The woman who does my eyebrows told me about Hummingbird Cake, which means I hear about cakes in the best places. She told me it was her favorite kind of cake, and I had never heard of it. So of course I ask, and she says it has pineapple in it. Alright, I can get…
I’m a little bored of cupcakes right now. Only because I’ve gotten into a pattern of making a lot of the same recipes over and over because a) my husband likes them and b) they’re in my comfort zone. This time, I tried to get out of it. Caramel is one of those mildly temperamental…
There’s no easy title for these all-encompassing cupcakes. Devil’s food cake + chocolate pudding filling + marshmallow frosting + oreo crumb topping. Cakemallows makes it seems like the cakes are marshmallows, but they’re kinda fluffy cupcakes anyway.. I think this is fine. This little monster from Timid Monsters fame just wants to dive in. Let’s…

I’ll admit, halfway through this recipe I forgot what I was making anymore. I was channeling my drunk kitchen, but for baking it is pretty hit or miss. I’m glad I had already gotten through the batter at the point where I decided my frosting was NOT going to be fancy. I’m glad I didn’t…
HEY CHOCOLATE LOVERS: YOU GONNA LOVE MY CAKES. But on a “richer” note – these cakes are serious business. I recommend eating half and splitting the other with a friend. As much of a sugar fiend as I am, these made me think twice about eating anything else for a week. But your mouth will…
So one of my pet peeves is when someone tells me to ice my cupcakes. I could ice them, but chances are I’ve made frosting for them instead. Here’s my way of explaining how frosting and icing are two different actions and types of toppings 🙂 Which term do you use? Leave me a comment!…
It looks like ice cream – but it’s whipped honey frosting! 🙂
