Is it just me (apparently not), or has everyone being lovin’ the cupcakes even more than usual lately? Every time I open up a blog post, it is about cupcakes — like here or here. There are even blogs devoted to cupcakes — like here and here. And if you search Flickr for cupcake photos, watch out, because there are 48,656 of them! I even had a friend recently serve cupcakes at her wedding, rather than the tradition layer cake. Myself, I am much more likely to buy a cupcake from the Chocolate Room or Magnolia Bakery than bake any, but love yummy homemade ones too. The frosting is the best part, which I can’t resist licking off the top before biting into the cake. Yum!

Oh I love cupcakes, they are so pretty and soooo yummy too (and so bad for you). For a nice picture of a cupcake have a look here http://waspgoddess.blogspot.com/2007/01/happy-birthday-dear-blog.html
Yes, I, too, will be serving cupcakes at my wedding. Not only are they delicious, they’re perfect for a 20-person wedding and don’t involve a cake-cutting fee. :)
You’re right; I’ve noticed cupcake-lovin’ a lot more recently, too. I guess a bonus for that, compared to cake, is the portion control…unless you eat more than one. :)
