Whats Up Doc?

I just recently returned from vacation to Chicago. I hadn't been in years, and it's where I grew up (most my life). While on vacation I baked these delicious carrot cupcakes with a cream cheese frosting. The tiny carrots are also made out of cream cheese frosting.

Razzberry Lemonade & Cookies 'n Cream

This one is simple. Not plain...just simple. The yellow with pink frosting is Razzberry Lemonade. Follow that up with a dark chocolate cupcake topped with, what tastes like the center of an OREO, Cookies 'n Cream.

Enjoy!!

Flavor ideas for the Carte de Jour

Hello to my reader(s), whoever you are . . .

I had a wonderful conversation with my sister tonight which got my creative juices flowing. I have some new ideas for cupcake flavors, and I am considering adding these to the menu on a permanent basis.


RAZZBERRY LEMONADE- Lemon cupcake w/ raspberry frosting


PB and J - Vanilla cupcake injected w/ strawberry jam w/ peanut butter cream cheese frosting


WHAT'S UP DOC?- Carrot cupcake w/ cream cheese frosting


COOKIES 'N CREAM - Chocolate cupcake w/ cream cheese frosting blended w/ crushed Oreos


GRASSHOPPER - Chocolate cupcake w/ mint buttercream frosting.

Let me know what you think of these flavors. All are contenders for a permanent home on the Carte de Jour. You are welcome to tell me about your favorite cupcake flavors or what you think would be a great flavor for the menu.

♥ always,

Austin's 4th Birthday Event (featuring Thomas the Tank Engine)

Austin's birthday cupcake. Epic!

It definately turned out better than I expected. Especiall for the first use.

I decided to pipe the frosting using the 1M tip.

Thomas!

Nom nom nom!

Cheese face!

"Yummy!!"

On a side note: This is the best idea for a child's birthday party. Especially in the summer. And once the kids are gone, it becomes a fun ride for adults, too!
