Decorated pouch with cupcake design (of course): this is small enough to hold credit cards, business cards, cash, etc. As you can see in the picture, the pouch comes with a hook so you can clip it to your purse.

For more information and directions on how to purchase this adorable pouch, please check out KaitlynCallahan’s shop.

One of my co-workers made mini red velvet cupcakes yesterday for her class, so I decided to take advantage of this cupcake opportunity and take some photos for you all. She used Paula Deen’s recipe but swapped in another recipe for the cream cheese frosting. The cakes were delicious little bites; thanks Marina for sharing them with the staff!

As previously blogged here, Tiffany & Co. has the sweetest little cupcake charm in the world. I just had to announce to an audience of people who I know will appreciate it that my awesome husband walked his big, bearded, tattooed self into Tiffany’s today and brought this little sweetie home to me.

As if it wasn’t cute enough, he had our three-year-old give it to me. I was loading the dishwasher when I hear, “Look mama, blue present!” Happy Valentines Day, ATC readers! And hey men-folk- the mall is still open, you too can win at V-Day!

Flour, frosting and fondant are the ingredients artist and baker Zilly Rosen will use to create portraits of US presidents Abraham Lincoln and Barack Obama, dpa reported.

Washington’s National Portrait Gallery and the Smithsonian American Art Museum are co-hosting their fourth annual Presidential Family Fun Day on Saturday.

The centrepiece of the event will be Rosen’s portraits, using 5,000 cupcakes arranged to look from above like Lincoln (1861-65), remembered as the Great Emancipator, and Obama, who took office last month as the first African-American president.

“This presidential portrait is not only distinguished but delicious,” the National Portrait Gallery touted.

Unlike the paintings in the galleries of the two museums, the cupcake portraits will have a very short shelf life. After staying on display for the afternoon, the artwork will be deconstructed by the children in attendance.

The free, family-oriented event, an observance ahead of Monday’s Presidents’ Day, will also include fife-and-drum music, singing, storytelling and historical impersonators including Lincoln and other presidents.

Thursday was the 200th birthday of Lincoln, who ordered the emancipation of slaves in 1863 and was assassinated in April 1865, just days after achieving victory in the American Civil War.

The cupcake artwork will be titled A New Birth of Freedom, borrowing a phrase from one of Lincoln’s most famous speeches.

This installation was also streamed live via webcast!

Being here in below 40 degree F temperatures for a solid 2 months with only about 6 days a month bringing glorious sunshine, I got pretty stoked when these came  into my Cupcakery. Tomorrow being Valentines Day I should be posting a Valentine, and I will. ;o)

These wrappers are gorgeous for DIY cupcakers. We even carry the chocolate coated, candy sunflower seeds to make the centre of your flower!

I would have liked to see a brown liner on this cupcake but alas … I digress.

You can check these out at my Cupcakery Shop because I just have to share <3
