coming soon to a livejournal near you...

... A post about my adventures making vampire cupcakes today. Complete with pictures! Since I remembered I have a camera now.

Vampire cupcakes were inspired by humglum's adventures in SL as seen in this post. (I'll be sure to let you know if they attract any candy colored faerie wolves. I'm hoping!) My vampire cupcakes are a combination of sour cream strawberry cake with strawberry buttercream and chocolate cupcakes with ganache and almond slivers. Mmmm cupcakes.

My cake recipes were based on ones found in the New York Times Dessert Cookbook. Nigella Lawson's Sour Cream Strawberry Streusel cake was altered to omit the streusel topping. The Lee chocolate cupcakes are pretty much the same, minus their frosting recipe.

Don't forget your apron. I highly recommend the stylish and well tailored aprons from momomadeit on Etsy, which is where I got mine. It is lightweight, and has a pocket.

I hope you have enjoyed this epic cupcake entry.
