Readers' favorite cupcake is... CARROT!!! With 36% of the vote, the carrot cupcake barely stole the lead from vanilla and red velvet which both had 27%. Chocolate came in a surprising last place with just one vote. So to that lone chocolate cake lover - stay strong. Red velvet is almost chocolate so maybe it stole some of those votes. So it seems the next cupcake I need to perfect is a delicious carrot cake. This will make Ben happy as its his favorite. Now I just need some piping accessories so I can frost cute carrots on top of the cupcakes.
There are two batches of cupcakes to make before this, however. On Friday, I am making shark cupcakes for the beginning of hockey season. Next Wednesday, I'm hoping to make chocolate heath bar ones for the guys in Ben's youth group who loved and still remember the chocolate-heath cookies I made when they came up to Toccoa for Homecoming last year. If anyone in the Melbourne, FL area wants to be the test subject for the carrot cupcakes, let me know. Ben, his family and I have been eating a lot of cupcakes lately...
I was that lone chocolate cupcake fan. And I stand by my opinion that it is the best kind. :)
ReplyDeleteWhen chocolate is done well it can be great. I just had a chocolate cake made with chopped Andes mints in it... Delicious!
ReplyDeleteYou should really include a photo with each post, well atleast each post about cupcakes, so we can see your work!
ReplyDeleteThat is a good point. I will try to remember to take a photo before they all get eaten.
