I like baking. Sometimes I can rock a cake better than Betty, then there are the few RIP moments over the trash. When a little girl you have known since minute 1 is having a birthday I must bake her a special cake. After all she wanted Salmon, mash potatoes and asparagus for her birthday dinner. Did I mention she is turning 11 and not 31. Since when does an 11 yr old want Salmon for dinner and not Mac and Cheese?
What kind of cake do you make for a little girl who loves pasta, and cupcakes? Flipping through the cupcake book I got for Christmas the idea slapped me. A pile of spaghetti and meatballs over a plate of cupcakes. Ok the pasta is piped out butter cream frosting. The meat balls and sauce is Ferrero Rocher Truffles dipped in strawberry jam. For effect shave some Parmesan, I mean white chocolate over the whole thing. Since she likes chocolate, the cupcakes were from a decadent chocolate cake recipe.
Here is the final results.
The are beautiful and she loved them. They will go down in the birthday cupcake hall of fame!
