Mother's Day Brunch

Mother's Day Brunch

For Mother's Day I had my parents over for a brunch. Recognize some of the party decor ;)

Mimosas are a must for brunch. Add a little sherbet for some fun.

Homemade strawberry scones to go with the tasty mimosas.

Raspberries served in chocolate cups. Raspberries and chocolate go so well together.

You all know that limited edition cake mix's just jump into my cart. When I saw Pillsbury's Tropical Mango cake mix I had to try it. I added strawberries to the cake mix and made cream cheese strawberry frosting.

Chocolate flower cupcake topper.

Chocolate cups make great bowls for orange sherbet.

Mom's deserve to be pampered so along with the brunch I made my mom some Honey Strawberry Sugar Scrub for Mother's Day.

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day cupcakes

This post was suppose to be up much earlier today. But you know how it goes, work, come home and go for a run, eat some dinner, than this little cutie needed some lap time. This is Jasper. He's a Bombay, which are also known as lap fungus.  

On to the cupcakes!  For Mother's Day we grilled some chicken and I made homemade BBQ sauce. mmm mm tasty.  For dessert I made Chocolate Raspberry cupcakes from a recipe I found on Your Cup of Cake .
I followed the recipe exactly except I saved some of the raspberry puree and added it to the frosting. Made it extra raspberry-y.  Everyone thought they were delicious. Some even went back for seconds :)

They're even good naked!  

As raspberry season approaches, I highly recommend these Chocolate Raspberry cupcakes. 
If you make them, let me know how they turned out and if you thought they were delicious too.
