My friend Phil (known to most of the world as CM Punk) sent me this picture from backstage at Wrestlemana. He told me there were always nasty grocery store lookin’ cupcakes on the catering tables but today he proved it. He also proved that even big sweaty wrestlers can’t resist a sweet cupcake. But if you’re ever baking for Punk, skip the frosting. He hates it.

Absolutely gorgeous! These beauties come from Lorraine of Not Quite Nigella. Go check out the recipe here. I think these have to go on the must-bake list. I am in love with them. I mean it. Love.

Hello Everyone, This is in regards to the contest that Vanessa (heyprettycupcake) held in February. I have contacted her to see if she had picked a winner, and she has not yet. Please e-mail her with any questions or to let her know you submitted… heyprettycupcake@gmail.com

Thanks!!!! :D

One of us WILL win this. Sure, the prize is just a stupid cupcake tree, but like Amy said, “Who cares if the prize is a peppermint candy from the bottom of her purse? It’s Martha.” I would cherish that peppermint.

(This is by far, one of my favorite features that I’ve done on All Things Cupcake. Thanks so much to Xeni for e-mailing me her video!!!)

Boing Boing tv presents CUPCAKE CUTTHROATS, a cakesploitation epic exploring the dark side of electric art-cars shaped like baked goods. These homemade vehicles are crafted by Silicon Valley nerds (including one engineer from Tesla Motors) and Burning Man enthusiasts in a Berkeley, California, warehouse. In today’s episode, Xeni joins the marauding muffineers for a 15-mph thrillride down mean, sugar-sprinkled streets.

CBS News almost blew our cover! The muffineers say, “We would especially dedicate our efforts in memory of Keith Taft.” A full list of cupcake art car bakers designers and drivers, after the jump.

Here’s another one for the collection. This photo was sent to me by a vegan baker in Barcelona with a note that said “thanks for the sentence!” I’m just going to pretend he’s a fan of my blog and not just of the name of my blog.
