Hostess 100 Calorie Taste Debate ’08

Posted by on Sunday, September 21st, 2008

Muffin Vs. Cake

Who will you vote for?

Candidate Cake “Let them eat cake!”

From a hard-working, blue-collar Philadelphia family, the young, fresh-faced, idealistic, cream cheese-iced Candidate Cake is looking to go the distance. Due to his carrot cake nature, he has positioned himself as a “visionary” and runs on a progressive platform: “Cupcakes for only 100 calories.” This has been a popular battle cry for anyone with a sweet tooth. And with a constituency like that, Cake is aiming to make winning Taste Debate ’08 look like a piece of himself.

OR

Candidate Muffin “I’m tops!”

Candidate Muffin is proud of his humble, made from scratch, beginnings. Now, a long way from the farm, Muffin and his “Breakfast Any Time of Day” Platform have built a constituency that reaches far beyond the Blueberry Belt. And with trademark southern charm, folksy wisdom and 100 calorie a pack this “Muffin of the People” is poised to be America’s choice in Taste Debate ’08.

Cast your vote now in the Hostess 100 Calorie Taste Debate ’08! Voting ends October 7th!

Heaven

Heaven

I first learned about Heaven from the most unlikely place, a Visa commercial.

Let me explain, I saw a Visa Small Business commerical with a larger than life cupcake and of course it grabbed my attention. Slap a cupcake on anything and I’m all yours.

Of course I had to know more about the business that involved a giant cupcake as big as a building. I found out that the business is called Heaven, and the owner is a fashion model turned baker.

Heaven is a bakery in Bovina, NY where everything is made by hand using local and organic ingredients as much as possible and of course never any kind of preservatives.

The decor is simple, and beautiful. If Martha Stewart opened a bakery, in my mind it would look like this bakery.

For delicious and nutritious treats & cupcakes, please visit Heaven.

Ghouls love cupcakes.

Posted by on Saturday, September 20th, 2008

My friend Hillary- who is the only other mom at the park dressing her kids in Halloween costumes year-round- brought me this rotten little cupcake today from Suckers Candy Inc. I thought it was the cutest, and my two-year-old loved that it was filled with gummy worms.

Halloween is by far my favorite time of year for cupcake decorating. What are your favorite ghoulish Halloween treats? Send us your Halloween cupcake photos and you might see them posted here! Please be sure to credit the person who took the photo/made the cupcakes if it wasn’t you!

Don’t Even Think of Touching That  Cupcake                                                      

By SARAH KERSHAW, The New York Times  Published: September 23, 2007

THE cupcake is at something of a crossroads. Edible icon of Americana, frosted symbol of comfort and innocence, it may not have faced such an identity crisis since first appearing in cookbooks sometime in the 18th century.

As we know, cupcakes have had a whopping resurgence: they are retro-food chic, the thing to eat for people in the know.

But cupcakes have also recently been marched to the front lines of the fat wars, banned from a growing number of classroom birthday parties because of their sugar, fat and “empty calories,” a poster food of the child obesity crisis. This was clear when children returned to school this month to a tightening of regulations, federal and state, on what can be served up between the bells.
