Did I ever tell you that when I was a little girl, I wanted to be a professional cake decorator? That was after I convinced myself I wanted to be a mountain climber, but before I wanted to be a Top Gun fighter pilot. Ah, kids.
Perhaps I’m revisiting my kindergarten years, because I really want to take a cake decorating class – problem is, they’re so expensive! But I see all of this swirly icing and fondant designs and… yeah. I still – almost thirty years later – want to learn how to make gorgeous cakes. That probably wouldn’t help this anti-sugar crusade that I try to adhere to (well, most of the time).
Anyhoo, check out these gorgeous cupcakes. Flickr’s always a great place to go for inspiration. The talented people who designed these cupcakes make me want to bake every day!
This one makes me miss my blue hair!

So delicious looking! Thank goodness I have to go to the local market later where there is a lady sells beautiful cupcakes, including gluten-free ones. I love her Chilli Boysenberry Dark Chocolate…so good.
Really? JEALOUS! Oh wait, we have the Mariposa Bakery. I can’t complain (oh wait – I can’t have sugar – I can too complain
.
I’d love to see photos of the lady’s cupcakes sometime… or maybe you can get her chili boysenberry recipe!
