Spiced caramel apple

Tonight I got into one of my late night baking moods and decided to make something new, spiced caramel apple :) Since it was late and I was pretty beat I cheated a little and started out with a boxed spice cake, I then chopped up and added in 2 cups of granny smith apples, topped it with my cream cheese frosting (recipe listed under my pumpkin posting) and finally topped it off with a drizzle of caramel :) They were a big hit!

Birthday cupcakes

I've been a little behind on my blogging so thought I'd take some time to catch up. My son turned 4 in June (told you I was behind lol) and he said he wanted chocolate cupcakes, with blue frosting.I also filled them with custard :)I decorated them with this adorable edible silver heart confetti I found at Michaels Craft Store.

Banana Split

Who doesn't like a banana split, right? They have such a wonderful mixture of flavors but don't exactly travel or have much of a shelf life, ice cream and all ;) So I decided to create a banana split cupcake.

Started out with the very important banana cake base, added vanilla frosting and of course a sundae wouldn't be complete without all the toppings....hot fudge,sprinklers,nuts and a cherry on top :D

Snickerdoodle

We're big snickerdoodle fans in our house so one day after baking several batchs I had to create a snickerdoodle cupcake...ofcourse LOL

So I baked a vanilla cinnamon cake a topped it with cinnamon sugar frosting not only did they smell amazing but they tasted just like the cookies :D
