HAPPY BIRTHDAY SANDY!!







Couldn't think of a more ideal person to receive the beach themed cuppies than Sandy....
Cupcakes By Kimmy handcrafted beachballs, beach towels, crabs and starfish to pile on top of the toasted coconut sandy beaches. But no beach is complete without the water and (cue jaws music) the great white lurking in the deep.
Take a peek at my creations of the week, hopefully they made the birthday girl laugh!
Eat cupcakes...

STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE...



These cool little Strawberry Shortcake cuppies were for the delight of Isabella's birthday party. With a selection of bright pink and blue frostings topped with either a Strawberry Shortcake ring or edible flower with Strawberry Shortcake pick in the top, they looked fantastic when grouped together and used as a birthday cake alternative.

I hope you had a great birthday Isabella...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARG!!!




Birthday wishes for Marg Duncan, the mother of my fantastic friend, Tani. I'm pretty sure all she wanted for her birthday was 12 mini presents...and she got them in the form of Gift Box Cupcakes.
Vanilla base and a pink vanilla frosting with colour co-ordinating ribbon wrapped licorice all-sorts perched high above. I had a great time making these cakes and I hope Marg and her cute little girls had a good time eating them!

BLEEDING BERRIES & GORGEOUS BLOOMS...



'Aqua On Marine' in Coolangatta are the lucky recipients of these delicious cakes. This cute little cafe on the beachfront has been retailing Cupcakes By Kimmy cakes for several weeks now and they are walking off the shelf.
The first little wonders feature handcut blooms with silver cachous embedded as a centre. Sadly, it's not too visible in the photo, but the pink underlaying flower is dusted with edible pink glitter which makes it really stand apart from the red flower...sweet!
The berry cupcakes are appropriately named 'Berry Berry Nice' ...although I've nicknamed them 'Bleeding Berries' due to the berry juice flowing through the vanilla frosting creating a heavenly taste sensation...

Why not try some cupcakes at your next party...or just hide them in the fridge and indulge yourself! For a current pricelist or any enquiries please email me on cupcakesbykimmy@hotmail.com.

Smile. Laugh. Enjoy Life. Eat Cupcakes.

Happy Birthday Madeline...



Madeline decided that she wanted Cupcakes for her birthday instead of a boring birthday cake...who wouldn't! Colour of choice was blue and they stood proudly on an all white stand surrounded by admiring kids! Even the adults couldn't resist.. "I'll just try one!!"

If you have an event of any kind coming up, Cupcakes can be used in a number of fantastic ways..

Bonbonniere for a wedding, favours for a baby shower or as an alternative to a lolly bag at a kids birthday party??

Think outside the square....xoxo

Another Day, Another Dozen...

A funky alternative to the boring birthday cake!!

I created these black and pink cupcakes for a 21st birthday party over the weekend using pale pink frosting with a black glitter star perched high on top... pretty & elegant looking if I do say so myself!!
The frosting on my cupcakes sits about 5 cm high, so when a group of cakes is placed together they really do create a talking point & when stacked onto a cupcake tower they make a fantastic centrepiece at any party.
Hope you had a great weekend too...until next time...

Garden Delights...




The Garden Delight cupcake is the latest addition to the 'Cupcakes By Kimmy' menu. With a range of bright colours available to mix and match, topped off with a gorgeous butterfly, there isn't a prettier way to celebrate your next event... Irresistible...

Here we are again...

My latest order was for 2 dozen cupcakes in gold and pink...this was a new experiment for me as I had not yet had the chance to use my beautiful gold edible glitter, so I set to work in great anticipation...

I decided to cover one dozen in pink frosting and one dozen in white frosting and cover both with the matching glitter colours. Take a look at the end result and also the cute little butterflies I created for the toppers.

Until next time...

Welcome....

Hi there! Thanks for stopping in for a peek at the latest addition to the 'Cupcakes By Kimmy' empire...

Alright, not an empire yet, but certainly growing strong and gathering a rapid pace of admirers and customers. Thank you all!

I am a 28 year old living on the Gold Coast, Australia with my fiance, Justin and two sons, Jacson and Oscar. They are where my love, hope, ambition and purpose all come from and are a constant source of laughter and happy memories.

It started with my enjoyment in making the boys cupcakes at home that got me started on the 'Cupcakes' path and I have never looked back. In October 2009 I made 60 cupcakes for my own engagement party and frosted and decorated each one individually in black cases with white frosting and black hearts. They looked elegant (if I do say so myself!) and people were raving about them...much to my surprise! No-one outside the family had tasted my cuppies before and I was glad to see it wasn't just Oscar who enjoyed them so much!

So I got started on selling cupcakes at my office individually and was soon receiving orders for cupcakes by the dozen. Yay! I have recently completed a marathon 11 dozen orders in one day...all to be delivered on Christmas Eve...Thanks Jacson for all your help!

Have a look around my blog as I add more photos of the cupcakes I have created. My email address is posted up the top if you would like any more information and I am more than happy to quote for small get-togethers or large functions!

Catch up soon

Kimmy.
