Hi Natasha! I actually was able to find all of these at Walmart. I mixed together a couple of different kinds of blue. 🙂

Please tell us where you got these adorable confetti sprinkles

Hi Natalie! We’d recommend our vanilla cake instead. And yes, you can absolutely use the swiss meringue 😊

Yes you can substitute cake flour. 🙂

Thank you so much for the advice, Sarah! I appreciate it. Congrats on your little one! 🙂

As a new mother myself, I’m so happy for you! My little boy was just born in August, so I’m barely ahead of you in terms of figuring things out.

Some advice:
Everyone says it, and they’re not kidding: it goes so fast. What that means is that you have to slow down and go at your baby’s pace. You might wake up one morning with an unexpected burst of energy, thinking you’ll take the chance to get some project done, but then your baby will have other ideas. Sometimes you’ll end up spending all day in bed or on the couch because your baby needs your snuggles. Embrace it.

That being said, take advantage of the moments when someone else is holding the baby to take care of yourself. Take a shower. Eat some food. Breathe. It’s important to get those restorative moments to help you through the frustrating ones.

Also, if you’re planning on breastfeeding, the more you learn about it now, the better prepared you’ll be for how difficult it can be. I was warned that the first 6 weeks are the hardest, but I didn’t understand why until I went through it myself. It would have helped if I’d spent even a little time in advance learning about some of the most common challenges and remedies.

I’m full of advice, but I’m sure you’ve already gotten plenty of it over the past several months. Good luck! It’ll all be worth it!

Thank you so much, Brittini! We are so excited about his arrival (should be less than a month now!!). Congratulations on expecting your second! I hope you and your husband love the cupcakes!! <3
