Cupcake #299 **sold**

A few weeks ago the Atlanta Cupcake Factory received a call to design some cupcakes for a staff meeting at TBS. The Conan team was coming to town, and wanted some cupcakes to celebrate! This was the fabulous Conan cupcake they came up with, we've put it on a red carpet background. Tonight is the first episode of the new show, and this would be a perfect gift for your favorite Conan O'Brian fan! Enjoy!

Cupcake #281 **sold**

Soft, neutral, understated color is the story of this cupcake. Whites, cream, a little warm beige...but look a little closer. Do you see the subtle speckles of almost violet, or the pale wash of yellow, and the luminous red reflecting in the shadow side of the marshmallow? The more you look, the more you see. The background was kept especially neutral, the color of bleached seashells, just to allow the cupcake to shine. But don't let the color fool you, this little number came from the Atlanta Cupcake Factory, and was pure mouthwatering bliss. The cake itself is pumpkin, the icing had a touch of caramel I think, and the top? A toasted mini marshmallow. A wonderful taste of autumn, enjoy!

Mmmm, chocolate & coconut topped with a happy bumblebee. Why do I think he's happy? Wouldn't you be if you were sitting in chocolate!? The background is a bright sunny yellow with some very subtle polka dots. The model for today's painting came from the Atlanta Cupcake factory, our favorite stop! This little bee would bring a little sunshine to any kitchen, enjoy!

Cupcake #238 **sold**

A southern favorite, a red velvet cupcake. This one is topped with a whirl of lemon icing and a sweet candy heart. A great gift to tuck away for your sweetheart! The background is a pumpkin orange, which makes this a variation on an analogous color scheme. Red, yellow and orange all sit next to each other on the color wheel, and are therefore analogous colors. This one looks great paired with #236, give it a try!

Cupcake #233 **sold**

Today's cupcake is pure summer! Strawberry lemonade, complete with a little straw for garnish. We actually taste tested this one, and the lemon icing was simply marvelous. The pink, yellow and blue completes a pastel version of the primary triad which makes for a beautifully balanced painting. A cold winter would be no match for this sunny cupcake, enjoy!

Cupcake #201 **sold**

Today's cupcake features a little bee perched upon a bed of coconut. Scott, a graduate of University of Georgia, can hear his fellow Georgia alumni grumbling about the symbolism here, but hey, we do the best we can! The background is a dusky purple to compliment the yellows. The schedule of the daily cupcake will be a little random for the next few days as we will be "on the road again," but we'll still be putting them up every day! Stay tuned cupcake fans!

Cupcake #190

We stopped by the Atlanta Cupcake Factory on the way home from setting up my booth at the Virginia Highland Summerfest yesterday, and this is one of the yummies we brought home, The peanut butter cup cupcake! Dark chocolate, a big scoop of peanut butter icing, topped with a sprinkle of chocolate, and a peanut butter cup. All surrounded by what I can only describe as '57 Chevy turquoise! Enjoy, and if you're in Atlanta, stop by Summerfest!
