Artful Cupcakes

Two things to remember: 1) We eat with our eyes first and 2) Presentation is everything. In the photo above, the layout may look random, but it’s by design. Touches of red and blue draw your eye across the composition. Dark chocolates contrast with colorful tart berries floating upon waves of buttercream icing. Subtle variations in the pastel blue wrappers serve as a perfect backdrop. Let’s see what’s creatively possible…
