Bridal Shower Mini-Cupcakes

  
These four summery Minis went out this past weekend for a bridal shower!

 Vanilla with Pink Champagne frosting!

Piña Colada (Vanilla cupcake with Carmelized Pineapple and Coconut Rum Buttercream)!

White Velvet Raspberry filled with White Chocolate frosting!

Chocolate with Nutella Buttercream!

My first apprentices!

Earlier this week, I was fortunate enough to have a couple of “helpers” in the kitchen with me! My cousins from Texas were here visiting and wanted to learn how to make French Macarons! They did fantastic; and for a change, I got to eat and enjoy some of the result!!!

They chose to make 4 types:  milk chocolate, champagne, lavender cream, and peach Bellini! Yum!
