Sept Baking Bonanza

It was a milestone weekend for Eileen's Cupcakes... I had 3 cupcake orders to make and unfortunately had to turn down a 4th order because I wouldn't be able to make it in time. The orders were all for different cupcake flavors also with a new flavor I hadn't made before... lemon cupcake. I've always been a bit afraid to do any baking with lemon because the flavor is so strong. But I decided to face my fears and take on the challenge.

The first order was for 2 dozen cupcakes for a child's birthday party. The theme was a Disney princess theme so I made princess decorations and also the girl's name and age in fondant toppers.  The flavors were as follows:
1. Chocolate cupcake with dulce de leche filling, vanilla buttercream topped with Skor mini, Skor bits and drizzled with chocolate
2. Chocolate cupcake with german chocolate frosting (coconut, pecan in a buttery mixture)
3. Red velvet with white chocolate cream cheese

The second order was for 12 chocolate toblerone cupcakes.  Chocolate cupcakes with toblerone filling, vanilla buttercream topped with a piece of toblerone and drizzled with melted toblerone.

The third and biggest order was for 50 Afternoon tea cupcakes all decorated with the afternoon tea fondant toppers for a baby shower. It was a lot of work but the decorations turned out really well.  The flavors were as follows:
1. Chocolate chip cookie dough cupcakes topped with cookie dough buttercream
2. Lemon cupcake filled with lemon curd, topped with raspberry buttercream.
