Happy Birthday Marlene!  These are for you!  Courtney and Courtney’s friend Jaren and I made these cupcakes for our friend Marlene who loves panda bears.  (We made the panda bear graduation cake for her too.)  The idea comes from Karen Tack and Alan Richardson’s cookbook called “Hello, Cupcake!” – love it!  So much fun to make!  The cupcakes are “Vanilla Cupcakes” from the same cookbook and you can find them on the blog under that name.

The blog has been slow lately, I’m still working on that movie and will be until around mid March so the posts will be sporadic at best.  No time for baking, bummer!
