The force is strong with these - Star Wars cupcakes, take 2!

You might remember the original Star Wars cupcakes. I made those for my husband's birthday, before Stuffed Cakes was even an idea - let alone a company. They were one of reasons I started thinking about starting this company and within a month I was taking classes and honing my skills. I look at them now and realize just how far I and Stuffed Cakes has come in one little year.

I loved having the chance to re-work these cupcakes. They have always been popular, but I knew what I wanted to do better. I wanted to combine the use of fondant with frosting to give these characters some whimsy, yet refine them. I couldn't be happier of how they turned out - and more importantly everyone loved them!

Tomorrow my baby, Stuffed Cakes, turns ONE! It's funny, I think I am reminiscing about this year as much as I do each year when our kiddo has a birthday. I'm thinking about all the good times of the year, all the speed bumps and what I have learned as Stuffed Cakes' "mom." I've nurtured this "newborn" and have learned what it needs to thrive. I can't wait to see what the next year brings. May the force be with us!

Boxed up and ready to go!

I can't help but hum the Imperial March.
