Her Royal Highness Cake and Cupcakes




Since I have both a Son and a Daughter I love the fact that I get to enjoy both "girly" things and "guy" stuff...however, since I am myself a girl I have to admit I have an affinity towards the girlier things in life! Needless to say, I have SO been looking forward to this project!! A baby shower done in a princess theme! The small cake was vanilla buttermilk with strawberry swiss meringue buttercream filling and vanilla meringue buttercream icing piped into mounds of beautiful pink ruffles - oh, the ruffles!! I then fashioned a banner out of white fondant and added "HRH Emma Paige" in gold lettering for the coming Princess and topped off the cake with a hand made gum paste tiara! The cupcakes were also vanilla buttermilk with vanilla swiss meringue buttercream, topped off with pink gum paste crowns, pink flowers and a touch of shimmer dust! Altogether a lovely welcoming for the little Princess-to-be! :)
