One can only watch Cupcake Warriors so many times before one must make cupcakes. I hope the judges like my Betty Crocker chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting, which was applied using a ziplock bag with the corner cut off. I’ve never made peanut butter frosting before. It is fabulous. I think everything could be made better with peanut butter frosting: stale cookies, crackers, green beans, the crime rate in DC. Andy teased me about these looking like poopie cupcakes. Hrmpf. No cupcakes for you!
My mom dusted off a bag of 30 year-old paper doilies to help spice up the photo a bit, and I decoratively sprinkled peanuts hither and yon. Hey, I could be on the Food Photo Designer Warrior show, too! (Or maybe I really should be on the World’s Worst Cook show. It’s a good thing I don’t have cable at home.)
Excellent! I had to make cupcakes the very next day of watching that show. You did a great job and the picture looks so professional!
Thanks! I love the cupcake show and must watch whenever I’m visiting my folks. This is the first time I’ve done the fancy frosting, and it was fun! If wan’t making chili for next weekend, I’d probably make cupcakes!
