Cupcakes from Sweet in Boston, MA
It was a gorgeous day yesterday. Warm enough to walk around in a light sweater bright and sunny. If fall is your thing you could not have been unhappy with a day like that in New England. My daughter, assistant cupcake tester extraordinaire and I headed north on our quest for one of the two Sweet cupcake shops in Boston.

The expressive, spooky eyeball with its limitless creepy possibilities. Read More→

Delicious Strawberry Cupcake Recipe
I had to find a really great strawberry cupcake recipe for my best friend’s birthday party for whom her cake of choice is ever only strawberry. She and her husband are both extraordinary chefs and have been working in the business of food for quite sometime. So after I offered my services to the birthday party hostess her wonderful grandmother that I would be in charge of bringing the dessert. I felt a responsibility, a challenge. Every time I do a cake I look for I think what most of us look for, that it absolutely has to be moist, have a distinctive melt in your mouth flavor, not overly sweet, and that it is paired with the best icing to enhance the taste of the cake.
