Deep Chocolate Cupcakes with Marshmallow Creme Filling Topped with Dark Chocolate Ganache



A client needed cupcakes for her son's soccer team party. I immediately thought of these cupcakes - a rich dark chocolate cake base filled with a buttery marshmallow cream topped off with a dark chocolate ganache and three marshmallow stripes across the top which matched the team jerseys. She purchased three dozen cupcakes with the plan to have some left over for dessert that night. My client informed me that the cupcakes were all eaten within five minutes not only by the boys, but the coaches and parents as well! 


Take a peak inside this beauty! The marshmallow filling is creamy, buttery, and delicious. The chocolate cupcake is moist with a deep chocolate flavor that is subtly sweet which plays off of the marshmallow filling. This cupcake is not only a client favorite, but a family favorite as well.

Vanilla Cupcakes with Creamy Vanilla Buttercream



Vanilla cupcakes are always a well received gift. Recently I gifted a dozen to a friend, and not only did her eyes light up but so did her kids! They dove into the box right on the doorstep and began to devour them!


These cupcakes are packed with pure vanilla flavor. The frosting is creamy and rich - yet not too sweet.  The sprinkles top off the cupcake, and add a bit of whimsy. Some people may think that a vanilla cupcake is boring, but let me tell you, these are not. Not only will they satisfy your sweet tooth, but the flavor will win you over for good. 



Just look at that cupcake! Don't you want a bite? I know I do.

Blueberry Muffins



One of the best ways to start the day is with a delicious muffin. These blueberry muffins are packed with blueberries, and have a great blueberry flavor. The muffins pictured above have a lemon sugar topping which adds a nice crunch to the tender muffin. Or maybe you prefer a crumb topping...



These blueberry muffins are topped with a classic cinnamon streusel that adds a bit of extra sweetness and a slight crunch to the muffin.



As you can see, the muffin is loaded with blueberries, and has a moist, tender crumb. Blueberry muffins are the perfect start to any day, and make any day feel special. Call and place your order today!

Midnight Chocolate Cake with Fluffy Chocolate Buttercream Frosting


Valentine's Day is tomorrow! What are giving your valentine? Maybe this midnight chocolate cake with fluffy chocolate buttercream?



Look at that deep, dark chocolate cake with the pillowy chocolate frosting. This frosting is the lightest frosting you will ever taste, not overly sweet, yet has just the right chocolatey intenseness for the cake.


The frosting is made with semisweet chocolate and butter. The semisweet chocolate contrasts nicely with the dark chocolate cake and allows both flavors to shine. This cake also makes great cupcakes, and can be decorated to your liking. Order yours today - there is still time to order for Valentine's Day (and have it delivered to your door)!

Strawberry Cake


Strawberries are starting to arrive in the local farmers markets, and I just had to purchase some. I decided to whip up a light and airy cake with big strawberry flavor. The cake is a lightly flavored with vanilla, topped with strawberries, and then sprinkled with a large grain sanding sugar.


To top it off, I sprinkled on a bit of confectioners sugar. Just look at how light and moist that cake is! This is a strawberry cake at its best! It is great for breakfast, or for a little snack any time of day.

S'more Brownies


Brownies are quite possibly one of my most favorite treats. What can top that? S'more Brownies! It has been in the 70's here in Phoenix, and I am longing for summer, so I decided to whip up one of my favorite summertime treats with one of my most favorite desserts. The brownie has a graham cracker crust, and roasted marshmallows on top. The result: decadence.


Just look at the chewy, chocolatey brownie studded with chocolate chips, topped with gooey marshmallows, and a slightly crunchy bite from the graham cracker crust. These brownies are always a crowd pleaser with kids and adults alike.
