Softball Cake (My Third Cake :)

For the team captain. :) I thought nobody would want to eat the stuff on top, turned out everybody wanted to eat the softball/softball bats. =.= At least nobody volunteered to eat the trophy. :S

Taken pictures from all different angles. :)

Princess Cupcakes

To top it off, I made these "princess" cupcakes. Toppers came from Sur La Table. I meant to use their matching cupcake wrappers but forgot. Haha. At $12 a box, they are quite pricey. Wish they will just sell the "toppers" separately instead of in a box set, but I guess that way they make more moola.

Not very difficult to make, but my proudest work thus far. The blue icing turned out so pretty. ^__^

Emoticon Cupcakes

In addition, I also made these:

Inspiration came from a picture I saw on Pinterest, which came from WeHeartIt. It's not identical (again, the original looked better :(, but they were close enough. Hahaha

Hello Kitty Cake (My Second Cake)

So after my test run two weeks ago, I made a cake on my own for a friend's birthday. I was going to go with a pretty two tiered one then I learned that she loves Hello Kitty. Luckily, I have this Hello Kitty cake pan from Michael's.

I screwed up the first time because I thought perhaps you need more than 1 box of cake mix to fill the pan. What happened inside my oven was not pleasant. >_< Luckily the second time it came out perfectly. Tip: Oil the pan like mad, particularly Kitty's face!!

Completed one looked like this:

I should probably mention that my inspiration came from here. Theirs looked better. >_< But my eyes and nose were 3D, not flat. LOL Accidentally "glued" the eyes too high up and too close together. *Sighs* But using Pocky as whiskers were ingenious!!

Ferris Wheel Cupcake Holder

Wow, this ferris wheel cupcake holder is sooo cute. But $60? :O
