My newest cupcake that I have been baking is perfectly fitting for the cool evenings and mornings that fall has brought to us . . . pumpkin! \u00a0I had high hopes of growing my own, but after planting, fertilizing and watering my beloved pumpkin seeds, the season proved to be too short. \u00a0I have been left buying my pumpkins from the store. \u00a0Fail.<\/p>\n

Oh well, there is always next year! \u00a0Except our brand new house (yes, we bought a house!) doesn’t have room for much of a garden. \u00a0BUT, I would love to get a little strip of dirt where I could grow some carrots, beets and peas. \u00a0I’m good at growing those \ud83d\ude42 \u00a0obviously it would have to have a GIANT deer fence.<\/p>\n

Since my growing pumpkin test this year was such a failure (they did bloom . . . just not until September!), I have had to create my own pumpkins out of fondant!<\/p>\n

They are super quick, easy and most importantly CUTE! \u00a0Check out the video tutorial on how to do these on our YouTube channel. \u00a0Hope you like it!<\/p>\n
