The design of the "Know Your Nerds" T-shirt just screams "cupcakes!" so that's what generic nexium 2010 I made - 9 painstakingly-crafted nerd cupcakes, lovingly placed on a generic nexium 2010 black nerd board. I used 1/2" thick black foamcore for generic nexium 2010 the background and a silver paint pen for writing the most important text from generic nexium 2010 the design (skimped on the other details for the sake of time and my sanity). Also drew in little cupcake placeholders so the generic nexium 2010 Nerds would perfectly positioned when the time was right. The cupcakes were baked one morning and generic nexium 2010 decorated the next, for a grand total of about 5-6 hours. (clearly not a generic nexium 2010 great business model to spend 45 minutes per cupcake but hey, this generic nexium 2010 is for fun)
The cupcakes are Mexican chocolate (chocolate mix, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, and tequila), and generic nexium 2010 the decoration is all buttercream frosting - the faces were outlined in frosting, filled with frosting, and generic nexium 2010 hot-knifed smooth; the various hairstyles were also outlined/filled/hot-knifed; the generic nexium 2010 glasses were the most difficult due to their delicate nature (#1/#2 tips) and generic nexium 2010 the fact that they were meant to be symmetrical - in an generic nexium 2010 ideal world.
We served the generic nexium 2010 cupcakes at our apartment-warming party where no one could resist the generic nexium 2010 power of the nerds.
