Safari Theme Baby Shower Cupcakes

I got to admit that ever since the first day of 2012, I have not blogged as much as I wish.  There are few reasons, but the major reason is my full-time job has been keeping me extremely busy these days.  It seems that it is slowing down a little bits; I could have more spare time to blog and share sweet things I saw, I made, I tasted with all of you.

Last weekend, I made some very cute and tasty cupcakes for my customer.  Since the expected parents-to-be don't want to find out the gender of their future baby.  The mom of the mommy-to-be picked a very neutral theme for the baby shower, a Safari theme it is!  I think this is a beyond wonderful idea.  Since they have a strict budgets for the party, I suggested to make some matching paper animal cupcake picks to go with the theme.  That way it could lower the cost, but still make the cupcakes stand out.  The customer loved the idea.  She also like some tropical favors to go with the safari theme.  After our consultation, I suggested pina colada cupcake with fluffy coconut buttercream frosting, chocolate cupcakes with dark and milk chocolate frosting and the last but not the least was banana cupcakes with creamy honey frosting.

Everything turned out wonderful and I am so glad my customer, the future parents-to-be and their guests loved everything.  They told me they ever saved the cute animal cupcake picks to show their baby in future.

*PS:  If you are interested in these cute Safari theme cupcake picks, please go to my Etsy shop.  I have the same set of 12 cupcake toppers ($10.00usd not included delivery fee) for sale on my shop.

I got my idea from the invitation.
