Sweet Surprise: Red Velvet Cuppie Truffles from Bakerella!
Today we received a sweet and completely unexpected gift in the mail from our favorite domestic goddess, Bakerella: mouthwatering red velvet cake truffles...decorated to look like our own Cakespy mascot, L'il Cuppie! Seems that Mlle. Bakerella must have enjoyed her Iron Cupcake prize, a custom piece depicting her exciting segment a few months ago on the Martha Stewart Show:
This little Cuppie made a big mess...
This little Cuppie learned to draw...
This little Cuppie went for the good stuff...
This little Cuppie liked what he saw...
This little Cuppie found Jesus...
This little Cuppie met some pigs...
This little Cuppie saw the Space Needle (but got a little melted by the sun)...
This little Cuppie does not like skinny chicks...
This little Cuppie got worried...and uh-oh, we haven't seen him since.
This little Cuppie got greedy...and ended up all alone.
Of course you also might like to see her sweet review of our friendship and the project here!

OMG the guy with the smooshed-in cheek frosting, painting a big mess...my favourite!
Those are just adorable, I would feel sad to eat them, but I bet their soooo delicious!
What an adorably delicious treat! I just made these and mine are nowhere as cute. My personal favorite is the no skinny chicks cuppie.
I love your drawings! You're in Seattle? Me too! :) I work in Belltown.
Have a good night!
Those are truly just the cutest little cuppies ever! What a perfect marriage between Bakerella's baking magic and your drawing magic! (I see a business partnership in the offing. . . .I'm first in line at your new boutique!) :)
I kept reading this like the rhyme, "This little piggy goes to market..." I don't think I could have had the heart to eat those cute little truffles! I bet they tasted great though!
You are hilarious! I'm so happy that you liked them. I'm just sad that I couldn't be there to play, too!
I love the artist one and the mirror one and the space needle one and the jesus one… wait, I love them all.
They are very mischievous. They should be punished. I say eat them.
I heart them so much.
You two are the cutest (I mean you and Bakerella, because of course there are more than two of the adorable cuppies, ahem)!! Can't wait to see what's next.
can't wait to see her next move
This post is hilarious! I just found you through Bakerella and now adding you immediately to my google reader! :) I can't wait to read through your blog!!!

Bakerella: You're too wonderful! I can't even say how delighted I was, not only with the creations (the expressions are perfect!! PERFECT!) but with the taste as well! Mr. Cakespy wants me to say he gives his official "thumbs up" too...although he had a moment where he said "I can't do it!".
