ruffles & weddings

well, with kip and casey's wedding almost upon us, i figured i get to cracking on ideas for their rehearsal cupcakes! i found this idea in a magazine (thanks mom carlson!) 

so, i took a stab at it-it is really an easy piping, but trying to get my ruffles all the same (as you can see didn't always work) is what is hard. the frosting was getting harder to work with the longer i had it out! i would do one layer, put it in the fridge to harden a bit and then do another. the frosting would get too heavy and collapse the layer beneath if i didn't do it that way. 

anyways, shannon picked the cake flavor-green tea matcha and then i did my favorite and usual frosting: imbc. 

i think i will do this as a cupcake topper . . . i think it looks fancy for being so easy to do!

the top could use some work, but i have time:D
