Blueberries and More!

Blueberries!
These blueberries are part of another soapy project I am working on, and is phase two of the project.  Yesterday I made the soap for the blueberries, today is turning that soap into blueberries.  The third phase of the project will make its debut soon and photos will most definitely follow. 

Strawberries & Champagne Soap
Yesterday was a full day in the Soap Room.  Aside from the blueberry soap, I made some embeds for the Rootbeer soap idea I am working over in my head.  Pale Ale, Bay Rum, Strawberries & Champagne, and Hyacinth logs of soap were made. 

Lemon cupcake, anyone? 
The last project of the day was lemon cupcake soaps.  It ended up being a very productive day for me, and I was delighted with how everything turned out.  However, the lemon cupcakes managed to work their way through the gel phase, even though I soaped at very low temps.  Needless to say I was disappointed that the "frosting" had flattened out when I looked at them this morning.  They still look nice, just not as impressive as when they were freshly made, as shown in the photo.

350 Cupcakes Later....

CUPCAKES!!!!
Yesteray our Supervisory Union held an all day District wide Music Festival (for Grades 4-12), and I was commissioned to make cupcakes for a lunch celebration.  It was quite the project, but the kids were delighted when I rolled the cart into the room and that was reward enough for me.  After practicing all day we served the students dinner and then they made the final preparations for a free concert.
