I spent Friday screaming and getting soaked through all the layers of my clothes at a theme park with four of my girlfriends and had so much fun, slow drive home in weekend traffic and then a dinner at Wagamama's. When I finally got in at ten o'clock I was happily exhausted. Then up at 6am Saturday to bake 150 cupcakes for a wedding and I was a bit daunted at first but mostly it went well (my electric whisk blew up) and was such fun icing them all, I really think I could do this for a living. The house smelled divine and they looked so pretty all lined up in their boxes ready to be delivered. Think I will try whoopie pies for a birthday tomorrow.

and quite an undertaking. so many and for a wedding...pressure but obviously in a good way. i bet they were thrilled with their teeny cakes.
such a pretty collection of cases too. i'm a sucker for a patterned case! and totally with you on dreams of baking full time. i feel so happy with the oven on and trays lined up to go in! in fact baby girl is zzzing upstairs and i'm about to put my pinny on xx
ohh I love them.. so smart. I miss baking - am trying to be good before the wedding therefor cookies and cakes are a no no.. hey ho winter will be here in no time at thats when baking really gets underway for me. even though looking at your cases I can do a lot better on the presentation.. so pretty!
uhmmm, these are adorable.
I'm going to be making whoopie pies tomorrow too! the homemade marshmallow fluff is already done and delicious! x
They look beautiful! Yum, whoopie pies sound wonderful. Will you share the recipe? Please?

Sheesh! Well if my baking endeavors were half as cute as yours, all I'd want to do is bake too! Well done!

I'm sure you could do it for a living...they are beautiful! Where are those dleightful looking blue cupcake cases from? I made whoopie pies for Noah's birthday...went down a treat...and even better...so easy ;-)
they look gorgeous and really yummy!
Those look a lot better than my poor attempts at cupcakes. The decoration is excellent. I am very jealous! How do you get them to rise so evenly?
hi from Vancouver.
I just found you through one of my new fave blogs, Sunday Collector. All I want to do is bake too....but I need to keep my day job;) Consider me a new fan.
Hi Jeska...these look fantastic!! I think you could do it for a living also. Just saw a friends bouquet that she made for her own wedding and she did that amazingly well also. We can all be so talented really xx
Well Done! Yum yum! What's a whoopie pie?

You're amazing! They look great.
Looks so yummy, I want them all!!!
wow, you're brave to make all those cakes for a Wedding! Did you go along to the big day, too??
the cakes look fab by the way and as it is already 10am in the morning I may have to take a (virtual) bite of one of them!!
Wishing you happy days,

PS: I'm just loving the 12 items series - my own 12 items still has me pretty much stumped, but it is so great to see everyone else's and to discover their blogs too!
those are so pretty- I love to make cupcakes too but admit my icing isn't so well piped out. How were the whoopie pies? I'm still not sure about them
well done, they look great!! I took on the challenge of baking cupcakes for my friend's wedding and also my brother's wedding last year. Add that on top of being a bridesmaid at both, it was quite a challenge so worth it. Lovely pics!!
ugh- i wish i loved to bake.
They look lush!!!! Truly! Bet they went down well! xxx
So lovely to find your pretty blog and your cupcakes look a dream!
Those look so delicious!
I love CupCakes ! Humm...
All I want to do is paint... those lovely cupcakes!!!
They look to pretty to eat! They must have been the talking point of the wedding - that is after the bride!!
hugs

Ooh, these look lovely. I just can't stop buying patterned cupcake cases and there's no way I've ever bake enough cakes to use them all. But they look so pretty on my baking shelf!
They looks so wonderful! Have a sweet day!
Very, very pretty!
YUMMMMM now I'm really glad to have found your Blog, they look fantastic :) Catherine x
These look delicious! and the lines of them together make beautiful photographs. I love the smell of sugar and flour creating magic in the oven.

I'm like you.....I love to bake cupcakes and frost them.
They look just brilliant! I love to bake cupcakes but they never seem to rise to the occasion properly. Cheeky question I know, but what recipe did you use? I'd love to know!
Hope the wedding went swimmingly.
They look fantastic! Maybe you should do that for a living.
these are so BEAUTIFUL! where or where did you find those sweet cupcake holders? i want to buy some for my dear friend who is cupcake making maniac (she is 10 1/2 years old). please let me know!!
