VIRTUAL CUPCAKES.........Calorie FREE!!!!

I felt like baking this weekend...
With nobody to bake for I would have ended up eating whatever it was I baked
All By Myself.....
Well......I couldn't do that so I did the next best thing...... I love to bake and to eat Cupcakes.....
The "In" dessert at the present time
I love any kind of cupcake..
I prefer to make mine jumbo size....
Regular size cupcakes don't seem to have the same appeal to me......
Mini ones are cute and you can eat a bunch but
Jumbo Ones Are The Best.....
They just put you in a party mood.....
So without further adieu
My version of the calorie free cupcake......
Now if we can just figure out how to make the computer screen a
Scratch and Sniff............

chocolate cake.....peanut butter icing and chocolate chips


You know Ina must make these.....
Peanut Butter and Jelly!

every kids favorite....
OREO

Orange Cream....
I could do without the orange slice on top....
Maybe a real slice of orange would go good....

Lemon Meringue.....Oh they look heavenly!!

Just in time for Easter.....
Make sure the kids don't try to eat the pipe cleaners...

White cake.....white chocolate sprinkles.....
And Lemon Curd...

Key Lime......a big favorite down here in the South.

Espresso

dark chocolate cherry.....

Too pretty to eat.

A cute idea for a birthday or shower.....

Creamsicle.....

Andes Mint....now that looks fabulous.....
Try to smell the mint....

Like a Big Reece's Peanut Butter Cup....

caramel swirl.

Another cute one for Easter....

Or what about these.....
I have the recipe for these from McCormick........feel free to e-mail me....

Banana!!

It's beginning to be strawberry season......Don't these look good.

And last but not least....
The most creative cupcakes of all time....
Have a great weekend.....
And thank you for letting me bake for you today.....
Fat Free!!

All those look so yummy. Right now I could eat some of those, but would not be able to taste them with this head cold though. The espresso one and the Reese's one were speaking to me.

Oh yes, designer cupcakes! They all look wonderful; but I'm still having trouble getting use to them replacing a real wedding cake. Guess I'm just too traditional (or old!!) Hope this finds you well. We had several inches of snow yesterday, but the sun is shining today in beautiful Colorado. This is spring to me - snow/sun. Take care, Sally

Mmmmmmm mmmmmmmm good - I don't know which one was my favorite. I think I like the chocolate one with the mint.

Good idea - cupcakes without the calories.

I actually thought I would make some cupcakes today and after reading your post I think that is a "go." They are so darn cute but mine will be plain 'ole plain 'ole cupcakes, I don't think I can wait and try to decorate them. I might make some to take to daughter's at Easter. Those ones with the little baby birds in the nest is adorable for that.

Hi Sue

I used to make those Easter basket cupcakes for my kids when they were small!

I love the idea of putting cupcakes in a flower pot as if they were flowers .. very cute idea!

Daughter got a call on Wednesday at 4:00 a.m. from our home town Police Force..... It seems the "Big Boss" called them after seeing women in his closet and a dead man hanging from his Ceiling Fan.... Only Problem.......He doesn't have any ceiling fans in his house... Daughter...... having to make the decision what to do with him.....since we were home in Georgia sound asleep....and unable to hear even a bomb go off... Had the police take him to the local hospital...... Now the BB is heading towards 90 in a few months.... He lives alone and still drives.... We have been trying to get him into an Assisted Living Home for the past three years... He refused to budge.... He refused to let anyone into the house.. We also tried to get him to give up his license....to no avail.... The sad part is we could not get anyone to assist us... His doctor told us years ago that he was a grown man and we couldn't tell him what to do.... So back to the ER this Wednesday he was checked ...

TIME OUT..........................

In the best interest of my left hand I find it necessary to take a short break from blogging.......that nasty staph infection has refused to go away and with no signs of it improving I need to stop using the computer......every time I go online to type the finger resembles W.C. Fields nose.....not a good thing.....I hope I can return soon and catch up with my Weekends in Paris....but in the meantime...remember.....Don't garden without gloves!! See you all soon.....
