Banana Chocolate Spice Cupcakes
The Story: What am I doing right now? I am sitting in a Bio 100 class. Yes, I am a super Senior in college and successfully put off a GE until my last semester. But it’s totally okay, because I just sit in the back with the TA’s and chit-chat the whole class (and write…
Chocolate Hazelnut Cupcakes
The Story: Today is National Chocolate Cupcake Day! Didn’t know? Neither did I until a reader asked me what I was making for the day…whoopsy! Now, most people make their Chocolate Hazelnut desserts with Nutella, and I have! But for this one I wanted to use some hazelnut creamer instead…
Easy Chocolate Cupcakes
The Story: What’s the “story” behind this cupcake? You tell me, because I don’t know. All I want to do right now is rant about life! I want to tell all my frustrations to the wide open internet and see what I get back. I want to say what I really feel and let it…
Pumpkin Rose Cupcakes
The Story: I walked into a bagel shop the other day and was completely attacked by pumpkin. 3 types of pumpkin bagels, pumpkin schmear, pumpkin poppers, pumpkin drinks, pumpkin, pumpkin, PUMPKIN! It was too much. Don’t get me wrong, I love pumpkin but too much too fast is a bad idea. I mean, it’s still…

Mint Chip Cupcakes
The Story: I am a Northwest girl. So what does that mean? It means I love waking up to the sound of rain, wearing cozy sweaters, rooting for the Oregon Ducks and I love Tillamook everything.

Keebler Cupcakes
The Story: If you couldn’t tell, I have been on a big kid-kick lately, making cupcakes that bring out the crayon-loving, plaster-eating and Sunny-D kid in all of us. These cupcakes finish off the theme, then maybe I will get back to more glamorous and grown up cupcakes. Maybe…
Triple Threat Cupcakes
The Story: What do you get when you combine Oreos, cookie dough and brownies? A very happy kid… or adult. After seeing the brownie/cookie/Oreo bars all over Pinterest I thought there needs to be a cupcake with the same combo. Is it a little crazy and over the top? Yes–but your taste buds will thank…

The Story: I did a promo photo shoot a few weeks ago and I needed some pink cupcakes. So I whipped these cuties up for props. But when I posted a sneak peek photo on my facebook page, people wanted the recipe. So here it is. It’s pretty simple and the raspberry on top really…
