This weekend I held a baby shower for my boss Mary, and her second little baby, a Girl! Named Elan. I made vanilla and chocolate, devil’s food cake, cupcakes with vanilla buttercream, chocolate buttercream and pink raspberry buttercream, as well as some shower finger foods. Here’s some pictures of the table with the cupcakes and food. I’ll post links to where I found the recipes for the baby shower menu below. Enjoy!

Those are adorable! What a lucky friend to have you doing the shower. I’m hosting a baby shower brunch next month and I can’t wait- mostly because of the yummy food! lol
Your table looked great as did all the yummies. Elan is a cutie & I love her name. That was very nice of you to host a party for her.
