Welcome to the Coutured Cupcake!!

When I finished my Master's degree, I found myself with a little extra time on my hands...so I decided to do something that I always wanted to do--decorate cakes. Although I enjoyed the classes and decorating cakes, I find myself overwhelmed by their size at times...Sad, I know, to be defeated by a pile of flour and eggs, but I have been--many, many times. I am, however, a marketer's dream. If they can make a product and then shrink it down into miniature size, I will want it--guaranteed. Why? Who knows?  Maybe because it's more portable? More practical?  Nope... just cuter.   If it's good full sized, it's going to be even better as a mini.  Hamburgers are better as sliders, and so obviously cakes are best as cupcakes. 

My cupcake philosophy is simple-- I like making different flavors of cupcakes and frosting combinations, but I am not scared of the old traditionals, either. Sometimes only a chocolate cupcake with chocolate frosting will do!!  Luckily, I have an office full of people who are willing to be my guinea pigs when it comes to my latest confections!
