Pumpkin Cheesecake
Pumpkin cheesecake is not just for Thanksgiving. We baked a pumpkin cheesecake with a cinnamon graham cracker crust, a cream cheese whipped cream, and chocolate topping for a customer. It's rewarding to see the final product, but a bummer to not be able to eat it afterward.

Toy Story Cupcakes
Working with fondant is really great for decorating desserts especially when you are going with a character theme. Who doesn’t love Toy Story? My brother-in-law Steve certainly does, so we made Toy Story cupcakes for his 27th birthday. You’ve Got A Friend in Me.
Whiskey Cupcakes
After a long day at work, the two best indulgences are
chocolate and a drink. We combined the
two into a cupcake: Golden Crown Whiskey added to a dark chocolate
cupcake. Adding liqueur to your cake
makes it even more moist and delicious.
If you’re looking for a strong liqueur flavor for your cupcake (why
not?), then add the liqueur to the frosting as well. The majority of the alcohol evaporates out of
the batter when it is cooking.
Whimsical Bridal Shower
We made two whimsically decorated cupcakes for a bridal
shower: a dark chocolate with chocolate ganache and white chocolate frosting
cupcake, and a lemon-flavored with strawberry frosting cupcake. The latter cupcake was hollowed out somewhat
and then stuffed with a strawberry; healthy option. The lemon cupcakes were decorated with a
homemade white chocolate mold. The chocolate cupcakes were decorated with
homemade fondant flowers and fondant confetti.
Harry Potter and Friends
Ana is a huge Harry Potter fan. So for her (and my) birthday, I made her Harry Potter and Friends cupcakes. They are red velvet cupcakes with a cream cheese frosting. I wanted to stay true to the Gryffindor colors (scarlet and gold). She enjoyed them a great deal even if I was being a little selfish in baking them for myself as well ;) The advantage of being a twin.
