I’ll admit–I’m not sure how they did that frosting.
I haven’t really kept up with college basketball, but I believe the Indiana Hoosiers are in first place? Either way, they are something to celebrate, and Indianapolis’s own cupcakery, The Flying Cupcake, is doing it in style with these clever Hoosier cupcakes. Very cute and likely quite delicious. It’s enough to make me watch college basketball!

Then, the next time you go to peel carrots, you’ll have an irresistible cupcake craving!
Good heavens, would you look at these things? Talk about sumptuous! These chocolate covered cherry cupcakes were created by Cupcake Anarchy, the Milwaukee cupcakery that likes to break all the rules. (They also offer beer & bacon cupcakes and honey whiskey cupcakes.)
This cupcake makes me smile. I’ve seen rainbows on top of cupcakes before. But this is the first time I can remember seeing a rainbow in a cupcake. This pic was taken by Jonathan Syer, who loves to photograph cupcakes! (Who doesn’t?)

‘Tis the season! Or, almost anyway. The first holiday parties I know of are happening this weekend, and it’s certainly cold enough outside to be the season!
