so, instead of celebrating so many individual birthdays, i decided to throw one big h○○rah. the theme, CUPCAKES! in fact, it's a cupcake decorating contest. naturally, not just any cupcakes will do. so i've been searching foodgawker to find the best recipes for cupcakes, and here they are:
1. Chocolate Cupcakes and Chocolate Frosting
the cupcakes and frosting recipes are from Lovin' From the Oven. and although they look absolutely divine as Kim intended... i'm adding Kelly's Creme Filling to really make these chocolate cupcakes stand out!
2. Chocolate Chip Cupcakes and Cookie Dough Frosting
A Good Appetite has a great, simple recipe for chocolate chip cupcakes. i've made them once already, and upon ryan's request i'll be omitting the cinnamon this time.
the frosting comes from HELLO!BAKER and is truly amazing to taste. i recommend it highly.
the combination of these two came out perfect when i made them last time.
3. Lemon Cupcakes and Butter Cream Frosting
am going lazy on these, because the lemon cake from the box is actually really really nice. as for frosting, i'll be making lots of HELLO!BAKER's butter cream and probably dying it lots of different colors for decorators to chose from ^_^
obviously, the three kinds of cupcakes and three frosting's will be mixed and matched for the competition, but these are my favorite partnering of flavors.
i can't wait!!
UPDATE: what do you think of rainbow colored lemon cupcakes!?
