Chocolate and Red Velvet cupcakes are the perfect pairing for the chocolate lover.  A Red Velvet cupcake is perfect for those who want a cupcake with just a hint of cocoa, topped with a smooth cream cheese frosting.  A true chocolate craving calls for the Double Chocolate cupcake, rich chocolate cake frosted with chocolate cream cheese. 

 

 

 

Speaking of which...I think it's time for a cupcake!

What does every new parent (or any over-tired individual) crave more than sugar to give them a boost? Coffee! That was the inspiration behind these coffee infused cupcakes, sprinkled with espresso powder.  Officially this would be called a mocha cupcake, as the base I used was a chocolate cake.  In my opinion, not much better than coffee and chocolate!

 

The only thing better than one mini cupcake, is three mini cupcakes!

I love cookies.  Almost as much as I love cupcakes.  Put the two together and you get the delightful cookies n' cream cupcake.  I experimented with this cupcake about a month ago, much to my husbands delight, it was a success!  The icing was also a new one for me to try.  I did a thin layer of chocolate ganache icing and then dipped them in cookie crumbs.  So good! 

 

 



For everyone who knows me, they know I love desserts, especially cupcakes.  Since I love baking I decided I would start experimenting with making my own cupcakes.  My family and friends have not seemed to mind being my taste testers on new flavours! I started this blog to express what I have been up to and showcase some of my creations.

 

 

These cupcakes were made for a friend's baby shower.  They are Key Lime, Salted Caramel and Chocolate Banana.  They went over quite well with the guests and Mom-to-be!

Anyways, will keep the first post short and sweet, but wanted to get started posting! I hope you enjoy!
