ni hao, cupcakes






ok, so I'm baking up a new post. this next one is gonna be a little more about a big cake, but there will be cupcakes! oh there will...

I'm making a cake and accompanying cupcakes for a 3 year old's birthday tomorrow. little kid cakes are the best! they're so much fun. anyway, so the theme is:


it should be fun. I'll have an update and pictures tomorrow.

also- tonight I did some cakesperimentation. aaaand it was kind of an epic fail. I don't use that phrase loosely. it was rough. one of my favorite things is making cupcakes with pop (or soda, for you non-midwesterners). it's suuuper, super easy and really delicious. well, it's easy with boxed cake mix. I decided I was going to be adventurous and see if I could make them with a from-scratch mix... hahaha oh man. it was a big mess. I wasn't even mad about it so much as it was kind of just hilarious how ridiculous it turned out. what's that? you want proof? ok, I'll provide tonight's entertainment...

umm, yeah... so hey at least I learned something! that didn't work! I'll keep trying though. I can't take over the world by giving up on easy cupcakes. maybe I'll try out making cake balls or something... maybe. orrrr just go the more barbaric route and scrape them out of the pan and eat them with my hands. only time will tell, really.

well that's it for me tonight, just wanted to check in. see you tomorrow- with ACTUAL cupcakes.
