I found this fantastic tutorial on
Annie's Eats. I love this lady! She has so many fantastic recipes. I was asked to make 6 dozen cupcakes for a bridal shower. The wedding colors were red and yellow, so I was asked to incorporate those into the cupcakes. I went with 3 different flavors, cuz you know me, simple??? What is that word? So here is the first one.
I had been wanting to try Pineapple flowers for awhile, and this gave me the perfect opportunity!

So, it isn't as pretty as the one on the tutorial, but I figured it wasn't too shabby for a first attempt! One thing I did discover though is that cutting pineapple really thin, is really hard. I had to turn up the heat (hence the brown edges) and leave them in the oven far longer than what the tutorial recommended.
They still turned out cute though, so I'm happy with it! And they were a hit! The cupcakes themselves were vanilla with a pineapple buttercream. Yum!
Well, I am happy to be back and blogging. In non-related baking news, I bought a house, with more counter space. I guess that does make it baking related, as it will give me more room to bake! I am incredibly excited for it! I will try to update more frequently. I do have a backlog of things to blog about that I haven't done. Oops.
To those who actually still care about my little blog.... thank you.
