Vanilla Cupcakes are Anything but Plain

by sugargeek on November 9, 2009

In honor of National Vanilla Cupcake Day on November 10, I present this photo of a beautiful cupcake set from Clever Cupcakes of Montreal. I’ve always been a fan of vanilla cake, but sometimes “vanilla” is perceived as boring. Not so! This pretty birthday set is proof. And what girl wouldn’t love those sugary butterflies? Simply beautiful!

This is Caramel Apple Day! Here is your dose of sticky, apply beauty. This is how I like my caramel apples, too. No nuts on the outside. Just lots of thick, buttery caramel. Enjoy!

Rhubarb Dessert

by sugargeek on September 7, 2009

When I was a kid, we had lots of rhubarb around the house. I don’t know whether it was planted there purposely, or whether it was just a weed. Being resourceful and sort of hippy-ish, my parents would gather it and cook it into foods. Let me tell you, you have to add a lot of sugar and stuff to make rhubarb really taste good. We had rhubarb tapioca, rhubarb pie, and rhubarb cobbler, to name a few. You have to enjoy a tart flavor to eat a lot of rhubarb.

Here is a beautiful rhubarb dessert that certainly looks sweet! Do you like rhubarb?
