Bowling Birthday!

Happy Birthday Ken! These are French Toast Bacon cupcakes with a Maple Syrup frosting with crispy bacon bits on top for that extra crunch, also known as a breakfast and savory cupcake! And yes, I did say bacon, REAL BACON! Ken is the master of bowling, and so my work decided to take him out bowling for his birthday and see him in action! I made bowling balls with sun strike marks, bowling pins, bowling shirts, and bowling shoes all out of fondant. I recently got these edible ink markers and boy does it make decorating super fast and easy! The frosting has maple syrup in it so it has more of a runny consistency, but boy does it taste yummy! =) I am proud to have made my first savory cupcake, but I am even more proud for scoring a strike during our bowling game today!!! Yay!! Once again, Happy Birthday Ken! I hope your day is striking!!!

Bowling Humor:
- Why did the bowling pins refuse to fall? Because they were on strike!
How was your bowling game, dear?” asked Jack’s wife Tracy. “Well, I was bowling well, but my eyesight’s gotten so bad I couldn’t see where the ball went.” “But you’re seventy-five years old, Jack!” admonished his wife, “Why don’t you take my brother Scott along?” “But he’s eighty-five and doesn’t even bowl anymore,” protested Jack. “But he’s got perfect eyesight. He could watch your ball,” Tracy pointed out. The next day Jack bowled with Scott looking on. Jack bowled too along jack. “Do you see it?” asked Jack. “Yes,” Scott answered. “Well, where is it?” yelled Jack, peering up the green. “I forgot.”

  1. These cupcakes definitely tasted AMAZING! It was the perfect blend of sweet and salty, and the crunky bacon was a surprising treat. Great combination and loved the creativity. =)
