Cupcakepalooza!

I survived the

WEDDING CUPCAKEPALOOZA!!

This past Friday morning,

I headed a few miles down the road 

to the wedding/reception venue.

It was time to get my baking on!

I decided to bake the cupcakes at the venue...
because there were 3 ovens!  

As well as lots of counter space.

 

The 3 recipes I used are all from scratch.

No boxed mixes for this wedding!

{I'll share the recipes another day.}

 

Flavors:
Strawberry Lemonade

Red Velvet

Chocolate

 Saturday, I frosted the cupcakes.

I thought it would be best to break it up in to two days.

Plus, I didn't know how the icing would hold up.

The red velvet had cream cheese.

Chocolate has chocolate buttercream.

Strawberry lemonade with strawberry lemonade wedding cake frosting.
{I made this recipe up myself.  Kind of proud of it!}

 In the end, there were over 300 cupcakes.

I made sure each of the piping tips was different, 

so each cupcake looked different.

 When I left the reception Saturday night, there were only a handful left....

and there were still over 2 hours of the reception/dance to go!

Believe it or not, I think I'd do it again if asked!

So, who needs some cupcakes?
