More 1D Cupcakes, Coming Up!

Ok so I'm slightly behind in my blog posts, but with the holidays on top of cakes, it's been a little crazy to say the least!  Two weeks ago I had the pleasure of working once again with my wedding couple from back in October.  They wanted a 'One Direction' Cupcake Cake for their daughter's Birthday party.  They liked the fondant toppers I made for the previous 1D cupcakes I did, so we went with them for this creation as well.  They wanted a cake made out of cupcakes, in the 1D shape.  

The cupcakes are chocolate and yellow with whipped cream icing.  In keeping with the 1D color scheme, I wrapped the board in red wrapping paper and used Wilton black & white 'color cups' for the cupcake liners (which work very well, meaning they look just as good after baking the cupcakes as they did going into the oven.. so I'm sure I'll be using them again since they come in a variety of cute designs).  Here are a few pics of the finished product!

Here is a shot where you can see the Wilton ColorCups a little better.. they looked great with this color scheme, and they don't get all yucky looking after baking (like most cupcake liners do).. love these!
