Lemon Curd Meringue


I can't help but take pictures of these when ever I make them. They are so fun to bake and I think my favorite part is using the blow torch to gently brown the meringue on top.


You know you can always order some right?
:)

They are tasty tasty!

Baby Shower Cupcake Toppers

I wish I had a picture of these actually on the cupcakes, but my boxes weren't tall enough for me to send them away with them on. These were for a friend's baby shower. Hopefully someone takes a picture for me with them all gussied up!

Spooky


I know, I know it's May...why are these on here? Well I feel like I have neglected the fact that people really actually look at this blog. I always seem to post most of my things on my other blog http://heidijansson.blogspot.com/. And then once I post things there they don't always get on over to this one. But I'm changing that, hence the Halloween cupcakes you are gazing at.


I hate to say that I probably made these two years ago for my friend's Halloween bunco party. I'm lucky to have people trust my creativity and let me go wild. I thought they were kind of fun.


Who doesn't like brains, sparkley spider webs and pumpkins on their cupcakes! Come on!


I think this year I'm going to make some pretty nasty cupcakes just for shock value.


I love to make my boxes as pretty as the cupcakes. So I found some cool Halloween ribbon and made a little tag to go with it.


Hope you love it!

Michael Jackson


These are my black and white cupcakes. I like to call them Michael Jackson cupcakes but I know that may be pushing the envelope with some of you. I know you laughed a little inside though.


Rich Devils Food with creamy Vanilla Bean Butter-cream.


So so so very yummy!

One bad cupcake :)


A truly great cupcake can be mind altering. I'm not kidding! Having one really bad cupcake can ruin it for you. Someone sets them out at a birthday party and you think "Oh no sir, I remember how horrifying that one cupcake was...I'm not going to be tricked again!" And so you politely pass it up. But when you have a divine cupcake, it changes everything. The best part about making great cupcakes is watching people take a bite thinking "ehh...we'll see"and their eyes pop wide open and their faces light up. After they've gobbled it up and away, they beg for more. My job is complete.
