June 4th, 2007 <!–Lolo–>

A friend of mine is having a going away party tonight. She got a great job in NYC, and they want her there immediately! Good news for her, but bad news for us here in Boston!

The party is also a Knit Night, so I thought I’d bring some appropriately decorated cupcakes. This was my first time working with marzipan, and what fun it is! Like, four hours of fun.

Speaking of the party, I gotta go! Forgive my lack of words; I hope I can make up for it with the ridiculous amount of photos!

Tutorials here.

3. Lucy | June 4th, 2007 at 6:53 pm

Am speechless.

Cute, but not overly so. Beautiful - that’s the word I was looking for.
4. Vivacious Vegan | June 4th, 2007 at 6:59 pm

You, my dear, are truly amazing. Just when I thought I had seen it all…
5. Suzanne | June 4th, 2007 at 7:20 pm

They’re astounding! My goodness - if they taste anywhere near as good as they look… Wow.
6. Cindy | June 4th, 2007 at 7:26 pm

I’m surprised they only took 4 hours! I’m speechless!

9. Mary | June 4th, 2007 at 7:42 pm

Your FIRST time working with marzipan?! A natural! This must be the sweetest, and most thoughtful, cupcakes I’ve ever seen.

For the balls of yarn, did you just wrap tubes of marzipan around a ball of it?
10. andrea! | June 4th, 2007 at 8:18 pm

I just. I can’t. I don’t even.

These might be the most amazing things I’ve ever seen in my life.
11. Maggie | June 4th, 2007 at 8:26 pm

clearly it’s redundant to say, but i’m speechless.

These cupcakes are simply something I’ve never seen before. They look so delicious! So visually pleasing to look at! I saw this entry in the live journal feed, “vegan_yumyum” I just wanted to say that I enjoy seeing all of your entries. I get inspired to cook when I see them! You are very talented. Keep it up
25. Amy | June 5th, 2007 at 6:53 am

26. veggiegirl | June 5th, 2007 at 8:59 am

these cupcakes (especially your work with the frosting) are beyond innovative - excellent job!! as a vegan who loves cooking and food photograhy, your pictures and cooking are very inspiring.
27. Joanna | June 5th, 2007 at 9:24 am

In case I didn’t say it enough last night… BEST. CUPCAKES. EVER. The last one is currently serving as the centerpiece of my table - I still say they are too pretty to eat! (Though I’ll admit, the one yarn ball I did eat was quite tasty…)
28. Jenn | June 5th, 2007 at 9:43 am

Wow, that is some seriously amazing edible art!!
54. vegyogini | June 5th, 2007 at 4:10 pm

Besides the cookbook you’re currently writing, I think it’s time you open a bakery, Lolo! Your attention to detail is jaw-dropping and the love you put into these cupcakes is palpable. What a blessing it is to have you as part of the vegan community.
55. sheree | June 5th, 2007 at 4:33 pm

Oh my gosh! Those are the cutest cupcakes I have ever seen. I have 2 birthdays coming up. Wonder if I can make something even half that cute. Is marzipan expensive? I have never even looked. Awesome job!
56. greengate | June 5th, 2007 at 4:40 pm

Glorious, show stopping creativity is in those cupcakes. Your father is just here looking at the monitor with a quirky smile on his face. He knows what a cupcake is; he is not sure what a blog is. As for me, I think my cupcake runneth over with pride. Congratulations on a cupcake coup, Lolo. We love you. Mom
57. wayfarer | June 5th, 2007 at 7:13 pm

58. Christine | June 5th, 2007 at 7:32 pm

63. Jess | June 5th, 2007 at 10:24 pm

Those are simply fantastic! I love the detail on the “knit” fabric.
64. Josiane | June 5th, 2007 at 11:08 pm

I just have to add my voice to the chorus: those cupcakes are awesomely fabulous! And while I’m at it, I’ll add that after a quick look around your site, I’m extremely happy I followed the link that lead me here… You’ve gained a new regular reader.
65. juicygi | June 6th, 2007 at 12:16 am

i love cupcakes - making and eating. and i love knitting! so clearly i love these cupcakes. if i saw these at a party, i don’t think i could eat them. i would take one home and shellac it and keep it forever.

how did you do it? i’m fascinated.

beautiful!
66. Lynn in Tucson | June 6th, 2007 at 12:59 am

Those are absolutely stunning!
67. Mel | June 6th, 2007 at 1:43 am

Wow! These look awesome…how long did these take to make?
68. Cheryl | June 6th, 2007 at 8:24 am

These are wonderful! The first time you’ve worked with marzipan?? Incredible! Please, oh please, consider doing a tutorial on how you made these - it would be fascinating to see the step-by-step and even try my hand at making some. Really cool - I’m sure your friends raved and raved over them!
69. cecillouise | June 6th, 2007 at 8:27 am

HOW did you do this? Even with Marzipan….did you actually knit it?
Amazing!!!
70. Frank | June 6th, 2007 at 9:48 am

WOW! Those are so cute. Can I ask how you did the knit texture? Super job!
71. kbsalazar | June 6th, 2007 at 11:34 am

I’ve got to ask. I can figure out how you did the yarn balls and the selvage edges. But I’m still noodling on how you did the knitted texture.

