I was asked by a friend to make bowling cupcakes this past weekend for a bowling party for her 6-year-old. She sent me this picture from the flickr album of a talented baker working under the moniker “hello naomi,” and asked if I could do something similar. I loved these, and couldn’t wait to try my hand at creating my own version of them, so I responded to the request with an exuberant “yes!” and the fun began.
She wanted chocolate, so chocolate is what she got, along with a layer of buttercream, and topped with fondant bowling accoutrements, such as…
…Bowling Balls…
have a ball.
…Bowling Pins…
pinned down.
….and Strikes.
very striking.
Throw them all together, and you’ve got a bowling party in a box (minus the ugly, smelly shoes). 😉
game on.
