Cupcakes cupcakes cupcakes.
If I had to choose a single baked good to make for the rest of my life, cupcakes would be it. Not to say I don't love cakes, muffins, pastries, breads and other baked treats. Cupcakes are just so cute and versatile. There are an infinity of flavors, fillings, frostings. You can make them vegan, gluten free, low fat, or nice and simple (read: full of butter!) They can be bite sized or big, you can purchase a huge variety of sweet little cases for them, and speculation has it there are cupcakes for every occasion... funeral cupcakes, anyone?
This blog, with a bit of luck, will turn into a collection of my past and present baking adventures, cupcakes and otherwise, as well as other random confectionary and food related things I stumble upon.
To start off with, how about some Super Mario geekery?
Fondant is incredibly fun to play with, and I made these for my birthday this past year. The cupcakes themselves were just plain vanilla, but the colourful fondant characters definitely brightened them up a bit. Paired with a trip to the arcade these made for a lot of sugar fueled fun.
