YummyYummy Sweetheart Cakes!


After 8 years.. 
Valentines day doesn't hold the same 
highschool novelty it did before.
...but there are perks...

Like yet another reason to BAKE.

We all know how much


I also just bought myself a late Bday present:
 A 25 piece decorating set!
...I couldn't WAIT to give it a try...

Take a look at the tasties we are enjoying at the PocketLego Home!

 Sweetheart Cupcakes!

Each cupcake is the same bright color as the heart that is iced onto the top! I even took requests from the household for "Sweetheart notes" :)

*The ones that seem vulgar were not intended as such but as in the cupcake itself. Like in Alice & Wonderland. *















My hubby requested the caterpillar...
God if I know Why.
...Cause he's strange...


 I used a basic box of food coloring 
(Red, Yellow, Blue, Green)
for all my cake & icing. 
Here are the drop numbers for the same 
wonderful colors that I ended up with!!

For 1package White cake mix = (WCM) 
For 1can White icing = (WI)

PRETTY PURPLE
 WCM = 24 RED, 16 BLUE
WI =12 RED, 8 BLUE
 
ORANGE SUNSET
 WCM = 50 YELLOW, 8 RED
WI = 12 YELLOW, 4 RED

TEAL
 WCM = 10 BLUE, 2 GREEN
WI = 6 BLUE, 4 GREEN

MINT GREEN
 WCM = 9 GREEN, 3 YELLOW
WI = 6 GREEN, 2 YELLOW

DUSTY ROSE
 WCM = 12 RED, 4 BLUE
WI = 6 RED, 2 BLUE

SUMMER SKY
 WCM =10 BLUE

Have fun, make a mess & enjoy!
