                                    cupcake inspiration board

Where do I get my inspiration from? I get asked that question a lot, and I always looked slightly stunned as I start my reply with "ummmm". I thought I'd share with you how I do actually come up with an idea using an inspiration board as a visual guide... kind of like looking into my brain, lol though my brain is far more "messy" and also includes me telling the Maggie May the pug not to come into the kitchen :) 

1. I received Riedel "O" series martini glasses as a gift 2. the bubble shape reminded me of Robbie the Robot from the 1950's sci fi movie Forbidden Planet 3. sci fi reminds me of "green", that reminds me of midori 4.Midori liqueur reminds me of a cocktail from home state Melbourne the 'Japanese slipper' comprising of midori, orange liqueur and lemon 5. continuing with the bubble shape I think of first impression silicon drop pearl moulds 6. time to hit the kitchen to come up with a recipe :)
