Complete!

A couple of weeks ago I finished baking all the cupcakes! (with the exception of a few) I was unable to bake a few because they required ingredients and equipment that I COULD NOT FIND/DIDN'T HAVE. BUT I did all that I could. My last one was Red Velvet, a classic which of course tasted amazing. The last few months were tedious because I had to make so many but it taught me a lot. If I want to one day have my own business, I need patience and I need to buy in bulk! It was a lot of fun and I am even more interested in baking than I was before.

Carrot Cupcakes: the carrots are complimented by pecans, cream cheese frosting, and toasted coconut!

Zucchini Spiced Cupcake: also topped with cream cheese frosting!

Chocolate Chip Cupcake: simple and delicious, I added extra chocolate chips because I love them!

One Bowl Chocolate Cupcakes with Gumdrops: although they look really good with the gumdrops, it was a lot to eat the whole cupcake with everything on, but the cake itself is good!

Happy Mother's Day!

Today is Mother's Day so I made a special cupcake! This recipe is part of the 64 that I'm doing but I saved it for today because it has a very spring feel and look! I'm pleased with how they came out because I wasn't sure if I could do the topping like how it's pictured in the book. It's just a plain white cupcake with buttercream frosting and I colored it to get that pinkish color.
I'm almost finished belive it or not I only have about 15 left and 2 weeks. Hopefully I'll be able to do them all but I'll be challenging. I might have to skip the hard ones if I don't have time because it's also costing money buying all the ingredients although I've been trying to be as cheap as possible. I've been bringing them into school to get rid of them because 3 people can't eat all of those cupcakes! Pretty much done though!

Martha's Meyer Lemon Curd: it's a lemon flavored cupcake and was supposed to have a lemon curd on the top but I had trouble making it and it wasn't hardening so I just left it as is. It was still good though!

Triple Citrus Cupcake: the main ingredients are lemon, lime, and orange but I didn't have an orange so technically it's double citrus. It didn't effect the outcome/consistency though!

Stout Cupcake: made with stout beer and the glaze is stout flavored as well!

Cookies and Cream Cheesecake: self explanatory and yummy!

Lemon Yogurt Cupcakes with Raspberry Jam: a long name but a great cupcake! filled with raspberry jam and topped with a sprinkle of confectioners sugar.

Chocolate Spice: I love chocolate ganache! It makes the cupcake that much better and I was very generous with it!
