Cookie Monster Cupcakes!

It was my daughter's 2nd birthday last week and we were celebrating with the Sesame Street theme. Since my daughter is sooo crazy about Elmo (which toddler isn't??), we had decided to order an Elmo cake from Sweetthings - www.sweetthings.ca. I found a picture of a cake i liked online and sent it to Juanita to see if she could replicate it and voila here's how the cake turned out:








Since i'm soo crazy about cupcakes, I had to make some for her birthday. Not only does my daughter love elmo, she also loves cookie monster! So it was decided, cookie monster cupcakes! Now making these cupcakes was "no stroll in the park" LOL. But they turned out great and everyone loved them!












Carrot cupcakes, with buttercream/coconut frosting and a chocolate chip cookie ofcourse! the eyes are edible mints.

What is Red Velvet?


I'm constantly asked this question, so I thought of dedicating a blog to describing how Red Velvet cupcakes are made. Red Velvet is a staple classic dessert among southerners. It is a rich, moist, sweet cake with a dark red, bright red or red-brown color. It is usually prepared as a layer cake somewhere between chocolate and vanilla in flavor, topped with a creamy white icing. Common ingredients are buttermilk, butter, flour, cocoa, and either beets or red food coloring. 6 Tablespoons of Red food coloring is used per batch! Here's what the batter looks like:









Into the muffin tray




Cooling on a wire rack:





And voila the final product....