From the longitudinally striped scarves, it looks like you arranged a bunch of strands side by side, then drew a line down the center of each one with a pointy object. Then you filled in the angled cross hatching to make the stitch-like look. But it’s all so even, and there’s no over-run of the center lines (damned difficult if you’re drawing three lines independently).

Did you have an arrow-shaped sharp form that you pressed in repeatedly to make the stitch shapes? Or did you do all the cross hatching first, then drew the longitudinal lines in, distorting the cross hatches to make them stitch-like? And if you did so - how warm was the marzipan when you were working with it, and what proportion of sugar did it contain? (I’ve never been able to get that level of detailing without crumbling).

In any case - even if you keep your secrets into the beyond - Envy. Admiration. Both. -k.
72. megan the vegan | June 6th, 2007 at 12:44 pm

I’m astounded. I nearly fell off my chair. You need to open a cake decorating shop…ASAP
73. Judy | June 6th, 2007 at 1:11 pm

OMG, those are absolutely AWESOME! Such talent, I could never imagine being able to make such detailed delicacies. They are WAY too cool to eat.

God bless your hands.
74. vegan noodle | June 6th, 2007 at 1:29 pm

just what everyone else said…wow!
75. Samantha Guthrie | June 6th, 2007 at 1:48 pm

They are truly amazing! If this is what you can do after working with marzipan for the first time, I can’t wait to see what you can do once you’ve had some practice.
76. Ansley | June 6th, 2007 at 1:58 pm

Holy Cow, thoes are amazing!
77. dharma | June 6th, 2007 at 2:10 pm

Those are amazing, beautiful and I want to be able to do that!
78. Kelly | June 6th, 2007 at 2:37 pm

I’ve never seen anything like them! I love that you represented the process of knitting rather than making them all identical. They’re works of art.
79. alotta.knittin | June 6th, 2007 at 2:59 pm

My goodness! Those are just the cutest things!! I can’t believe them! They are fantastic!!!
80. Lisa S | June 6th, 2007 at 3:32 pm

Ah, edible (to SOME people…I bite into a See’s chocolate with one and hand it right over to my husband) playdough. I am SO not surprised that you would come up with something like this, June. Isn’t that sad? We expect you to be brilliant because you ARE brilliant…and clever, which does not always lock arms with Brilliant. Vegan cupcakes…fun for the whole family.
81. Emily | June 6th, 2007 at 4:00 pm

Holy Crap, Lolo! Hi, I’m Stefan’s girlfriend Emily, we met a couple weekends ago? Yeah, maybe nobody mentioned it, but I am a rather obsessed knitter. Anyway, this got linked to in my punk knitter’s lj community. They are so awesome!
82. Suzie | June 6th, 2007 at 5:15 pm

86. Nancy Jack | June 6th, 2007 at 10:02 pm

What talent! You can knit with marzipan and yarn! I can’t imagine how you got the stitches to look so real. It looks like real knitting on top of those cupcakes
87. Mean Mama | June 6th, 2007 at 10:19 pm

100. Geo | June 7th, 2007 at 10:01 am

Yow! Those are works of love! Really great. I have been happily eating my way through a glorious block of Dutch marzipan all week and loving every speck of it. Maybe I’ll play with the part that’s left and see what I can invent. Looks like wonderful fun.

I am hoping that you are planning on entering a cupcake contest through Taste of Home, BGH or some other company that holds one. You would definately win. Your designs and the fact that your ideas are so totally different than your everyday cupcake makes you a shoe in. Keep up the wonderful work. Thank you for sharing with us. You do truly awesome and inspiring work.

134. Beverly | June 10th, 2007 at 10:17 am

those are amazing! I can’t imagine how you “knit (and knit so well) with marzipan.” Now I’m all nostalgic for the marzipan treats we use to buy once a week or so from a bakery in New Britain, CT when I was a teen (eons ago!). I live south of the Mason-Dixon border now…no marzipan here
135. Jinann | June 10th, 2007 at 3:10 pm
