i made this order for a lady at work... hope she enjoyed them as much as i enjoyed making them! :)




maple 'n bacon pancake cupcakes!

this was a fun one to try!  maple pancake cupcakes with bits of bacon and maple syrup drizzled on top. :)  next time, i might try adding little bacon pieces to the batter.  i took these to work for a breakfast social and they did very well!

it's 5 o'clock somewhere margarita cupcakes.

i wanted to make cupcakes for my friends birthday, but i wanted to do something different than the usual "birthday" cake/cupcakes.. she is a fan of tequila lol.. and margaritas, so i came up with the idea for margarita cupcakes!

 

voila! it's 5 o'clock somewhere! ;)

almond is one of my favorite flavors, so it only made sense to make these. :)

just getting started...


my name is natalie and i love cupcakes. :)

i'm starting this to keep track of the cupcakes i make and hopefully expand to a cupcake shop.

so, to introduce myself, here's a picture and a few facts:

Photobucket

i am 25 years old (almost 26!) and have a huge passion for all things cupcakes! :) so much so, i just got a cupcake tattoo on my foot! true dedication, i tell you!

looks yummy, doesn't it?!

i've always loved to bake, but opening a cupcake shop just seems like the right option for me.  i really want to try out unique flavors to set myself apart from the rest of the cupcake frenzy!

i'm so excited to see where this can go!

so, follow along if you like! i'm still getting all of this started, so maybe don't judge me too harshly just yet! ;)


<3 natalie.
