Caketastic Contests
I finally figured out what I want to do for my entry in the Cupcake Spectacular 2008, hosted by Arfi Binsted at HomeMadeS.
I will let the design be a surprise until I actually make the cupcakes and feel pleased with the results. No need to get all excited about an idea if I change it at the last moment, huh? ;)
No need to worry. These cupcakes should be pretty spectacular, right? All I need now is a couple of ingredients and an afternoon to myself this Saturday.
I am also formulating ideas for Taste of Home's Cute Cookie Contest. The deadline for that contest is still a few weeks away, but I need to really get the ideas going. I Googled 3-D cookies, because I was at a loss as to what to make for that category. I think I know what I'm dealing with now, and man, are those creative juices flowing! Good thing "you may enter as many items as you may wish!" So, if I have time after those cupcakes, I'll make some cookies!
One last note: I found out today that cupcakes are called fairy cakes in Britain, and I must say that I like that name a lot better!

congratulations on finding your passion and pursuing a dream of sweets!

Good luck xxx

Kelsie, I just stumbled on your blog from the blogger homepage -- if you hadn't seen already, they featured you! I am a tried and true lover of all things cake, and I think you are doing such an amazing job! I had to read over your description twice just to make sure I had read the "I am a sixteen-year-old" part right. I look forward to seeing what you enter into the cupcake competition! Speaking of which, ever considered banana?
Kelsey, you are so creative-I can see the entrepreneur in you, and wish you success in living out your cake dreams!!

I love your blog. I'm so glad blogger featured you and I got to see your work! I go absolutely nutty for cake decorating--I'm also a self-taught amateur, at age 22. Fun hobby, isn't it? And so tasty...
Jessica-
Yes I have considered banana. Banana bread is one of my favorites, so I imagine that banana cupcakes would be pretty good. Thank you so much for visiting my blog and I'm very glad that you enjoyed it!
Beckie-
I'm sure your word is more authentic than an internet site, but I do like the name "fairy cakes" best. Whatever they are called, though, I love them! Thank you for visiting my blog!
Everyone who has commented thus far-- I really love all the comments and appreciate you taking the time to visit my blog and read it!!
