D-day, as I'm calling it, is here! I have a weekend full of baking ahead of me, as well as a huge shopping trip to Gordon Food Supply to buy everything in bulk. My grocery list consists of 20 pounds of both flour and sugar, 25 pounds of confectioner's sugar, 68 sticks of unsalted butter, 50 eggs, over half a cup of vanilla extract, a gallon of milk, and lots of various fruits and other single specialty items. After buying all the grocery items, I have to make a stop at a local cake supply store for cupcake liners and boxes. Then the fun begins!
I already started the baking for the week- I made 2 dozen banana cupcakes with a vanilla pastry cream filling & topping for my husband's birthday yesterday and they were delicious! Definitely a favorite recipe. I have to get creative for the weekend, as one request includes zebra print frosting, and another order of 5 dozen for a bridal shower for the "Lost" television show theme. I am excited to see how everything turns out and will be posting pictures and recipes as well!
These are my banana creme cupcakes!
Cute! I love the banana slices on top :)
