Something new & Something old

You guys! I found a new hobby. Well, its always has been my favorite hobby, but I didn't realize how much i loving doing this till recently.. Lets just say a month ago, I bought myself a decorating tip tools with my birthday money. And it has been the best thing that I've ever done and wished that I have done it a long time ago. I love to bake and decorate as well. I guess I didn't realize that I have a talent for it till recently. It has been so much fun to play with my decorating tool set. One night, my mom came home with some tubs of frostings. She said, "Vanessa, I got you some frosting that you can use to practice with." Ever since that night, I haven't been able to put that decorating to stop. Well, I try to decorate a cake or cupcakes once a week. I have finally figured out to make my own frosting. And it has been so fun. :)I would spend sometime on youtube on how to decorate cakes and cupcakes and finally put that learning to use. :) so enjoy. Hopefully it doesn't make you too hungry. :P (oh i even got the muffin pans for my birthday a long time ago! thanks mom &dad... its still the best bday gift ever)

I made this for  our big FHE and use monsters as the theme. Since the next day was going to be halloween. It was so much fun!! And of course so yummy. My favorite feedback from the cupcake was stevie's respond. He said, Auntie neyney these cupcakes are delicious. I don't really like frostings but i really like this one." that made me smile.. maybe he said that because he is eating monsters and theres nothing better than you being the monster to the monster. :P 

And after ten attempts, i finally was able to make a rose! :D 

I also made Joshua's birthday cake. It was pretty yummy but I learned a lot from this attempt. It doesn't look pretty but not too bad for the first try. 

This is also my first try in mixing two colors as well. The gray didn't turn out the way i wanted it but the pink was my favorite look. Im learning a lot as I try to make a goal to work on this talent. 

 Heres my second attempt on the cake. I guess I seem pretty happy how it turned out. i kinda liked the colors that i put on the cake.. at first it was looking ugly and then i decided to mix the yellow and orange and red together and it turned out to be pretty. it looked like a sunset on the cake. Baking has been so fun and the weather has been perfect for me to go on a baking spree. :)
