Perry's Blog

Hey all! Welcome to my last baking blog post, congrats on making it this far!! I have spent this week thinking about how exactly I wanted to end of this fun Genius Hour Project, but was not able to settle on any singular idea.

Just a few days ago I got an order request to make party favours for a little boy's first birthday. His mom reached out to me on Instagram and said that she needed a lot of individually wrapped cupcakes. Normally, I would have checked my schedule or hesitated taking on such a large order, but this time I did not. I can confirm that for the last weekend in March, I will be in the kitchen all day so that I can bake, decorate, and package 100 cupcakes!  Luckily the cupcakes are fairly simple to make: 50 chocolate and 50 vanilla cupcakes, no allergies, white vanilla American buttercream, and mini star sprinkles. I just have to order the single cupcakes boxes and find some blue and gold sprinkl...
