Delilah's bday party pics
Party was a success today, but I'm beat. Here's some pics of the festivities and birthday girl.
Decor/Desserts:
Besides the wonderful cake pops Coley made, I made these cupcakes and the tower.

Here you can see some of the decor and desserts:

I also made the cake, but didn't really plan on what I was going to do until I started doing it. As you may be able to tell, I didn't plan the wording real well. And I am not cut out for writing on cakes.

Cake time - no food on the face in the first post, but warning for Cali not to look past that one.

Wow. Those are some ambitious looking cupcakes. Awesome. I have no interest in making anything that looks that complicated but I'd sure like to eat them.
And your daughter is adorable.
I love the family picture! You guys look great and she looks like she had such a great time.
I'm also quite impressed with your cupcakes.

Aww, I love her with the Cookie stuff. Cookie was always my favorite.
Great job on the cupcakes. I think the cake turned out fine, still miles better than anything I can do.

Sometimes I wonder if scientists have never seen a sci-fi movie before. "Oh yes, let's create a super species of deer. NOTHING COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG." I wonder if State Farm offers a Zombie Deer Attack policy. -CaliopeSpidrman
happy birthday delilah! all the desserts look scrumptious. i'm getting a special kick out of the Flying V formation those cupcakes are doing. I think you're selling yourself short on the cake. i think it looks good!
hope she had a happy day, looks like she really did!

Thanks everyone! We had fun and I'm pretty sure Delilah did as well.
I'd be flattered. To make it easy I actually bought these eyes online http://layercakeshop.com/index.php/Shop/Decorating/Jumbo-Royal-Icing-Eyes.html
I know on Annie's Eats she makes them out of fondant, but having never worked with fondant I didn't want to try.

Aw, everything looks great!
I can't believe she is one.
For less then ten cents a day, you can feed a hungry child.
Those big bird cupcakes (and all of them, I am just particularly fond of the bird) are absolutely amazing. So adorable!
She looks so hilarious in the last pic. Bow down to me and give me presents, peons!

Awesome job! I am jealous of your talents. It all looks great and like Delilah had so much fun.
Like Boxer, I may rip you off. I mentioned on flikr that I've been thinking Sesame street or Cookie Monster. Both are big loves right now. Now I'm afraid mine will look like a poor copy!
