Kiki!

Marina!

Twist!

As I discovered after doing research for an upcoming Fresh Beat Band cupcake party, this television show has Preschoolers losing their hair bows and loosening their shoelaces!!  A customer requested cupcakes rendering a design around her daughter’s favorite show on NickJr., The Fresh Beat Band.

My daughter is ten years old.  NickJr was the favorite channel many years ago.  I haven’t seen a Dora the Explorer or Backyardigans episode since Shrek saved Fiona from the tower guarded by a fire-breathing dragon!

I watched one episode and I immediately wanted to snap my daughter back into a toddler suit!  The Fresh Beat Band is colorful. I absolutely love the pistachio, tangerine, purple, maroon, turquoise, yellow, and lime colors dancing around with this colorful cast!

The customer wanted vanilla and sweet potato cake as the two flavors for two dozen cupcakes.  While I feel like sweet potato is not a very kid-friendly cake flavor, I understand that customers want what they want…and sweet potato cake is one of my favorite flavors.  I made my own cupcake toppers of the Fresh Beat Band logo for the vanilla cupcakes.  Then decorated them with colorful pearl nonpareils.  The sweet potato cupcakes were adorned with fondant figures symbolizing the cast, the guitar=Kiki, the headphones=Twist, the drum & sticks=Marina, and the keyboard keys=Shout.

Accidents are a baker’s best friend!

Sometimes the best treats started off as pure mishaps…insert expletive…and then walla, it’s not so bad!  It’s actually fantastic!

I made a smash cake for my little cousin’s birthday.  Typical 6″ round, buttercream, Elmo design.  And then in the 11th hour I had this marvelous idea to make cake pops for the kids in attendance.  Elmo cake pops…sans red candy melts, I decided to turn my white candy melts red with food coloring.  Well, let’s just say my inexperience with candy melts and cake pops, led me to renig on the idea!  The candy melts were anything but melted, more like a gunk of hot clay.  Tasted pretty good though.  I started rolling red balls and decided to make Elmo candies!

How do I order the sexy cupcakes collection for Valentine’s Day?

Leopard bra and Bootylicious cupcakes

The Sexy Cupcakes collection is a limited edition and intricately, designed cupcake.  Due to the tedious detailing of the design, it is unavailable for purchase a la carte, or separately.  (Hey, I put a lot of work into that booty!)  In order to receive these one-of-a-kind creations you must purchase them as the Red & Sexy cupcake package ($35, does not include shipping charge).  This package includes – Valentine’s Red Velvet 9 count and the leopard bra & bootylicious cupcakes which will make it a dozen. 

Order them online now at www.keshajobakes.com, and click on the Holiday Special tab,  if you want them for your boo in time for Valentine’s Day.  Please provide your boo’s name in the shipping details for the custom tat’ on the back of the bootylicious cupcake.  This is the perfect way to say “Happy Valentine’s Day, boo.”

My cupcakes are baked on the same day they are shipped to ensure freshness.
