A Pistachio Dream.

Hi People!!

So this weekend I made some pistachio cupcakes with with white butter cream frosting.
They were amazing! Almost reminded me of banana nut with chocolate chips cept pistachios!!! and no bananas. haha I had some suggestions that it would have been better without the chocolate chips...i would enjoy it either way i suppose. but i understand the chocolate could have been a bit much especially with that rich and thick frosting. But everyone loved them nonetheless.!! I ate one and it was soo delectable i just craved another.


But these things are not good for you by all means....





Someday...I hope to possibly come up with a more healthier cupcake yet still tasty. Possibly using wheat flour or something other then white flour. Not sure how to attack this challenge, but anything is possible!!

ooo and my wonderful boyfriend got me the Martha Stewart's Cupcakes book. I am sooooooooooooooo excited!!! She's got some challenging stuff in their which will be interesting and im sure many disasters will follow. But practice makes perfect!!

Next on the horizon.....something with cHocOlaTe!!!


Do not hesitate to send me your suggestions and ideas!!

rubiRed strawberry cakes. : D

these cakes are my prized fave so far in this lil adventure.

these are white cupcakes with white whipped frosting and a strawberry on top. very simple and heavenly.
but in a small bite-sized taste. mmm
these weren't not made from scratch. all my cakes should be....but when i go home will try to make that be possible for all of future, for now box cakes will be suitable and good practice. ;)
but on the agenda next is pistachio cakes!!
and these will be needed to be made out of scratch...so be ready for that coming soon!

ps. i am readily open to ALL suggestions of cupcakes ideas and trying to decide find some good cakes for easter!

délicieux red velvet heaven.

i've never tried red velvet before, but they are quite popular. so my curiousity insisted i try these.... but i do wanna remake them in the more traditional way cuz i put coconut pecan frosting on top. which was very good, but still need to make them normal just for the record. ;)

well hello mateys!!

so im thinking about taking this blog in a new direction....

i will be creating many different kinds and varieties of cupcakes. (with possible exceptions)

nothing will be repeated. and there will always try to make something new, different, and more challenging.

i will start with showing off my first cupcakes....

banana with cinnamon honey frosting....



delicious....cept i screwed up the frosting. :0 "don't i repeat do not completely melt the butter"
....this will make your frosting become soupy over time. and make the cakes soggy.

haha oh wells i learned my lesson from that.
