JUST CAKES

It's been a busy couple of weeks as far as

cakes and with the Farmer's Markets

thrown in there too let's just say I have

been buying a lot of eggs!

Here are some of the cakes that have

gone out the door lately. I still forget

to take pictures sometimes, but I am

getting better at that.

I am thinking that at this weekend's

Farmer's Market I may bring cupcake

cups. I sold those at the big Artisan

Market in December and they were

a big hit. So big in fact that I ran out

immediately. And I had people

coming back looking for more.

What I do is make several flavors of

cupcakes and buttercream. I cut each

cupcake in half, put the bottom of a

cupcake in a clear cup, a layer of

buttercream, the top of the cupcake,

a layer of buttercream and then

repeat. Each cup gets a lid on top

to keep it fresh and I attach a spoon

to the side of the cup. It makes a

great portable treat that you can

eat as you are walking around or

you can buy several and give to

friends or take home for desert

that night.

The most popular flavor was the

dark chocolate cake with fluffy

white icing in the middle and the

whole thing topped with chocolate

buttercream.

For this weekend I am thinking

about these combos:

Dark Chocolate/Peanut Butter

White Cake/Raspberry & White

White Cake/Coconut Buttercream

White Cake/Lemon & White

Chocolate/Chocolate

These cups are $4.00 each,

which I think is a pretty decent

deal for 2 freshly baked cupcakes

in a to-go container nowadays.

Sounds good? Which one would

you buy?
