What a night it was! I had spent all day in my tiny kitchen baking what turned into 280 mini cupcakes.
I made 88 Chocolate, 65 Vanilla, 60 Caramel and 67 Chocolate Guinness cupcakes. There was at least 4 lbs of each type of buttercream, which included Vanilla, Chocolate, Caramel and Irish Cream.
After i had baked all the cupcakes, i set off to work on icing all 280 cupcakes. I had ran out of room on my island and so the cupcakes took over my kitchen table. I had borrowed some linens from a friend who runs a well-established wedding decor business called Chair Flair, located here in Calgary. I even made a dummy wedding cake to showcase what i can do with cake. I had tried a new technique which required two hours or intense folding of marshmallows in between layers of fondant. Then another 2 hours of putting the whole thing together.
My husband (who operates Red Diesel Photography) was on hand to capture the entire day from baking to the finished product. In the end, it looked like a true display of sweet perfection 
There was wine, punch, coffee and some fruit to try and even out everyones taste buds. I had managed to get 14 spots filled and i couldn’t have been more pleased with the turnout and the great feedback from all that attended. The night had turned into a laughter fest by ten and got carried away till midnight. I did not mind the company and had a chance to sit down with some fabulous ladies and tell stories of love, life and sweet desserts! All in all, the 1st cake Rocket tasting party was more then a success. It was so much fun i feel like i need to get another one on the way and spread the word!
