These Are a Few of my Favorite Things


For my friend's mother, in celebration of her birthday.  This cupcake order featured a few of her favorite things: dark chocolate, the beach, coral, and The Beatles (and, of course, a few monogrammed cupcakes).  The dark chocolate cupcakes were topped with a dark chocolate ganache and white sugar shells.


Finding myself without access to a printer that printed with edible ink, I was forced to devise a Plan B.  My solution?  Print images on shimmer cardstock and finish with a decorative punch.  Unsure whether the paper would be foodsafe, I used the decorative punch to create a parchment backing.  The embellishments sat atop vanilla cupcakes robed in vanilla buttercream icing.
