Family Cupcake Wars!

Meet our contestants:

Girl-12 years old, Boy-12 years old, and Little Boy-8 years old.

They were being judged on taste and decoration.

The theme was Valentine's!

Little Boy decided to make a yellow cake, with banana extract,

topped with a buttercream frosting

and for decorations- Lego bricks and mini-figures! 

The reason he chose Legos - "Well, I LOVE Legos! 

His original idea was to make jello bricks and mini-figures,

but they were too wiggly and so he made both Legos out of chocolate.

This is a happy little boy =)

He also made chocolate hearts for the mini-figures to hold!

After much hard work, I believe he was quite pleased with his cupcakes.

(The Lego mini-figures are holding chocolate hearts!)

Boy, made a brownie, cupcake, with store-bought

icing and decorations were....

a mess! Sea creatures and Christmas mixed!

My son told me that he didn't want to see either of his

siblings loose, so he entered to loose so they wouldn't have to.

He is my sweet boy!

My Girl made a chocolate cupcake filled with homemade truffles, 

topped with peanut butter frosting.

For the decorations she melted chocolate and wrote out

'hugs,' love,' and made heart shapes.
