Cupcakes Cupcakes Cupcakes!

 

Valentines Day is just around the corner, love is in the air and I am getting ready for this weekends Wedding show/fair here in Redding, CA. Everyday Fitness is having lots of specials for Brides this spring - enrollment fee is waived, BootY camps and great deals on training with professional trainers.

So I decided to bake some cute cupcakes. This recipe is from Passion4baking it`s a simple and basic recipe.  I will be trying this recipe with different types of flour. This time I just used regular flour aka I won`t be eating them. But I am on this little quest to learn how to decorate cute cupcakes, GF or not ;)

 

Mix the dry ingredients

 

Add the wet ingredients and let mix for a few minutes

 Lastly - add room temperature butter and mix well,

fill the cups only half full

I use a watermelon scoop

 Bake in the oven at 350F for 10-12 minutes,

I cant say for fact that they taste delicious.. But they sure look like they do =)

After having tested and tried many different frosting recipe`s -

here is one that I like. It`s sturdy, does not melt, easy to work with and it 

taste amazing. Especially if you use Mascarpone Cream Cheese.

Add whatever food coloring you desire...

 

For decorating I use a Ateco tip 869, and 

Wilton decorating bags

 

Have a blissful  day!
