Almost WW – Surprise!

Lately, I have been totally addicted to Bakerella. She has the most amazing cupcakes, cake pops and goodies you could ever imagine.  I wish I was there to taste each and every goodness. So since I can’t be there, I tried to be Ms. Bakerella for several hours and made this:

(Cake Pops)

and this:

(Cupcake Bites)

It took me about 4 hours from start to finish.  It wasn’t that difficult to make but since it was my first time making them, it took awhile.  It was a lot of work but also a lot of fun.  She makes it easy because she has great tutorials.  I think I’ll make these again real soon.

I decided to make these scrumptious treats especially for my sister’s 28th birthday yesterday. I wanted to surprise her with these treats. She had planned to take the day off so she can relax but I wanted to cook her dinner, make her cupcakes, make her the cake pops & the cupcake bites and bring it to her for her very special day.  At first, I felt like I was imposing her relaxing day but she can relax another day, right? I won’t be able to see her for two weeks because she’ll be away on business.

Anyway, when we got there, she had no idea I was bringing any food or even a cake so she was definitely surprised and happy we were there. Good thing because I thought she would be a little upset being that I didn’t call her to let her know I was “stopping” by.

She was indeed very happy we were there.  It was like the “party” came to her.  It was my grandmother, my mom, my other two sisters and us (me and my 3 kiddies).  We had a blast.  Talking, eating, goofing around, surfing the web and eating some more.

Overall, it turned out to be a great day. We all had a wonderful time celebrating my wonderful sister’s birthday.  She’s a great person, great friend, and of course the best sister in the world!! I wish I could give her the world because she’s that great!

Hope you had fun Jess ;)! Love ya!
