Stir the imagination

Meijer has a pretty good selection of baked goods, but when it comes to cakes it can be pretty straight forward. With our cupcakes we only have chocolate and yellow cake to choose from. Most people just want white butter cream and some sprinkles. A mother came in one day with her smart and talented little son, ordering cupcakes for a party. They wanted me to be creative with the colors, and I was compelled to do something special for them.


I made bags of striped icing just for their cupcakes. Red and pink, yellow and orange, green and teal, blue and violet. And colorful sprinkles topped each cupcake. I was very happy with these and thought they would certainly appeal to little children.
