Purple Cupcakes to Match My New Logo

Last Thursday night I decided to make some cupcakes to give to Lauren, the graphic designer who did my logo, when I met her the next day to get the cd of images. I knew I wanted them to be purple to match the logo, and I had some some purple liners that I absolutely love.

The baking process itself was sort of a debacle. First I took all the baking stuff to Lauren's because I was going to bake there. When I got there, I realized I had left the majority of things I needed at my apartment. So I made her come back with me and I baked intermittently with watching Grey's Anatomy. By the time I got around to making frosting, it was about 11:00 pm and I realized I had no powdered sugar. At that point, no store was still open, so I had to wake up early Friday morning to go out and get sugar to make the frosting before I went to work. I love baking, but that's not quite the way I want to start a Friday morning. After all that though, they ended up coming out pretty. I had some extra white and yellow royal icing flowers, and topped the lavender frosting with them.
