Cupcakes...cupcakes...cupcakes

Some yummy cupcakes we had this week

The S'mores cupcakes were a big hit (graham cracker cakes filled with homemade marshmallow and chocolate custard..topped with more marshmallow that I torched)



hen everyone's favorite..our take on "hostess" cupcakes (but much better). Rich chocolate devil's food cake filled with homemade marshmallow creme and topped with dark chocolate ganache:




Finally some cupcakes we did for a customers bookclub meeting (the book was the zookeepers wife): They were strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate.

NEW ITEMS!!

Here are a few of the new items we had on Friday....


First we have some new rolls to go with the soup and salads....these are healthy harvest rolls....made with bulgar wheat, oatmeal, whole wheat flour, flaxseeds, etc....Delicious!!



Next is a chocolate malt cake with milk chocolate ganache...we also had cupcakes like this. The cake was yummy with a light taste of malt. I had a customer ask me what malt was...hasn't this been around for 100 years (it's like asking what vanilla or chocolate tastes like...)Then she made a face like I had said the cake was chocolate "dirt" cake....really, I know we are in the suburbs but can't people broaden their horizens a little bit. I assured her it tasted wonderful but she wanted a "plain" chocolate cake. The joys of unadventurous eating!!!!


Lastly this is a christening cake we did for our good customer Kathy R.
