DVT Awareness!

March is DVT Awareness month for the healthcare world. DVT stands for Deep Vein Thrombosis, aka-blood clot. It's a very serious complication that can be easily prevented. The unit i work on held a DVT day where we decorated socks and celebrated DVT awareness. I made these DVT cupcakes to help people get into the celebration!






Spaghetti Night 2009

I had a chance to try out another Martha Stewart cake at Spaghetti Night 09 this year. This turned out to be one of my favorite cakes of all time! I used an almond cake recipe that is no-fail! I made Martha's Swiss Meringue buttercream.
For the icing, I just started the rossettes on top with the plain colored buttercream. Then, I added a little bit of green food coloring and did a few more rossettes. I kept adding more color with each line of rossettes, so it has a cool faded look. It was a really neat cake!





St. Patricks Day Cupcakes

I made these cupcakes for Germana, who was going to a St. Patricks Day Parade! They are chocolate with buttercream icing. I used a glitter gel icing for the clovers. They were a big hit!
