My first attempts...

These are my first cupcakes! Matt, or Monkey as I sometimes refer to him, got me a cake decorating set last Christmas and I finally broke it out. These were done around the end of August, practice for the monkey cake in Sept.. They're a basic cake mix, just done to practice with the tips and a butter cream icing recipe.

And this...


...this is the monkey cake. I wish I would have outlined him in a darker brown so that the feet, arms, and tail would have shown up better. This was done for my monkey for our first anniversary. It's a peanut butter cake with butter cream icing. It's not that bad for my first cake, but I still have so much to learn!
