One Cupcake goes a long way

One Cupcake can say a lot of things:
I am thinking of you
You are sweet
We are friends
You are worth it
I care about you
and last but not least…Happy Birthday!

One of my most precious friends has a birthday in April. She is so kind and always willing to taste my sweet creations and give me her honest opinion…too dense, too sweet, not sweet enough, etc. I love her feedback and trust her palate!! I asked her what type of cupcake she would like for her special day and she requested Lemon Blueberry Cupcakes.

I had made these previously and really liked them, so I was happy when she chose this flavor cupcake.  My husband was too!

This little cupcake says so much more than Happy Birthday.  It says “you are special” and “I am glad we are friends”.

One last thing…does anyone else out there have a kitchen that looks like this while you are baking or is it just me???

  3. Oh my! Those cuppy cakes look delish! 🙂
    My kitchen always looks like a bomb went off when I’m cooking! My momma told me……that’s the sign of a great cook! 🙂
    Thanks for being real girl!
    Oh happy day! 🙂

    • Thanks Sharon! 🙂 I love what your momma told you…I will just tell myself that when I look at my messy kitchen next time! I thought the cupcakes turned out very tasty, Carol loved them as well, so YAY for birthdays and excuses to make cupcakes! 🙂

  8. Lovely combination of flavors. Your kitchen looks real, the tv kitchens on cooking shows must have someone cleaning up after them to look so neat and tidy. Mine is a mess and the pile of dishes for washing up is incredible sometimes! Keep those cupcakes cooking!

    • Thanks Nancy! It sure would be nice to have someone cleaning up after me though! 🙂 I did love these flavors together. It was just the right amount of lemon and blueberry. Thanks again.

    • Thanks! 🙂 And the frosting is actually a lemon buttercream. I did make a cake that had cream cheese frosting and it is really good! I am obsessed with cream cheese icing as well!! YUM! 🙂
