New cupcake book and sticky minis

I got this fantastic new cupcake book for Christmas from a co-worker pal It’s got a lot of different cupcake recipes than the one I usually use (that I bought at Christmas Tree Shops for 5 dollars) and a lot of great tips and clear directions. It does a lot of different takes based off a simple recipe. I made what the book titled “caramel-covered tea cakes” (I’m...

A series of unfortunate events with cupcakes...

Let the holiday baking commence!

This year, I am heavily responsible for the treats portion of my family’s Christmas Eve. With my immediate family alone, we make 6 (mom, dad, 3 brothers and me) and we have quite a few additions this year as far as significant others and cousins and aunts and uncles. I’m also baking for my co-worker buddies at school. I’m excited to have so much reason to bake!

My package from my Tumblr Eat Up buddy was part of the reason, but there’s also been a lot of goodies being left in the teachers room from...
