Easter Egg Cupcake.

Alright, so I know Easter seems like forever ago already. But I made these for Easter and haven't had the motivation to post them yet. So here I go....:]


This idea came from the Martha Stewart's Cupcake book, which I posted about in my last update. The chocolate cake was extremely moist and I am definitely putting this as the best chocolate cupcake recipe. I have never tasted a more perfectly moist cupcake.

FIVE STARS *****!! for the cake recipe.

The icing on the cake is royal icing swirled together. I wasn't perfectly happy with my icing colors because I put in too much dye and made it too dark instead of lighter more pastel color.

AND, I also do not like royal icing very much...so I probably wouldn't use that again. and today I also decided I don't like cream cheese frosting either...lol

So I am on a venture to find the perfect frostings!! Must be delicious, light, and the perfect texture.

I am also working on finding a good, cupcake carrier, so my frosting doesn't get squished.
Transporting cupcakes is quite difficult......


So as you read this blog and chomp on a cupcake......ponder on my quote of the day.

"The secret of getting ahead is getting started. The secret of getting started is breaking down yor complex overwhelming tasks into small manageable tasks, and then starting on the first one."
-Mark Twain.


Don't let life overwhelm you. Go eat a cupcake and break your busy life down. NOBODY can do it all at once.
