Black & White Cupcakes
Last weekend I had the pleasure of making cupcakes for my cousin’s college graduation party. My Aunt wanted black and white cupcakes.
We decided to make half the cupcakes French Vanilla
and the other half Dark Chocolate Fudge.
I used the Perfect Cupcake (using a mix) recipe posted here.
I didn’t want to use black icing………..have you ever had black icing?……
This is what happened when we had black icing a few years ago!LOL
I bought some Bright White Gel Paste Food Color and Black Chunky Sugar from Layer Cake Shop.
(you can click any of the pictures to get to flickr and chose to view a larger size for more details)
My Aunt also made the paper flowers that are hanging over the cupcake table! Aren’t they fabulous?! She has directions we can follow……but Diane of Created by Diane just happened to write a great Paper flowers tutorial post!
I was just so excited about how these turned out….I wanted to share!
