Super Hero's for a Super Boy!

Happy Birthday to a Super Boy, Aiden!!!! And what's better than some SUPER Hero cookies to help him celebrate his 6th Birthday!!! I have to admit, I feel a bit out of practice......and I'm not really happy with how these turned out, but they were a gift for me to give so that made it okay :) I strive for perfection and not happy with the "imperfections"!!

We know all about Captain America in our House. One of Trevor's favorites. And it just so happens that Aiden was Captain America for Halloween last year.

 Batman!

 And can't forget Spiderman!

Happy Baking. 

I'm thinking about starting some Halloween cookies soon!

 It's my favorite holiday!

Happy Birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to me!!

This weekend I will celebrate my 37th Birthday! Not really to excited about celebrating being another year older...but who is except children right? I haven't had a chance to make cookies in about a month, and finally had time. This was the PERFECT excuse!

Lila Loa gave me the idea for the balloons.Very simple polka dots but I just loved them. 

 I found inspiration for the cakes and hates on Flickr HERE. I loved all the details!

 A girls got to make her own cookies, right?

Happy Baking,

Trevor's 6th Birthday

For Trevor's Birthday that was Thursday, he was very specific on the treats he wanted to take to school. He requested Oreo cupcakes with blue icing. And a wafer cookie on top. Love a little boy that knows what he wants! And that was simple enough to make. Just required crushed Oreo cookies.....

A box of yellow cake mix.

And wafer cookies.

Very simple. And my little helper had a great time smashing up the oreos for me! We put them in the cupcakes and the icing. So very rich!

Yum....look at all those oreos in the batter!

Cupcakes rose nicely!

Because there were crushed cookies in the icing too, I couldn't "pipe" the icing like I wanted. I tried but it got clogged in the tips so I just had to spread it on top!

 

The kids got to enjoy his treats after lunch. They sat outside under a tree and sang Happy Birthday to Trevor. 

 

It was sure fun for me to see all the kids enjoying the treats. It was a great Birthday for Trevor!

Happy Baking!
