Father-Daughter Cupcakes

One thing I love about chEATday is hearing from old friends and being apart of helping them celebrate. I love this family and was so excited to get a request for cupcakes for father and daughter birthdays. Even though I didn't get to see them personally, it was nice to be in contact again and think of them while I made their treats. I can't believe a year ago I was making these cupcakes for the baby shower!

Karlee had asked for cream, rose, raspberry and mint green colors maybe using polka dots. Badabing-badaboom:


Cream frosting with pink and mint green polka-dots. I made daddy's cupcake with a mint green tie and daughter's cupcake with a raspberry colored heart necklace. And how do I not own one of these cute stands? LOL

I gotta tell ya though, these blondies gimmie a headache! Every time I make them I think I want to take them off the menu, but I keep getting orders for them and hearing wonderful reviews so they'll stay... for now anyway :)

cheatdaytreats.com IS GONE! :*(

If you haven't noticed already, cheatdaytreats.com is not me :*( The reminder to renew for another year went straight to my junkmail so when the time lapsed some mysterious guy in Dubai commandeered the URL.

I (almost) cried.

Instead I spent the next 3 1/2 hours on the phone with godaddy and online with blogger trying to figure the whole thing out. I've e-mailed the guy who bought it asking if we can work something out so I can have it back, but nothing yet. I am grateful that I didn't lose everything, but I have no idea if my followers are still getting notifications (anyone?). I couldn't sleep at all that night and keep dreaming that I have it back since my business cards have that URL and many people have that URL saved on their computers.

Any advice out there? Should I change it to cheatdaytreats.net or leave it here at blogspot? I'll sprinkle some sprinkles over my shoulder and wish for it back, but in the mean time I'm here at cheatdaytreats.blogspot.com

Lingerie Cookie Pops

These were a little ummm... difficult to explain to my kids LOL!

These were the final products:

Naughty

and Nice

Although I had quite a few trial runs in the process:

This was too "Chacha DiGregorio" (remember her in Grease?)

and this would be her little sister :)

this one too stripper-esque

too sloppy

too "RRRRROOOOOAAAAARRRR!"

and these were just to show you the kind of lingerie I deal with on a daily basis... DIAPERS!

Black and White and PINK all over

So pink, so chic, soooo yummy! These were made for a young lady's birthday, who doesn't love polka dots?

purrr...fect Hello Kitty cupcakes

These were for my cute little niece's birthday. I hope I've fooled you all, but I actually am not much of an artist at all! I was a little nervous about making these look nice for her. In addition to the kitty cupcake toppers I put her signature bow on each of the other cupcakes. I think they turned out PURRRR...fect ;)

I Hope They Call Me On a Mission

When I got a request for missionary cupcakes I was so excited! I've been wanting to do some for a while now, and was really looking forward to getting them done. She showed me how to write their name in Kanji and I had the idea of making a fondant nametag. She also suggested the Japanese flag, and I attempted to make it look as if it were flying in the wind. I love the way they turned out, what do you think?

I have to say though, these came with a side of guilt for me. My little brother is on a mission right now. He's currently in Peru, on his way to Bolivia this week. I wanted to get some cupcakes to him while he was in the Provo MTC, but I gave birth while he was there and the c-section just didn't allow it. Now he's just too far to send cupcakes. Any ideas on what I can send?

Happy Valentine's Day

Well hello chEATday-ers! I know it's been a very long time, but our special delivery baby girl is here and I am back and ready to chEAT. For Valentine's Day weekend Feb 11 - 14 I am offering chocolate covered strawberries. I thought about writing a description of them, but they are chocolate, strawberries, and amazing-ness, oh and toffee bits if you're interested (my fav).


They are being sold $15/dozen, and for my blog followers, mention this post, and you can add an extra dozen for an additional $10. Contact me via FB, a comment here, e-mail me at cheatday@gmail.com, or call/text me at 801-360-1211. Contact me for delivery options.
