Naughty Nautical Cupcakes

My sister's best friend recently got married. For her bachelorette, my sister and some of her very talented friends put together a Naughty Nautical Bachelorette.

Place Settings at the Tables

I was asked to come up with some themed cupcakes for the day. This was the first time I was baking not just for the enjoyment, but on a request from someone else and for an occasion  I was both petrified and excited beyond words. To add to this was the fact that I needed to make them on a tight budget and, a small detail I found out only a week before the event, I needed to make over 40 cupcakes!

Welcome Drinks, Cupcakes and a Farewell Message in a Bottle for Each Guest

I made chocolate cupcakes with a plain buttercream and made the decorations from fondant. I was very happy with the way that they turned out: they looked good and were delicious!
