food :: cupcake art even you can do!



What a fun book! Hello, Cupcake! : Irresistibly Playful Creations Anyone Can Make by Alan Richardson and Karen Tack, shows you how to make a tasty treat into a cool and unusual art form. I like the emphasis on ANYONE because heck, I'm no artist when it comes to creating masterpieces in the kitchen! From an edible sculpture of your own pet to a platter of spaghetti and meatball cupcakes so real looking you have to taste them to know that they are made from frosting pasta, hazelnut chocolate meatballs, and strawberry spaghetti sauce, this book is chockful of cool and easy ideas. The best thing about these easy design recipes is you don't need to know any advanced techniques or need hard to find ingredients because they give you step by step directions with lots of pictures AND the cupcake designs use candy and snacks available at your favorite convenience store or even the gas station. Yay - cute gas station cupcakes ;) Wouldn't this be a great activity for your kids at their next party? So go take a look at the book, Hello, Cupcake! and make a batch for your next party.
Cuz cupcakes are JUST COOL!

food :: cupcakes + iphones

Cupcakes have come a long way over the years. From being just a frosted mini cake in a ruffley paper wrapper, to  taking on extreme designs of just about anything you can imagine, the Cupcake Craze has turned the lowly cupcake into art as well as dessert! How about these tasty IPhone app cupcakes, for instance?


Master cupcake creators Nick and Daniel Bilton won first place with these delectable confections at the NYC Cupcake Decorating Championships  in  NYC, last fall.
Hmmm...Iphones, cupcakes - combine the two and it is way JUST COOL!
