A State Divided Calls for Sugar



It's a BIG weekend in Kentucky. In fact, "BIG" just doesn't begin to describe it. It's pretty stinking MASSIVE. 

Forever rivals The University of Kentucky and The University of Louisville will face off in the Final Four NCAA basketball tournament this weekend. It is an absolutely monumental event and you can feel the tension and excitement in the air. ESPN is calling this game "bigger than the Super Bowl." Die hard fans are brawling in dialysis clinics, and police are gearing up for student celebrations in both Lexington and Louisville. This is an incredibly historical moment in basketball history and I am thrilled to be in the middle of it all!

This calls for cupcakes!


I really wanted to make both Louisville and Kentucky themed cupcakes and post them in a split screen fashion, but I just didn't have the time. So, Louisville fans, take no offense. As a friend of mine said on Facebook, "No matter what happens on Saturday, a team from Kentucky will play for the National Championship," and that's pretty cool. Though, my Alma Mater is UK so I am kind of partial.


GO CATS!!

Hi, Ashley!

I used a white cake mix and made them blue by adding a few drops of Americolor navy blue food gel.

The icing is just a basic buttercream using the same gel.

Thanks for stopping by!
