Cupcake Crazy

I must admit this post is factual but completely selfish. I am addicted to cupcakes and have been before they became the phenom they are now. Nothing frustrated me more than not being able to buy an individual cupcake just a few years ago. Now I can buy one on every corner. Cupcake boutiques are popping up everyday across the states. And we can't get enough!  One thing is for sure you can't go wrong with cupcakes and these days they are coming in all shapes and sizes. They have even made there way into weddings, celebrity bashes and they are being stuck on sticks too. The ones on sticks are called cake pops. Don't let that confuse you, they are quite tasty and follow suit with the many theme related and exceptional displays they can create.  Take a bite and live a little.

Hello Cupcake

In keeping with the Easter theme, desserts and kid entertainment. Here are some of the cutest cupcakes you can surprise your guest with at brunch, lunch or dinner. Again, it can be self serve, portion controlled (maybe), a possible kid decorating activity and all around pretty conversation piece. This will definitely inspire tongues to wag before they start to drool. You can have some if you live the DC metro area. If you hurry and hop on over to http://www.pinkpiggysweets.com/ to order them.  Order a bunch, stack them on varying height cake stands and make it a centerpiece. The colors are a great reminder of Spring being near and simply makes you smile. Enjoy!
