trip to memory lane -- my cuppy cakes

so i tried rummaging through my external drive and facebook albums in my attempt to put them all here... much as i want to tell the story for each, i pretty much forgot most of them (le sigh).

but where do i begin? ah! where else but with the sorts of cupcakes i've done since time in memoriam.

i remember i did an attempt to make smores cupcakes and luckily, my friends liked it.  one of them liked it so much that she ordered a couples of dozens from me, only to find out that she was to sell it in her condo unit (smart bitch! haha!). i didn't mind though since i thought it can just be something i'd do for extra cash plus i get to do what i love doing.  here's how they turned out.

Pink & blue

another friend asked me to bake stuff for her for her twin daughters' birthday.  i thought she was just kidding but little did i know, she was dead serious when she ordered a dozen each of pink and blue cupcakes that she'll bring to her hometown, davao.  i only had a couple of days to prepare but since i have ingredients in the cupboard at that time, i was able to pull it off in time for her flight.

oh! let me not forget my very supportive boss back then.  she was, i think, the first ones who got to taste my red velvet cupcakes and thought that it was worthy enough to be sold commercially.  she ordered red velvet by the dozens for her daughter's birthday, and for her Christmas 2010 giveaway.  

i was lucky enough to have very supportive friends.  it's either they themselves order or they refer me to their friends.  Some orders I got are for birthdays, baptisms, Christmas, etc.

 

and then there are just days when i want to try out some goodies and have my officemates munch on them since no one's gonna eat them at home.

  

  

these are just some, but there really was quite a number of orders that i didn't take pictures of any more.  but looking through these, i'd say i've come a long way since that very first batch of red velvet cupcakes i baked.  and here's hoping for a lot more in the future...
