Hello Cupcakes!!

My Co- worker Michelle got me the cutest cupcake book titled "Hello Cupcake". I'm not a huge baker but i do enjoy it when i have the time. In this book there are tons of ideas for cupcakes that "anyone" can do. They are professionals but i tried a few out. I started by making pup cupcakes. Some of our friends have dogs so i thought it would be a cute little gift. I also made kitty ones but unfortunately do not have a photo of them. here are some pics of my efforts, i promise I'll keep trying!
Chihuahua's for Ricky French Bull dogs for Mike and Anna ( they were pugs in the book but worked for this as well)
labs for Dave
I started running out of black jelly belly's so i had to improvise by using colored ones. I think they turned out okay for my first time! I'm going to make some other ones with my nieces and nephews soon too, they really liked the monkey ones ;)
