Neopolitan Cupcakes

So anytime I'm out and find a cupcake/cake decorating book,  I just have to buy it.  haha  So, when I found a cupcake recipe magazine at Sam's Club, I just had to have it.  Inside, I found this recipe for Neopolitan Cupcakes.  Oh. Em. Gee.  The were fantastic.


The recipe was really simple to follow.  And just like the icecream, all three flavors are in the cupcake.  The icing recipe could be varied, but mine is a basic cream cheese icing.  This cupcake was awesome and everyone needs to try it!

Boston Red Sox Cake

My boyfriend has a great uncle who just turned 89 years old, and he's a big Boston Red Sox fan.  So, I decided to make him a cake with a baseball theme to it.  This was my first time ever making a hat, but I think it turned out pretty good.


I used the small sports ball pan (half of it) for the hat and then decorated with fondant and placed it on top of an 8-inch round cake.  The cake is covered and decorated with buttercream.


I think he liked it. ;)
