Once again I'm sharing something that I've shared here before. Sorry! The end of the week always seems to sneak up on me and then I find myself not prepared!
This is a giant cupcake I made from my "cupcake" cake pan, it looks just like the one below.
I love this cake pan. It was so funny...last weekend Lauren and I were at Bed, Bath and Beyond and she yelled out "look they have one of those giant cupcake pans here" She totally forgot that we already have one. I think the only time I've used it was for this seashell cake! Note to self: use this more often so you can justify that it really was something that you "needed".
The shells are made from fondant and I did a post awhile back on how I made them. They are really easy to make and seem to really impress people! You can click on this link to see that tutorial: How to make fondant seashells.
The "sand" is brown and white sugar mixed together and it really looks like sand! I've been wanting to make a regular cake with the seashells on top. There are so many beautiful ones on the Internet....click here to see! I feel inspired after looking at those, don't you?
I hope you enjoyed my seashell cupcake cake and hopefully it didn't bore those of you who saw it before!

It's Show and Tell Friday time! We've had some great weather here for the past week and it's really has me in the mood for Spring! The trees around here are flowering and the daffodils are blooming. There are still quite a few bare trees around but I see leaves starting to sprout from the branches! February is always the worst month for my allergies. Our driveway and all the cars are covered with bright yellow pollen right now! I guess I shouldn't be complaining because a lot of you are still covered in snow! Right?
