Chocolate Cupcakes with Chocolate Peanut Butter Frosting

This is a devil's food cupcake with chocolate peanut butter frosting with bits of heath bar in the frosting. F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C. These tasted absolutely amazing and I got great reviews from everyone who tried them. The frosting definitely made the cupcake. 

Red Velvet Cupcakes

My cousin is getting married in November and she wants red velvet cupcakes, so these were a trial run before the main event. They turned out really great, but I might tweak a few things for the next go around..more red food coloring as a start because they didn't' have the deep red color that is common for most red velvet cupcakes. But the cupcake was moist, with great flavors and the cream cheese frosting turned out really yummy too. I also experimented with different frosting designs and decorations for the tops of each cupcake..I think they turned out really great!

For Heaven's Bake

Starting a bakery seemed like an ideal thing for me to do; I love baking and right now am only working in the afternoons. So I have spent several mornings practicing my love ad trying to perfect some cupcake recipes. What really could be better? My dad comes from a family of 10, so I have 27 cousins on that side. Why am I telling you this useless information...because having lots of cousins around my age means lots of wedding in the near future. Lot of weddings means ample opportunities to turn my passion of baking into a wedding present. Unless I absolutely fail with my cake/cupcake making who could pass on a cheap wedding cake? This will allow me to accumulate a portfolio of my work! So the first thing I needed to do was think of a name, and while my husband and I were driving to San Luis Obispo one weekend we came up with the perfect one:

For Heaven's Bake...sorry but I am in love with it!
