Checkers anyone?

August 30, 2011

Our last summer birthday and Reid is turning 6.

Checkers it is.

I found a mold for these pieces and used Mordens white and milk chocolate to fill them.

He’s not a fan of chocolate so I went with vanilla cupcake and buttercream icing.

We then headed off to Tinker Town amusement park with some friends and cousins to celebrate.

It’s okay he didn’t even finish his cupcake, I know he was just soaking in the moment.

It was a hot day and the buttercream icing managed to hold up great in a cooler bag.

Brothers enjoying some rides together, Priceless.

Happy Birthday Reid, I hope you felt sooo special and loved on your day.
