Beautiful Cupcakes

This weekend I created beautiful cupcakes for a co-worker who requested my services - thank you! 
Chocolate cupcakes with Cream Cheese Buttercream. Simple and elegant. No added sparkle required.



*When packaging cupcakes, I normally use cardboard boxes but find that the cardboard seems to absorb the oil from the icing - which doesn't look every nice. I wanted to find plastic containers but had a hard time finding exactly what I wanted online without having to order from the States. When I was searching for other ideas, it was mentioned that you can go to your local bakery and ask for some of theirs. Since I was on a time crunch, that is what I did and it worked perfectly! And inexpensive too.

I printed off my labels.


And packaged up the cupcakes.


I love the look of them packaged.

Hope they were well received at her party! I enjoyed making them.
