Surf's Up.. Happy Birthday Doug!



Happy Birthday to Doug!
My boss loves the beach...especially surfing.  These were fun to make... a little child-like but aren't we all just a big kid at heart? 

Dark Chocolate cupackes with espresso buttercream. I used turbiano sugar for "sand". 
 I will be posting tutorials on the fondant pieces this week:
6/23 Flip Flops
     6/24 Swim Trunks
6/25 Surfboard
   6/26 Beach towel

Thank you Steph. Of all the treats I have seen, these are the most special. Its 10pm on the eve of my birthday and me and my kids are loving life enjoying these cupcakes. I do love the beach and even though I didn't get to plop myself down in the sand, I feel like I had a day at the beach. Bryce and Ciela loved them - in fact, it took them a 1/2 hour to finish them-fondant and all.
Thank you
Doug, kid-at-heart
