I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! We always have a bunch of birthdays around Christmastime. I try to change up the dessert a little bit and still keep to the chocolate cake requests that happen every 2 weeks at this time of year. Buttercream is made with SO much butter and requires a bit …
Book Review: Like these cupcakes…. this book has a surprise inside! Open when… Letters to Lift Your Spirits by Karen Salmansohn This book reminds me of pop-up books as a child. The book is filled with envelopes that you open and reveal the message. One page will state “open when you are feeling stressed” and …
Here is the EASIEST chocolate frosting I have ever made. It will frost 24 cupcakes using a knife to spread it like a can of frosting would. To make high pillars of frosting on top, you will need to double the recipe. And… NO trans fats! The FDA is going to ban them soon anyway, …
**Update** I updated the Chicken Freezer Meal Inventory sheet. I didn’t realize it had converted into PDF on 2 pages instead of one. That is now fixed. Recipe: I wanted a caramel frosting that was light in calories, but still delicious. This fit the bill. I know chocolate cake should have chocolate frosting, however, I …
Please pardon the screaming blue background! I always carry my cakes in my tupperware covered cake carrier which happens to be a bright blue that goes well with… um nothing! Maybe a carrot cake. But anyway, this week in my psychology class we discussed and read about Eastern psychology and meditation. Some of it is …
Yesterday, we had church, and then a lego birthday party and then a Christmas party. Last year was the famous Angry Birds party which is usually one of the most popular posts on here. He requested the same chocolate cake and I made it into cupcakes instead. Make sure if you make the cupcakes to …
Our church had a community worship service and a dinner before. BJ asked for some desserts and here is one of three I made. It is my husband’s favorite chocolate cake recipe, a dark chocolate buttercream and cream filling. This cream filling is awesome and I can’t wait to do more applications with it. Not …
It’s carrot cake in a cupcake! I love carrot cake, but cupcakes are just easier when managing very large groups of people like 50 or more. These were moist and flavorful. I loved the cream cheese icing too! These were so simple and fast to make when using the food processor. But don’t forget …
If you want something that tastes delicious and is a little “different” then this is for you! LOVE these cupcakes. Easy to put together, taste delicious and you have the option of making 12 or 24 of them. It’s also not from a box, so no nasty weird chemicals. Like it says on the front …
Like I said previously, I had a few desserts to make for our block party this Saturday. It turned out great! If anyone needs recommendations for a balloon artist, face painter, reasonable priced bounce house (most places were twice the cost!) or catering company, I have a whole list (for the St. Louis area)! They …
