Whole Foods Chocolate Eruption Cupcake

I went to Whole Foods yesterday... Shopped around... Got an amazing salad to go with this bad boy! Chocolate Cupcake, Vanilla Frosting, Chocolate Fudge, Chocolate Ganache and Sprinkles!! It was sooo goood.. I have to get my calories somewhere since I was only eating a salad!

Here's a second picture, not so great... Still working on the camera!

Happy Chocolate Cupcake Day!!!

For your viewing pleasure, and to celebrate Chocolate Cupcake day, here's some great photos!

Newbies!!

Oh how I LOVE LOVE new cupcake flavors. I think there's a chubby kid inside me that longs for news that my local cupcake place has created a new flavor. I'm bringing new meaning to "a kid in a candyshop" with my cupcake obsession. Moving right along... I've found two new cupcakes to please your palettes... One in my own backyard, Portland OR, and another far far away in Coral Gable, FL.







First, I present "The Malt Ball"

Here's the blurb from St. Cupcakes website:

"let’s hear it for the malt ball, our newest cupcake flavor! jami and rachel lovingly invented a malted chocolate buttercream to top our rich fudgy chocolate cake with malted milk balls baked right in. oh yeah. and then, as if THAT weren’t malty and bally enough, they crushed a ton more malted milk balls and landscaped the top with melt in your mouth boulders. come by and get yours today! or friday! malt ball is the latest addition to our wednesday & friday menus.
malt balls!
(and let’s give it up for lemon berry. thanks for all your sweet tartiness this summer. see you next year.)
ps! we dedicate our new balls to clay aiken. way to go, clay!"

And secondly, I present "Cafe Mocha"

Cupcakes Nouveau says:

"We’re happy to introduce a new cupcake flavor, Cafe Mocha. Cafe Mocha is a Vanilla Espresso cupcake with a Cafe Mocha Swiss Meringue Buttercream Frosting. Mmmmm…very yummy!"

Photography...

This style of photography always inspires me to be creative, and to ask myself “how the heck did they make it look so awesome”. It’s just the gentle fade that gives it a unique old school look. The cupcakes look great with this kind of picture, and I think it brings out every detail, from the pink frosting to the little white chocolate chips… It’s an enhancement of a regular old cupcake photo!

Hello Cupcake! Mmhmmmm!

Maybe it's because I'm starving and I can't find any food in the house... or maybe it's that I have a serious addiction to all things cupcake... But this cupcake look scrumptious... At this point I think I could devour it whole and be left with little bits of pink frosting stuck to my face. Much like a 1 year old on their first birthday... Ahh Memories

Perfect for those Christmas get togethers!

The Cupcake Tester – Got a new job

Yep! Matt got a new jobby! I’m pretty proud of him. I’m being assured that it won’t interfere with his cupcake tasting time, which I require of him. How exciting is that… I might have to buy him something pretty, or alcoholic. Or bake something cute in honor of his new found employment! I’m thinking Chocolate cupcakes, with Chocolate Fudge on top. Maybe a couple pretty sprinkles too… Those are his favorite ones.

P.S. I still need a new camera.
