This special birthday girl challenged me with a not so easy task…

🥳 the ask: not into cakes, loves cookies and cream ice cream & is even more in love with the color teal

🧁 my proposal:
- a cookies and cream cupcake ( tower )
- cupcakes filled with homemade cookies and cream ice cream
- homemade whipped cream frosting in teal ( ombre effect, cause why not?)

👌 success!

You don’t turn 10 everyday 😉

🎁 Why have a cake? When you can have something more special.

This cupcake tower was made for my friend’s birthday… and inspired by her love for cupcakes, strawberries, and the colors pink and purple.

🍓 Strawberry American buttercream frosting: deliciously flavored and naturally colored with freeze dried strawberries
🧁 Strawberry cupcakes: moist sponges made with homemade fresh strawberry purée
