Sprinkles NYC: How to frost cupcakes

I was at a cupcake decorating party with Candace Nelson at Sprinkles Cupcakes at around this time last Friday. It definitely was a sweet start to the weekend!

Sprinkles Cupcakes founder (and Food Network’s “Cupcake Wars” show judge) Candace Nelson was such a gracious hostess. I had already heard a lot of great things about Sprinkles cupcakes from my West Coast friends and when I went to LA for an event last year, I remember loving the Sprinkles cupcakes that were a part of my gift bag. The new (NYC) location is different, but the cupcakes are still the same…delicious. My kids enjoyed decorating and eating the cupcakes in the store’s party room. Candace was even kind enough to show me how to frost a cupcake. (Pardon the background noise from all of the little ones who were enjoying the party!)

On the way home, Sean said, “I didn’t know that you were friends with a cupcake star!” Well I’m not, but it was sweet to see him so easily impressed.
