Yesterday night the families got together to officially celebrate my sister's engagement. It was at this beautiful manor restaurant and the food was mmmmm so good! It was nice to see his side of the family and catch up with them. I hadn't seen them in a while.
I was in charge of the favors so my mom and I devised a plan for diamond decorated cupcakes. The cupcakes were vanilla with pink buttercream icing accented with a diamond decoration on top and served in a peek-a-boo box (so you could see the diamond) with a seal and message.
They were a big hit and everyone loved the idea. I do believe I heard whispering of my soon-to-be brother in law's mom using the idea for another occasion in fact! What can I say, my family lives to inspire.
Also, since it was on my Aunt's birthday I wanted to incorporate something to celebrate that too so I used some pink striped cupcake liners I had from a present she had given me a year or so ago. They went perfectly with the pink of the icing!
My favorite part was the peek a boo box.

Maybe I'll open my own bakery some day! LOL
