Another boy! Seems like last year was the year for girls, but now the boys are catching up! The hostess couldn’t decide between chocolate or strawberry, so we decided to do both.
Here are the chocolates, before adding as decorations. As you can see, the colors are blue and green. I used a toothpick to sketch in the different colors on the two-toned chocolates.
Ahh, the strawberry cupcakes with cream cheese icing. These are really becoming a favorite. I didn’t want to overload with all of the blue and green, so just stuck with the standard icing color and stuck the chocolates on there are decorations.
The cake is a 9 inch 3 layer chocolate cake with chocolate icing in between the layers, covered with buttercream icing. I added the duckie and carriage for a little more decoration with the blue and green.
Here’s my favorite part of the cake…the sleeping baby topper. Yes, this is made out of solid chocolate. I mixed peanut butter wafers with light pink to get the skin tone, and used a toothpick to trace out the detail of each color. I got this mold from www.amazon.com. I was so excited when I found this mold, and couldn’t wait to try it out. Yes, that’s his little bottom peeking out of his pajamas. Cutest chocolate topper!!
The cake and cupcakes all together and ready to go! Very, very happy with how all of the chocolates turned out. This should definitely satisfy the Mama’s sweet tooth!
