It was a big week for custom collections. A 50′s collection. Mocha Cupcakes with Espresso Buttercream Frosting You’ll be happy to know that I have recovered from my epic kitchen fail, the oven is sparkling, and to celebrate I give you these amazing mocha cupcakes with espresso buttercream frosting. Plus, it’s Friday. And cupcakes are a perfect way to welcome the weekend with open arms. It’s been a crazy, messy, stormy week, and you deserve one.

To give you just a bit of a history lesson, the idea for the The Daring Bakers was born in November of 2006 when Lis of La Mia Cucina and Ivonne of Cream Puffs in Venice decided to challenge themselves by baking pretzels for the very first time using the same recipe.

How does your cupcake tattoo go? By applecupcake on July 7th, 2010 . Filed under: Tattoos . Is it pink and pretty or evil and foreboding?

Old Centennial Farmhouse: Refrigerator Bran Muffins These muffins are like having a nice bowl of Raisin Bran. Only better. (They don't get soggy!) It's fall and our thoughts turn to 'comfort food' and baking more often. Recipes Finally I get to eat chicken salad sandwiches and drink serious glasses of milk again in the back yard while reading books! My favourite pastime. Crazy as it may sound, I built this sandwich around a bottle of mango vinegar; my latest culinary addiction. It turned out every bit as spring-like, fresh and wonderful as I hoped it would be.
