Cherish Cupcakes, of Belfast, UK, recently updated their Flickr photostream.  You should check it out, because there’s a lot more to see.  I’m just including a few of my favorites here.  They call the top one the “Endangered Cupcake” which made me laugh out loud.  And I guess it means we shouldn’t eat it.  (Are those Cheerios for ears?  How cute is that?)

I always complain that my husband doesn’t get me flowers. But I’ve changed my mind. Sort of. From now on, these are the roses I want. They are too gorgeous to eat!

These were created for a first birthday party that was ever-so-appropriately hosted at Woodland Park Zoo.   I like the mural-like frosting art on the cake, but am particularly tickled by the detailing on the cupcakes:

Rawr! Beware the wild cupcake!  They may be sweet, but they are fierce!

These sultry July days just make me want to hit the beach with a cold drink and one of those fancy paper umbrellas. Then, I saw this picture on Flickr and realized I also need to bring cupcakes with me. Isn’t this a cool idea? (The decorating I mean, not necessarily my trip to the beach.)

Today is my (hungry runner’s) birthday and I just received an email which included Ten Images of Inspiration, Birthday themed by Design is Mine. The first two images from the set of ten, shown below, are perfect for cupcake lovers.  The first image is by Paul Barbera and is from Book out now in Holland Cup Cakes. The second, a partially eaten cupcake from Danske’s Flikr. To view the other ten images be sure to check out Design is Mine!
