Pink Cupcakes

I hosted a baby shower for my cousin's little girl, and had TONS of fun making the baked goods and appetizers. It was a co-ed shower, so I tried to not make it "too" girly... the colour scheme was pink, brown and white (which yes, is quite girly), but there were no storks or little baby things... just good food!

Here's a shot of the table, with the treats that i made before my aunts brought their goodies:

In the back are the fresh blueberry tarts filled with pastry cream. In the front are an assortment of cheese bites: fig with walnut and blue cheese, feta with dill, and goat cheese with almonds. The giant pink puffs are, of course, delicious cupcakes. Here's a close-up:


Sorting through some photos, I came upon this shot of some MORE pink cupcakes I made a while ago:
These were strawberry yellow cake, with fresh strawberry swiss meringue buttercream. YUM!
