Cupcake #290

Cupcake #290, do you know what that means? Only 75 more cupcakes to go! But, back to the present, today's chocolate raspberry truffle cupcake is sitting pretty on a warm brick red background. Although they look like very different colors, the raspberry red, and the background sit very close to each other on the color wheel. One leans closer to the cool side of red, and the other a warm red leaning to the orange side. Did you know there was a such a thing as a cool red? Enjoy!

As autumn approaches even the deepest south, it is time to roll out the warm colors of fall. A criss cross drizzle of caramel on the thick cream cheese icing is a beautiful, yet simple decoration. The cinnamon, or warm brick red background surrounds the foreground, pushing the yellows a bit, making them glow. Caramel apples by the fire anyone?

Scott just can't help himself sometimes.... Today's cupcake, chocolate, piled high with white frosting, and topped with, well, looks like "Scott" cookies to me. The background, a warm brick red has a subtle line of dots just about cookie level to make sure you get the joke. An amusing addition to a kitchen decorated in warm earth tones, your office, even the man cave! Enjoy!
