Dr. Seuss Themed Cupcakes

I was recently asked to make 250 Dr. Seuss themed cupcakes for a party at Quest Academy on Wednesday evening in honor of Dr. Seuss's birthday. This is the first time I have ever made anything in bulk. It was a really fun challenge for me.

Here are a few pictures of the process and the individual cakes

288 Baked Cupcakes

All set up. It looks like there are a lot fewer cupcakes than are really there.

So these were supposed to have silly rainbow frosting, 

but, my hands were too hot and the colors melted and mixed together.

But, it was still good.

Oobleck Cupcakes. Based on the Seuss book Bartholomew and the Oobleck.

A classic story about owning up to your mistakes

They were chocolate cake with bright green "Oobleck" pastry cream filling

Thing 1 and Thing 2 

Rainbow cake with bright blue crazy hair resembling 

the "Things" from the Cat in the Hat

Green Eggs and Ham

These turned out the best by far.

Green vanilla cake with ham colored frosting

and fondant green eggs and hams on top
