Mints

I tried my hand at making pink cream cheese cupcake shaped mints for Miss Lily's birthday party. They were quite easy and I was very surprised at how well they turned out. Using the cookie cutter to make them cupcake shaped was the hardest part. Due to them still being soft when I shaped them, it was hard to get them out of the cookie cutter in the same shape. Once they dried and I took inventory we ended up with around 100 mints for the party! I was very proud and guests seemed to enjoy them. Here are some pictures of the process and finished product.

Cupcake pops!

Here are some pictures of the finished cupcake pops that we made. I think they turned out great! Our first batch didn't turn out like we had planned or wanted, so we changed it up a bit and made them a different way. The second batch went much faster and turned out much better! Enjoy!

We made red velvet cupcake pops!
