treat for the senses. What do you recommend for icing cupcakes? (I tend to use a spoon, and it didn't work today :-(. Icing everywhere, even on my neck. I tried a Ziploc bag, and the result was frightening; then I used the stiff plastic pastry bag and got control of it around the time the icing ran out.
ReplyDeleteLove your organic pansies.
Mari..tell me..how could anyone possibly eat those pretty things.??I mean I wont even are to hurt it..:O..you are awesome dear..Hats off to you for the nth time..:O
ReplyDeletepsst..visit my space for some more colors..;-)

These beauties are works of art! I'd say too pretty to eat, but if I was in their vicinity, I'd certainly help them fulfill their destiny as a food group! Nancy

Your food is always beautiful and with many of these you also combined your excellent skills in gardening.

Oh. my. gosh! Your cupcakes are stunning! Seriously, you are a master at this! I really like those Fairy Cakes, and the ones with fresh flowers are so beautiful ... that icing looks like a snow covered mountain top! Don't even get me started on those pumpkin-spice cakelets! I love the word, "cakelet"!

I remember them all, and would love to try each one.
ReplyDeleteThey are gorgeous!
I haven't seen you lately..all is well?

ReplyDeleteMari, that is the most beautiful collection of cupcakes I've ever seen! You are a true artiste - in front of and behind the camera. Wow!
ReplyDeleteoh dear god.
ReplyDeleteI hadn't seen these before I made my cupcakes.
if my cupcakes hang out with your cupcakes, they might learn a few things.
you think Skipper ever learned anything from Barbie? I hope so.
Thank you everyone! Wow, such generous praise.
ReplyDeleteI'm not much into making elaborate desserts ~ cupcakes are more my speed. :)
Thanks so much for stopping by, I love knowing you're there reading along! xo
You don't call these elaborate?? They are gorgeous and I'm sure taste every bit as good. I too, was hoping for a link to some of the recipes. We are having cupcakes (done professionally) instead of a groom's cake at my daughter's June wedding. LOVE cupcakes!!
