Gluten Free Caramel Chocolate Chip Cupcakes

Posted on April 5, 2017 by sparecake

A really tasty, light chocolate frosting (which for some reason I left in weirdo lumps??) paired with nice cupcakes. I recommend sticking with mini-cupcakes for these (which gives you about 36), as in full-sized cupcakes the bits sink to the … Continue reading →

Several years ago I made this for my own birthday. The rest of the party included a unicorn pinata, a cake that said ‘Ponies!’ on it, and candy poker. It was basically the best 6th birthday you could ever want … Continue reading →

Brown Sugar Cupcakes

Posted on March 30, 2012 by sparecake

Despite the pretty hefty amount of brown sugar that goes into these cupcakes, they are really not very sweet. To a pretty surprising degree. They are tasty, though, and the cream cheese frosting’s a grand complement. Ingredients: Cupcakes: 3 cups … Continue reading →

Surprisingly Good Carrot Cake Cupcakes

Posted on August 15, 2011 by sparecake

Last year I went to an event/competition called Cupcake Camp. Lots of us brought one or two dozen cupcakes, a few winners were chosen, and hundreds of cupcakes were consumed. I wasn’t too crushed that I didn’t win, as professionals … Continue reading →
