Birthday Cupcakes

I did these birthday cupcakes last week. They were so much fun to make. I did red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting, and vanilla bean cupcakes with buttercream. My sweetie asked for bright yellow and blue because they were taking them down to the beach. This is a return client and a friend of theirs also ordered a dozen cupcakes just to eat herself because she thinks they are delicious! So I received my first order of sweets just to eat, not for a party. These I was asked to just ice in the same colors as the birthday order. I decorated these with white chocolate. The butterflies and flowers are piped white chocolate with sliver dragee accents. The cream cheese I was afraid would not hold the weight of the butterflies so I just decorated those with the flowers and they turned out to be my favorites. I dusted them with glitter and they were done!
