This adorable cupcake vegetable garden is for my friend Anna K who is turning the big 4 0 today!  Her husband Kent called and asked if Courtney and I would make a cake for her birthday and so originally we were going to do this same design on a fondant cake but then some things happened around here that made a cake impossible to do because of the time factor so we did cupcakes instead which actually came out really cute.  The cupcakes are a dark chocolate cake mix and then I just followed the instructions on the box, substituting buttermilk for the water.  I made 2 batches of cupcakes and in 1 of the batches I stirred in a bag of Nestle Toll House Mint and Dark Chocolate Morsels.  I frosted them with our favorite buttercream icing and then rolled the tops in Oreo crumbs.  We made all the veggies out of fondant which I think are so adorable!  Happy Birthday Anna K!
