Pumpkin Cream Cheese Cupcakes


I could eat these pumpkin cupcakes year round. It doesn't matter if it's Thanksgiving or not, I'll have it with a hot cup of coffee anytime. I really love Starbucks' pumpkin cream cheese muffins, but wished that they would have them as cupcakes too! (maybe one day...) So whenever I'm craving Starbucks' pumpkin cream cheese muffin, I would just whip up this yummy pumpkin cupcakes, and they definitely satisfy the cravings :) These cupcakes are made with pureed pumpkin and topped with my cream cheese frosting.

Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla Minis

We all know that too much cupcakes aren't good for you! ...but they are sooo GOOD :) And for someone who is strict on their caloric intake, cupcakes are probably eliminated from your diet. BUT, good news! You could still satisfy your sweet tooth with some MINIS, and, it's less calories (if you limit it to 2 minis, of course). Not only are they less calories, but also less sugar--good for the little ones, especially for the kids who loves to lick off the frosting! So just a reminder: you could order all my flavors as minis :)

Birds' Nest Baby Shower Cupcakes


These were the cupcakes I made for my sister's baby shower a couple weeks ago. They are coconut flavored cupcakes and chocolate coconut cupcakes. I also made my very popular favors: red velvet and chocolate hazelnut cupcakes, which you've already seen, and maybe even tasted :) The baby shower cupcakes are topped with toasted sweetened shredded coconut. I made the cute little birdies our of fondant (you could also make them blue for a baby boy). I also added sweetened shredded coconut in the cake.

Ladybug Birthday Cupcake Favors


These cupcakes were the favors I recently made for a birthday party. They are cute little pink ladybugs on leaves. I enjoyed making them so much!  The mom wanted them for her 1 year old daughter's baptism/birthday party. She asked me to used these cute favor boxes that she had ordered from papermart.com. The flavor of the cupcake is red velvet with cream cheese buttercream frosting and the photo above it are madagascar bourbon vanilla cupcakes with a madagascar bourbon vanilla bean buttercream--very yummy! :)

Oh Baby!

 This weekend I attended two baby showers; one for a baby girl and the other for a baby boy. The first image above has two different flavors: red velvet and chocolate hazelnut. They are two of my popular flavors. The red velvet cupcakes are topped with a pink flower made of royal icing. The second image above are chocolate cupcakes with chocolate buttercream frosting and blue vanilla buttercream frosting. I used brown and sky blue fondant for decorating. Click on the images for larger view. You could also find more baby shower cupcakes in my cupcake gallery section.

Hey Chocolate Lovers!


Fall in love...
These are dark chocolate cupcakes covered with a bittersweet chocolate ganache and chocolate ganache frosting. For the frosting, I whipped the chocolate ganache after it has cooled, for a light and fluffy frosting.
