NCIS: No Cupcake Is Safe

We had so much fun making these for the birthday of one of the actors of the CBS show, NCIS. A lot of time was spent researching to make sure we had every detail right! First came the "bear" agents (an idea from the client), then the characters were born along with the perfect crime scene tools. Which is your favorite?

Happy Earth Day!


Blue Cupcake certainly is a tiny player in our global economy, but we also believe that every step counts in protecting the environment. Today at the farmer's market in Century City, your cupcake purchase will be packaged in a reusable bag. Smaller than the usual grocery bag, it is just perfect for your weekly cupcake run!


B{earth} Day Cupcake Tower

I mentioned before the amazing creativity beyond every event held at The COOP in Studio City. This Earth Day themed party had all the elements to entertain the little ones, who also took home fun gardening projects and huge butterfly wings. What a creative way to celebrate a six years old birthday party!

Cupcakes with an Asian Flair

A client asked me to design unique cupcakes with Asian inspiration to offer as gifts this Valentine's Day. Many hours later, these miniature sugar pieces came to life!
"I really loved the cupcakes and the design as a whole.
I showed them to my friends and they just couldn't bear
the thought of eating them. Thank you again for the
wonderful design, its amazing!
Sheer craftsmanship".

These green tea cupcakes were created for a different occasion. You will see the tea bowl with the brush (chasen), and the tea kettle (kama).

Surfboard Cupcakes

This order was a last minute one but the tiny surfboard toppers were ready just in time to ride the vanilla frosting wave this morning! Grab your favorite and... surf's up!
"Being a huge dessert fan and a previous employee of a bakeshop, I was more than satisfied with your cupcakes. I've had my fair share of Sprinkles, Yummy Cupcakes, Big Sugar Bakeshop and plenty of others and they don't beat your custom designs and excellent taste. The filling inside was a delightful surprise and the frosting was not too sweet, not too plain but just right! Finally, the cake itself was moist and just golden enough on the outside that I fell in love with it (moisture is the key to a perfect cupcake in my eyes!) Thanks again for all your help and for letting us order at the last minute. I really appreciate all you did for us!"
