Savvy Cupcake Of The Week~Monkey A-Rounds


Savvy Cupcake Recipe Of The Week~Monkey A-Rounds


 I am designing, baking and prepping this week for my best friends son's first birthday! Mason is having a monkey party, so I thought I should share these adorable monkey cupcakes that I am going to bake for his party!!

Picture and recipe via Fun Stuff Cupcakes



Monkey A-Round Cupcakes
1 package Chocolate cake mix
Desired color food coloring
44 chocolate disks
Small black jelly beans or chocolate chips
Black string licorice

Preheat oven to 350 and mix all ingredients, bake for 21 to 23 minutes and let cool.

1. Frost cupcakes with chocolate frosting

2. Pipe circle of yellow frosting in center of each chocolate for ears and for face. Use jelly beans for eyes, cut licorice for nose and mouth.

3. Use toothpick or knife to pull up frosting for hair.



Buttercream Frosting

1 cup butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon meringue powder
1 tablespoon milk
1 package powdered sugar

Beat butter, vanilla, and salt, next add meringue powder and milk. Gradually add powdered sugar, beat at high speed until frosting is light and fluffy! Next you can stir in food coloring until you get your desired colors.



I am also going to be baking matching monkey cake pops and sugar cookies. Candice will be designing his adorable monkey cake!!



I am also designing matching monkey cupcake toppers, favor tags, and banners...here is a little sneaky peeky!

Ok it wont let me upload the photo UGH!!
Don't worry I will share a ton of photos of the party next week...so fun!!

Happy baking, if anyone decides to bake these adorable cupcakes I would love to see pictures!!

Cayden's Camo Party

WOW I can't believe how long it has been since I last blogged!! It has been a very busy few months for us, we just moved and we are finally settled and getting back into the swing of things.  Now that it is summer time I am not running around like a crazy women trying to get one kid to baseball practice the other kiddo to baseball and or tutoring...you all know the how it goes! The typical soccer or in this case baseball mom that pretty much lives out of her car lol! So I should have posted my son's 6th birthday about 2 months ago but hey better late then never. My son Cayden wanted a camo/camping party at the park, he was sooo excited and had a BLAST!!




I had a blast designing all of Cayden's SAVVY Party Designs, he helped me design everything...he had to have it all camo!

He LOVED his camo cookies made by the fabulous Erin of Whip It Good Cookies
She did a fabulous job designing his camo cookies and they tasted AMAZING!!



Of course the FABULOUS cake was made by Candice one of her many SAVVY DESSERTS!! She did such a wonderful job designing his cake. Lots of time and heart went into his cake, Candice is soooo wonderful!!




I got lucky and found these perfect camo baskets from the dollar store, so I filled them with goodies add camo thank you favor tags and they made perfect camo party favors!

I had some fun Kamo Kones designed from Gen of  Celebration Today...The Superchick way! 


Cayden blowing out his candles...LOVE that little dude sooo much!!


Family birthday photo, just missing Cody he was off making a mess in the sand box!!


Cayden had such a blast playing with all of his friends and loved all of his fabulous camo yummies, decor, and gifts. Now he wants me to design a camo room for him UGH its never ending!!
