It's a Boy Cupcakes

A friend from church is having a boy and my BFF Alissa and I volunteered to make the cupcakes for the shower.  The invitation was brown and baby blue with bright colored stars, stripes and swirls.  We tried to mimic the theme.

Vanilla Cupcakes + Chocolate Buttercream Frosting were the flavors of the day.

We doubled the recipe for Vanilla Cupcakes by Joy of Baking and had to substitute a bit when I discovered one egg in my fridge vs the six I needed.  A little vegetable oil, a little milk and all is well.

The pre made, pre colored fondant from Michael's was a big help.  All in all - delicious and cute!
