This post is a bit belated, seeing as the whirl and watercooler convos of the Superbowl have come and gone, but I decided to post it anyway.
We were invited to a Superbowl party on Sunday and I offered to bring cupcakes.
Of course, I couldn't just bring a regular old frosted cupcake when the option existed to make them football-themed. I found a couple images on Pinterest and tried my hand at them.
The first was simple and straightforward.
Chocolate cupcake, chocolate frosting, piped laces.
The second was a bit more elaborate and let's be honest, not as well executed. It looks a bit like a kindergartner's project, but oh well, I tried.
Can you tell what it is?
I was going for a bird's eye view of a football stadium, but the off-colored green and wavy, white lines make it look a bit more like an impressionist painting.
Oh well, still delicious.
I don't particularly care for football, but having just been to Seattle (and gone to high school with one of the players), it was fun to have a vested (and ultimately victorious) interest in one of the teams this year.
Did any of you have a particularly special (or themed) Superbowl this year?
Please, do tell.
