Organic Cupcakes

Comments

Two notes about my cupcake philosophy: More cupcakes, less icing!
First. Kids need to know that cupcakes are good, regardless of the color of the icing…
I cannot count how many kids I have seen digging their faces into their blue fluffed out cupcakes’ icing, and actually never making it to the actual dough. I call it the icing tantrum…it happens almost immediately!!!
