Green Tea, Lavender, and Honey Cupcake Bombe
View recipe: Green Tea, Lavender, and Honey Cupcake BombeWarning to you… this recipe takes days to make and requires an ice cream machine. The good news is that you can make it significantly easier on yourself by purchasing high-quality ice cream and making only the cake and frosting. These tasted pretty fantastic, but they were very sweet… which I like. The matcha powder…

Blueberry & Raspberry Ricotta Almond Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting
View recipe: Blueberry & Raspberry Ricotta Almond Cupcakes with Cream Cheese FrostingSometimes you want a tasty treat, but you want to feel like it’s healthy… I had such an occasion when I was expected to bring dessert but on the good-for-you side… I wanted to try using fresh almonds (hooray for vitamin E and “good” fat) instead of almond paste. I figured between the almonds, the berries,…

Yuzu White Chocolate Cupcake
View recipe: Yuzu White Chocolate CupcakeYuzu is a tart and fragrant citrus fruit that has been a mainstay on dessert menus. I see it often paired with white chocolate which was the route I decided to go. I know not everyone loves white chocolate, (“It’s not chocolate!” “It’s too sweet!”) but I disagree. I love a good white chocolate. The…

Chocolate Cupcakes with Chestnut-Fromage Blanc Frosting and Madeira Wine Glaze
View recipe: Chocolate Cupcakes with Chestnut-Fromage Blanc Frosting and Madeira Wine GlazeA couple of years ago I visited Portugal for the third time.

Pomegranate Green Tea Cupcakes
View recipe: Pomegranate Green Tea CupcakesTwo superfoods in one tasty cupcake? Why not. In this creation, the green tea actually takes a back seat to the pomegranate whose tart flavor takes center stage. The pomegranate flavor really shines is in the frosting (and the many pomegranates I topped each cupcake with)… I wanted to celebrate the pomegranate’s tartness and ended…

Eggnog Cupcakes with Bourbon Caramel Cream Cheese Frosting
View recipe: Eggnog Cupcakes with Bourbon Caramel Cream Cheese FrostingBeing someone who grew up in the northeast, but who is now living in California, it’s hard for me to feel very festive about Christmas without the snow and proximity to family.

Lemon Cup Cupcakes
View recipe: Lemon Cup CupcakesThese cupcakes make an impressive presentation. For sure. But they are also somewhat impractical. I was helping a friend who was baking for a competition and I really, really wanted her to win. So we made 12 of these gorgeous lemons and a bunch of regular cupcakes for pure eating. I wasn’t sure how they…

Kiwi Lychee Cupcakes
View recipe: Kiwi Lychee CupcakesFirst off, I have to thank my friend Margie for the combination. I had been thinking, “lychees and ???” for some time. I asked her for a suggestion to which she replied, “kiwi.” And I was like, “I have some of those at home!” Soon followed by, “hmmm, kiwi frosting, I wonder how that will…

Sweet Potato Cupcakes
View recipe: Sweet Potato CupcakesI will be honest, these cupcakes came about by accident. My intention was a honey-almond cupcake, but I had this newly discovered sweet potato flour and wanted to try it. As soon as I added the flour to the batter I knew I had something else on my hands. Quite anxious, I pushed forward with…

Almond Orange Cupcakes
View recipe: Almond Orange CupcakesThese cupcakes are very almondy. Almond is the predominant flavor but you catch the citrus as well, especially in the frosting. These cupcakes are great for the winter season and pair well with an Italian themed dinner. I made about 100 mini of these cupcakes along with 100 mini chocolate with salted caramel cream cheese…
