Glittering diamonds are the icing on the cake of this charming pendant, crafted from 10 karat yellow gold. The petite cupcake-shaped pendant has a yellow gold base with sculpted edges to resemble a cupcake wrapper and three tiers of genuine diamond accents above. It's fitted with a single bale and featured on a slender and delicate yellow gold rope chain that fastens with a spring ring clasp. An a

With another year behind him, Paul celebrated his birthday today.  A number of people asked if I’d be taking him out for a meal, but I decided to cook when he got in from work instead. I felt it was more personal!

I did this quite sometime back. Just shortly after I did this.One of my son's favourite cookies is Oreo. One day, I saw him munching on them non stop and I told him he will have to stop eating them otherwise I wouldn't be able to make cupcakes with them. :PThe next thing that happened was he kept pestering me to do it. :P Next time must be careful about wanting to tell white lies. At least I finis

The bacon maple cupcake that broke my heart and my wallet. Once upon a time, there was a little town called Chicago that loved it's cupcakes. It loved them so much, it seemed to create a new cupcake shop every time someone sneezed. One such sneeze created a place known for their bacon flavored cupcakes. These bacon cupcakes came in all sorts of shapes and sizes, some savory and some a combinatio

The average unfrosted chocolate cupcake isn't astronomically high in calories. After all, it isn't enormous, slathered with frosting, or covered with crazy toppings. But even a single (naked) chocolate cupcake has an average of over 200 calories and fat grams in the double digits. And FYI, if you felt like splurging and ordered the Triple Chocolate Cupcake at Starbucks, you'd swallow a ridiculous

Tropical cupcakes for you! The color blending and combination plus the design really gave a certain identity to these fresh looking cupcakes.

The last one isn't a cupcake wrapper but I thought it might make a good one. It's red polka dotted cloth. Neat idea? I could see it in Martha Stewart Living.

Huh? What 15 minutes cupcake? Weird name, right? Well, I don't how to call this. :P It actually a normal cupcake except this is recipe only takes 15 minutes to prepare and 15 minutes to bake. Hence, I gave it this name. ;) Had this idea to try this out after seeing a similar recipe on cake in a magazine.It's not only fast to make but very easy too. And you will be surprised with the results too. At least, my husband and I was surprised. Before, we bit into one, I was telling him, "Just dump everything inside, beat, beat, beat and bake. 15 minutes later - done. Hmm ... I don't know... "It turned out moist and fluffy. Yeah, it won't lost out to any other complicated recipes I have tried (baking). I mean if I spend 30 minutes to get this result. I won't want to spend 1 hour or more to get si

I have been playing with the cookie dough lately and made a lot of cute cupcake cookie lollies? or simply just cookies on a sticks. These cupcake cookies have been on my “to do list” for a very long time and I finally had a go making them. I dont have a speciel cupcake cookie cutter so I sat down and draw a template myself. I am very satisfied how they turned out and I have more cake inspired cookies on the way because I had a great time decorating them.It is sugar cookies decorated with royal icing and you can see more cupcake cookie lollies at my gallery.

Continuing on with my look back at previous creations, this is my Banana Fluffernutter Cupcake. This was my March entry into the Cupcake Hero challenge, the theme being marshmallow. This is probably the most obvious use of marshmallow, but I tried to mix it up a little bit. I at first wanted to make [...]

It seems like I am hanging on to the cupcakes at the moment. But I have a mission to find the best vanilla cupcake recipe. So therefor I tried two new recipes last night. One white 125 Best Cupcake Recipes by Julie Hasson and one yellow from Cupcakes by Joanna Farrow. I have tried the white one before but it failed. So this time I must have done my conversion from cup to grams perfect because it was some really great cupcakes that came out of the oven this time. The yellow one must be the most simple one to make a quick batch of tasty cupcakes. All the ingrediens goes in the bowl at the same time and you just beat the batter smooth and thats it really. You can add to the yellow dough: cocoa, lemon, coffee and chocolate chips. Both recipes made a nice dome, they did not shrink and today the

Gorgeous rose and light pink Austrian crystals adorn this one of a kind clutch that will have your friends gushing. I wouldn't say no if someone gave me this as a gift but at a whopping $4,295.00, I will rather go for the calories in a real strawberry cupcake. Still isn't this bag grand?

Mostly due to the hundreds of possibilities.However, I finally decided on a chocolate raspberry cupcake. I used Chambord, which is a raspberry liquor. If you have never tried Chambord, then shame on you! This stuff makes amazing drinks/cocktails. I don’t even think it has a high alcohol proof.

What was once totally unknown to us has now become one of our favourite daily treats: Cupcakes. And who do we have to thank for that pleasure: Dawn Nelson from Cupcake Berlin, whom we fondly refer to as The Cupcake Lady. Her sinful cupcakes are in great demand. Not only do the inhabitants of Friedrichshain love them, she also made celebrities like Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise addicted while they were filming at Babelsberg. But Dawn has not always been a cupcake baker. She was born and raised in Florida, but moved around the states a lot working as a makeup artist for MAC cosmetics and as a freelancer. That’s probably the reason why her cupcakes look tres chic. The pink creams and purple sprinkles must be the remnants of her days of rouge and eyeshadows. We had a little chat with her about Berlin and cupcakes for our feature series “The Makers”. Read the interview and see some photos after the jump. (more…) Share This

Baking again! I'm determine to try baking the usual stuff that I used to get from my friends (who were very into baking then). I'm always told that they are easy especially cupcakes, they said.Cupcakes are very versatile. I have seen so many types of cupcakes. Cupcakes with fillings, fruits, frosting, etc. So I guess I need to try to make the basic cupcake first and from there I can add "salt and vinegar" (Chinese term on adding additional stuff).Hmm ... yeah. I think I can handle cupcakes. My first attempt on cupcakes turned out rather well. My kids finished the whole lot of mini cupcakes!

aqua bear cd mem I made cupcake brownie things last night in exciting cake tins. I also watched four hours of CSI but we wont go into that! mmm Nick Stokes! Unfortunately I thought it’d be a great idea to cover them with icing and hundreds and thousands. I got them out of the oven let them cool a bit, I put the icing on and it went everywhere! I went to get the hundred and thousands out of the cupboard, I come back and start sprinkling, the sodding icing dries in 2 seconds, I got sugar strands all over the place! This is getting to be a bit like an episode of ‘One foot in the Grave’, I go to get the dust pan and broom, sweep everything up, including the cat food prin gets everywhere and then the dust pan falls off the end of the stick, hundreds and thousands and cat food everywhere - again. ugh.

I've seen this recipe floating around the net for several months now. At first, I was hesitant about one of my cupcakes being compared to a factory packaged cupcake. Not to mention that I secretly love Hostess cupcakes and would be crushed if my cupcakes sucked. The recipe is from Food and Wine, and while it is reminiscent of the Hostess version it does not come close to being a "real" Hostess cupcake. The problem was the marshmallow filling, it just wasn't as good as Hostess's. The cake part had a mild chocolate taste, not too dark. The icing on top was great, I liked it better than Hostess's but alas, the marshmallow goodness was not there. Do not fret my cupcake lovers, these cupcakes were a crowd pleaser. Even though they did not meet my standards, everyone at work squealed and cried for one. I felt like some sort of cupcake rock star. It was great!
