Cupcakes for a champ!
Posted to All Pastries, Cupcakes on Thursday, April 24th, 2008.We were so excited to be able to create a cake and cupcakes for tennis champion Maria Sharapova this past Tuesday. Tag Heuer threw her a big bash to celebrate her 21st birthday at Tenjune in NYC. We decorated a 2 tier top cake w/black fondant, gumpaste roses and orchids in bright pink and orange, lots of crystal, and of course 21 hot pink candles!
The cupcakes were all vanilla w/shades of pink and orange (vanilla) frosting. Some had sugar discs featuring “MS” and “21″ and some had funky flowers in pink, black and orange. To finish off the stand, we added lots of crystal butterflies fluttering around… It seemed fitting since the room was encircled with beautiful cherry blossom branches.
Check out some pics…and even a video!
