Marc's birthday

My brother's bday was on January 19th, and we had a family dinner tonight. He decided he wanted red vevet with cream cheese icing, so I obliged, but I had to also make a cake for those that did not eat red velvet. So i made them bot different. The red velvet is the blue icing, and the vanilla is the yellow icing.

MMMmmm cupcakes

Today I got an awesome (or so I thought) recipe. Well part of it turned out. The original recipe was Dark chocoalte cupcakes with peppermint Marshmallow cream filling and Swiss meringue buttercream on top. The cupcake part turned out very well (they are soooo yummy) but the peppermint thing? Not so much. It was awful! Tasted like pure butter. Ewww. Soooo I went online to search for something else, and found this other marshmallow cream filling, and this one is great. Tastes like the Little Debbie cupcakes snack filling. It's really, really good. After changing the filling, I changed the topping to my good ol' standby of chocolate buttercream icing. I added some silver dragees and voila. Yummyness.
