Summer Berry Cakes
These chocolate and vanilla cupcakes turned out just the way I had envisioned. Why not have a tasty cupcake and enjoy a cherry on top too!

Eclectic Cupcakes
Last Friday I wanted to experiment with some decoration styles so I whipped up a batch of Milk Chocolate cupcakes. To top them I made my classic buttercream icing but added some almond flavoring because this is my personal favorite.
For the first style I tried sprinkling the cake with cocoa powder, a simple touch.
Next I added some shredded coconut to give a furry white-on-white look.
For this elegant cake I used the large star tip to make stars rather than a swirl and then sprinkled with pink luster dust and white edible pearls.
For this final version, I used a minimal amount of frosting and some multi-colored jimmies to add a playful touch.
