This one is good for someone who LOVES chocolate. It is very rich - yet moist. I loved it. I garnished it with white chocolate shaving just to give the eyes a little pop.
This one was my favorite as well as everyone else. Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcake. If you like Reese's peanut butter cup, you'll love this one. I even put a Reese's peanut butter cup as a garnish. Hubby ate THREE.
I really liked the taste of the Strawberry Shortcake Cupcake but I have to re-do this one. The vanilla frosting was good but a little dense. I wait something light and airy - creamier. And I have to re-think the chocolate covered strawberry on top. Maybe just a plain strawberry or cover it in white chocolate. Back to the drawing board with this one.
The Carrot Cupcake turned out very very yummy. I just couldn't decide with the garnish. I made two - a caramelized walnut and a candied walnut. Both looked and tasted so good, I might just put both on the menu and have the customers choose!
Now I have to test the lemon, vanilla, maybe another chocolate with oreo cream, pumpkin and pecan. So much work - these cupcakes.
On CAKE news, I just made an Xmas Cake. The customer wanted something for her Xmas party - I asked her what kind and she said something "fun" - maybe ornamets, but that she'll leave it up to me. So - I thought HEY! Why not an Oranment box!
I didn't realize how much time it would take me to decorate this cake. I think I started at 5PM the night before and I ended up finishing at 5AM. I loved the end product. So colorful - so Christmas-like and festive and I love love loved the ornaments!
