Beagle Momma turned thirty on April 27^th and threw a “Champagne and Cupcakes” party at her house to celebrate!

Her cupcake assortment included Earl Grey, Margarita, Strawberry Cheesecake and vanilla cupcakes!

Earl Grey cupcakes

The Earl Grey cupcakes are infused with Earl Grey tea leaves, topped with a lemony Earl Grey butter icing. I decorated them with a piped dark chocolate “30″.

The Margarita cupcakes are baked with lime juice and tequila, topped with a bright green lime and tequila butter icing, decorated with a half-slice of lime and a sprinkle of sea salt.

The vanilla cupcakes are topped with a fluffy white vanilla butter icing and decorated with a piped dark chocolate “30″.

The strawberry cheesecake cupcakes have a whole strawberry and a sweetened cream cheese secret centre and are topped with cream cheese icing. These were also decorated with a piped dark chocolate “30″.

The glittery sugarpaste “A” is also edible!

Lets just say it was rough and leave it at that.

I didn’t even photograph everything I did! I did a LOT of baking including a beta test of red velvet brownies, a few deliveries, had several people collect their orders from my house, and I had great fun doing a bit of a cupcake decorating demo at a bachelorette party on Sunday afternoon! The demo was good fun and an awesome experience for me to learn from.

I need to make them more red, and even though the recipe doesn’t include it I think they need nuts and perhaps raspberries or something…

This coming week is going to be just as crazy, if not more so! I am going to have to plan very carefully… Thank you to my customers who were willing to change the delivery or collection dates of their orders! I can’t tell you how much your patience means to me!

These chocolate cupcakes have a fudge secret centre and the vanilla cupcakes have a creme caramel secret centre- they were topped with pink and white vanilla butter icing and a sprinkle of glitter and decorated with an assortment of sugarpaste pearls, flowers and butterflies.

These red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese icing were decorated with red, pink and white 100s & 1000s for a little girl’s 11^th birthday!
