Hello... out there....can I get a few volunteers?


Before you say yes, I need to warn you...
I have no dishwasher.


Hummmm.... didn't think so.


Please tell me I am not the ONLY ONE who makes such a mess frosting cupcakes?
I LOVE buttercream icing but - it's just so darn messy to make and work with.

I found these cute little Mary Engelbreit napkins and thought "Now, wouldn't it be cute to make cupcakes to match".


They aren't perfect...



but...


they sure were tasty!

Those look yummy! Any cooking I do (which isn't much, LOL) always ends in a wonderful mess, and I don't have a dishwasher either.

I love it!! I will gladly clean up your kitchen if I get a couple of adorable cupcakes!

THose look so cute and so yummy!!

And I feel ya on the "no dish washer" ours is out of the kitchen while my husband lays slate underneath and before that it was broken for a few months and I just didnt feel like paying for the parts to have it fixed. So we have gotten used to acutally cleaning our own dishes by hand. Which is totally normal...so the fact that it seemed so foreign to me is quite pathetic LOL

Years ago, I baked and decorated cakes every few weeks out of enjoyment. My family complained because there was hardly a spot in the kitchen that didn't have icing on it. Eeks!

I really like your cupcakes. Those would be really cute for a summer party. If you do those again, I'd try just spreading the white icing on so the cherries wouldn't sink down. Either way, they are still very cute!
