Pinkie Pie’s Cupcake Song

I grew up watching the My Little Pony: The Movie from 1986!  Even though the look of the little ponies has changed a lot over the years I still thought this youtube video that my friend shared with me was cute.  The video is Pinkie Pie’s cupcake song where Pinkie Pie teaches Applebloom how to make cupcakes! While I wouldn’t attempt making the cupcakes that the ponies sing about, it is still a fun way to introduce kids to baking.

Operation Cupcake

By on Monday, March 26th, 2012

Be on the lookout for a new Hallmark Channel movie titled Operation Cupcake, starring Dean Cain and Kristy Swanson. The movie preimeres Sunday, June 17th at 8 Eastern. The movie tells the story of an Army dad who suddenly finds himself working in a cupcakery. Apparently, he tries to take a military approach to cupcaking. Hmm…

Oddly enough, there was another movie with the same name, albeit, bearing a colon, Operation: Cupcake, from 2006. I can find no connection between the movies though, except for the well, love of cupcakes.

On an episode of the Nickelodeon show Victorious the characters build a giant cupcake float for the “parade parade”.  The group runs into trouble when the cupcake float they are riding inside gets a flat tire on their way to the parade.  To make matters worse, they are stuck in a bad neighborhood wearing candy pajamas.  You can watch the episode titled Terror on Cupcake Street on YouTube.

Mayor Cupcake

Has anyone seen this movie, Mayor Cupcake?  It’s about a cupcake baker that is elected mayor of a small town after one of her cupcakes accidentally kills the mayor.  The newly elected mayor faces the challenge of helping the town that is burdened with debt.  I haven’t seen it yet but I have a feeling I would watch it ifnothing else was on TV.

Lava Fudge Cupcakes

Love fudge?  Been eating hot fudge sundaes?  How about cooling down while heating up some “Lava Fudge Cupcakes” in your kitchen?

Lava Fudge Cupcake

Georgetown Cupcake’s Sophie has a 2-minute video, courtesy of The Learning Channel, claiming to “reveal the secrets behind their famous Lava Fudge cupcake.”

While she doesn’t provide the recipe, Sophie does provide several excellent tips, from using apple corers to hollow out cupcakes before pouring in the fudge, to easy-pour tops for filling and decorating.

So I dug around the Internet at bit…and found the Georgetown Cupcakes recipe for their chocolate cupcake with vanilla cream cheese frostings with variations!  Add your own fudge and, “By George!  I think we’ve got it!”
