How lovely is this sweet bakery mobile from Gifts Define? I love the strawberry cupcake and the birthday cake with a candle. While it is a little pricey at $135.00, I think it would make a lovely gift for a new born baby!
Did you know that next week is Shark Week? It’s a great excuse to invite some friends over, turn on the Discovery Channel, and try your hand at shark cupcakes. Need some inspiration? I’ve compiled a few ideas from the web. Click on each image for more details.
I just tried this recipe from Simple Bites, and one word: AMAZING! I am absolutely blown away.
I did do a few things differently from the recipe. She recommends roasting the beets. I was far too lazy and just pureed some canned beets. I also used Neufchâtel cheese, instead of cream cheese, in an effort to cut out some fat. I also used more maple syrup than she recommended, as I just wanted some additional sweetness. I used plain old sugar instead of the more expensive raw, and I baked mine for only 20 minutes, instead of 25. In the end, though, I couldn’t lose and this recipe has made it’s way into my frequently used pile.
My little girl has so many hair clips that end up all over the house and usually right under my feet! AJO Creations has a simple and sweet solution. These clever little holders hang on the wall so you can clip those little clips right to the hanging ribbon. Love them all but of of course the cupcake is my favorite. But for only $3.75 each, maybe I can afford them all!
Love these floral cupcake toppers from Little Sugar Tops of San Antonio. Check out their Etsy shop, where you can buy cupcake toppers (and then tell people you slaved away all day!).
Now, these are cute! Bee cupcakes from Panapana of Brazil! That chocolate glaze looks heavenly. And for some reason, I’d be tempted to add a little honey in the center too!
Enjoying the Olympics? Awesome. Here is some visual entertainment for all your pinning needs!
What’s better than a chocolate cupcake? In my opinion, a dark chocolate cupcake. You might have to do some conversions for the ingredients in this recipe (it’s from an Australian blog, so some of the measurements are in grams), but the additional math involved should be well worth it.
Cupcakes might be all the rage here in America, but after looking at these impressive treats there’s no denying that the British can whip up some pretty amazing cupcakes. Victoria’s Kitchen in London is the mastermind behind these lovely creations.
These were made for a woman celebrating her 60th birthday. Each book had influenced her life in some way. This detail is impressive!
Another favorite of mine is this set of wedding cupcakes. I love not only the great attention to detail, but also the fact that no two cupcakes are exactly the same.
Read the rest of the blog post on LA Weekly for more cupcakes from this London bakery. You will be inspired!
I know by now everyone’s see the commercials for Snuggies but have you seen the cupcake Snuggie? Called the cupcake booty buddy and available from Urban Outfitters, this oversized poncho is $89.00. Remember those cold winter holidays are coming if you need a gift for a loved one.
Oh my gosh! Check out these “book cupcakes” from Victoria’s Kitchen of Chiswick, West London! Victoria studied cake design in New York, which she calls the “spiritual home of the cupcake.” Isn’t that an awesome and appropriate title?
These cupcakes were created in honor of a woman’s 60th birthday, and feature “books” that have helped shape her life! These cupcakes are a bookworm’s dream!
These are pretty darn clever and would be a great treat to serve at your next barbecue! The “burgers” are actually brownie slices! And you can use as many condiments (as much frosting) as you like! It’s the cheeseburger that meat lovers and vegetarians can agree on!
