27th Heaven
Friday, November 6th, 2009On November 4, 2009 the NY Yankees won their 27th World Series, in Game 6 at home against the Phillies.
My husband and I are long-time Yankees fans, and were also celebrating our 3rd wedding anniversary. What a night!
Today, at 11am, the city of NY is hosting a ticker tape parade for the Champions. I couldn’t resist the chance to bake a little something to help celebrate.
Cutout cookies in the shape of jerseys, honoring team captain Derek Jeter, and WS MVP Hideki Matsui. They are almost too cute to eat.
Almost.
I also experimented with some new techniques this time, for a more precise cutout shape, and a new icing, which is just as good as my old one, and a little easier to use. Thumbs up for new techniques.
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE YANKEES!
Happy Halloween!
Friday, November 6th, 2009Around the holidays, I always fall a little behind in my uploading.
However, I wanted to share these adorable Halloween cupcakes. Orange colored chocolate chip cake frosted like jack-o-lanterns, or with vanilla and chocolate, edged in spooky non-pareils.
Check out the cute pumpkin cupcake papers. The perfect touch. These were a huge hit!
