Cupcakes seem to be the perfect size for just a little sweetness. Being that you get more than just a bite, but less than a slice it's almost justifyable to have one.
Cupcakes have evolved over the years, and their ingredients getting more and more fancy and creative. Long gone are the days of boxed mixes and plastic jar frosting in my kitchen at least. Today, my cupcakes are made with organic butter, free range chicken eggs and flavorings from beyond the pastry world.
Here are a few creations that I've made. Recipes found online or adapated.
