And here's what I've been doing all this week! Preparing and making 5 different flavours of cupcakes!
From left to right: ALS Awareness Red Velvet (red velvet with cream cheese frosting and a fondant ALS Awareness ribbon), Winter Wonderland (white velvet cupcake with blue mint buttercream and a hand-piped white chocolate snowflake), Peppermint Mocha (dark chocolate peppermint cupcake with coffee buttercream, a chocolate covered espresso bean on top, and an old fashioned peppermint stick), Christmas Rose (vanilla cupcake with vanilla buttercream, and a vanilla-flavoured red fondant rose), and Gingerbread (gingerbread cupcake with maple cream cheese frosting and gingerbread man-shaped fondant decoration).
Making these cupcakes, along with the winter themed mini cakes, literally took all week, making a lot of those little decorations first (making those roses took an entire afternoon...) and doing all of the baking part of it between yesterday and today. Today, I made all five flavours of cupcakes and buttercreams. WHEW! Making those chocolate snowflakes was probably the hardest...a lot of them didn't turn out as pretty =P
I'll be selling these cupcakes, and the mini cakes, at a local Christmas craft fair tomorrow. All proceeds will be donated to the ALS Association. Here's hoping they'll sell like hotcakes...er...cupcakes! XD

Thanks! :)
Unfortunately, I didn't sell very many. Turns out it was just a really slow year for most of the vendors...I've got about 5 and a half dozen of cupcakes with no idea what to do with them O.o With the acception of giving some away to local friends, or sending some in with Trinsic to work.
