Have you ever had something like this happen? Good Gawd, look at my photo today. Those cupcakes. It's like food coloring on steroids.
See, here's my completed cupcake order for a baby shower. She (the hostess)asked for pink, orange and lime green. Hmmm, sounds bright, right? (Well, it did to me anyway.) Now, I am worried half to death that this green is a bit...well...over the top. (Are lime green and neon green one in the same?) Together, it's all just so bright.
You see, this is what happens when a person orders something without giving me a napkin, or invite to go off from. I sure hope this is what the hostess was envisioning.
I just decided I'm not going to charge her for the green ones.
**edited 6 hours later to add** I know some of you love the green, but I simply couldn't imagine folks eating them and it was bothering me...worrying me. (everyone's tongues would be bright green!) I know my friend that ordered these pretty well, and I decided the screaming neon green had to go, so I swapped out the green ones for white frosting with green or pink accents.
*sigh* Still bright, but a teeny tiny bit more subdued. (sorry to you folks that loved the green!)
