Simply Sweets Wishes You a Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween!

I made these cupcakes for my family and neighbors to enjoy while we sat outside waiting for trick-or-treaters. Each cupcake is frosted with chocolate buttercream and topped with some scary faces - skeleton skull, devil, ghoul, and a scray monster. We also snacked on some Simply Sweets' Candycorn Bark.

Halloween Cookie and Cupcake Decorating Party

This year I hosted a cookie and cupcake Halloween themed party for some of my girlfriends. My husband and I host a large kids cookie decorating party but for Halloween I decided I wanted a night of fun with my girlfriends. I baked Halloween shaped sugar cookies and some of Simply Sweets' double chocolate sourcream cupcakes but left them bare ready to decorate. I colored buttercream for the cupcakes and royal icing for the cookies and put together a huge tray of sprinkles and candy.

I demonstrated 2 cupcake decorating ideas and then everyone got creative designing their own.

Police Officer Retirement Cupcake Tower

We created this cupcake tower for a police officer retirement party celebrating his 30 years of service. The color theme is black, blue and sliver. The topper cake is done with stripes, shooting stars, bow and a vertical 30. The cupcakes are topped with stars. This 5 tier tower has 84 standard sized cupcakes, 2 dozen mini cupcakes and is topped with a 6 inch round topper cake. We also created 60 chocolate badge party favors.

Stay tuned for part 2 of this celebration - part 1 was hosted at their home and part 2 will be hosted at the union office.
