Pattern in buttercream, not print
Rather than edible-printed artwork, I hand-pipe pattern: two-tone swirls, dotted borders, contrasting centres. It gives the bright, busy look these events want while staying entirely my own design work.
Awareness Cupcakes
Bandanna Day Cupcakes
Colourful, patterned cupcakes for Bandanna Day events at schools, workplaces and community groups in October. I take the bandanna idea into buttercream — paisley-inspired swirls, two-tone patterns, bright colour pairings — without copying any campaign artwork. Baked to order in Redland Bay; I'm not affiliated with the organisation behind the day.
Please note: Images are provided as a reference only. As each order is individually handmade, piping, design details and colours may vary slightly from those pictured.

School-friendly ordering
Most of these orders come from schools, so I keep them practical: uniform sizing for fair sharing, no hard toppers for younger year levels, and clear labelling of gluten free boxes. Let me know class sizes and I'll box them by group.
Available flavours
Choose from my full cupcake menu: Vanilla, Chocolate (also available Gluten Free), Caramel, Red Velvet, Cookies & Cream and Funfetti. Additional flavours are available on request, and splitting an order across two or three flavours usually suits a shared table best.
Sizes and box options
Standard cupcakes come in boxes of 6, 12 or 24, or as larger sets for bigger events. Mini cupcakes stretch a headcount further.
Gluten Free availability
Gluten Free is available across Vanilla and Chocolate. My home-based studio also handles gluten — please review my Dietary Information before ordering if anyone attending has a serious gluten intolerance.
How ordering works
Send through your date, headcount, event colours and any inspiration. I'll reply with a design proposal and quote, and orders are secured with a deposit once the design is approved. Every request includes a mandatory Dietary Acknowledgement.

Please allow a minimum of 3 business days for smaller orders. Larger or fully themed orders benefit from 2–4 weeks' notice, and awareness dates that fall in busy months book out earlier.
