Cupcake #348 **sold**


Layers of chocolate and cream are topped with a fresh raspberry. Surrounded by a background that would have once been called "dusty rose." A warm, slightly neutralized pink, it makes the chocolate sing, and the white of the cream pop! Enjoy, only 17 more to go!

Cupcake #252 **sold**


A sunny lemon yellow cupcake on a cool blue background. Simple, but not too sweet! Two of the three primary colors are represented here. The blue is a wee bit paler, and a little bit more on the purple side than what my computer monitor is showing. Blue is one of those colors with an amazing reach, it can stretch from blue green (turquoise) to almost purple, and we still call it blue. But I can tell you, if you have a traditional French themed kitchen, this will fit right in!

Cupcake #246 **sold**



Today's cupcake has all the makings of cupcake bliss. Red velvet cake on the bottom, (it's a southern thing,) thick cream cheese icing, topped with a plump pecan and a scattering of chocolate curls. All surrounded by a pure clean blue background that makes the pale yellows and browns in this piece shine. Enjoy!

What a beauty, a chocolate cupcake topped with butter cream icing drizzled with chocolate raspberry sauce. Yum! The background is a beautiful deep pink just to give you another hint of the raspberry. Have you noticed all the reflections in the chocolate? It positively glistens! Cheers!

Cupcake #236


Today's cupcake is simple, yet stunning. Vanilla cake topped with a triple dose of chocolate, surrounded by a beautiful deep pink. This color is made by mixing two different reds, cadmium red, and quinacridone magenta, with just a touch of white. Such a pure clean color it practically sings! Enjoy, and we'll see you again tomorrow!

In celebration of Scott whizzing past 100 fans on his Facebook page, (yes he has one, look up Scott's Cupcakes,) we've decided to break pattern and put up this beauty!

So if you've been loving the cupcake series, but have been wishing you could get one just a bit bigger, here is the perfect piece. Like the others, it is on a deep canvas, with the sides painted black. And to make it even better Scott is offering it at 1/2 price. $150. As always, it's first come, first serve! Have a great day!

Cupcake #214


What a sweet thing! Pale pink with pink sprinkles, the topper is a fancy sugary doodad. (Way to go Kathrine, they say the nouns are the first to go!) Surrounded by a fresh spring green, this little cupcake longs to be in baby's room! A great shower idea, or perhaps the perfect thing for the grown up little girl in your life! Enjoy!

Cupcake #210 **sold**


This little cupcake is a pretty collection of soft citrus colors, lemon, and orange, the background can probably best be described as pink grapefruit! Topped with a candy orange blossom, and curls of white chocolate. And the best part is the model is in my fridge! The news you may not know is that Scott's cupcakes can now be found on Facebook, so if you are a facebook junkie like me, just search for Scott's Cupcakes and "like" his page. Then you'll get a reminder each morning just before I post a new one. Cheers!

Cupcake #208 **sold**


Today's cupcake, the triple chocolate threat! Chocolate, chocolate, and more chocolate, surrounded by a raspberry pink background. A sweet piece for a little girl, or a big girl! Group this with other chocolate favorites, or other cupcakes with hints of pink, either way, it's sure to shine!

Cupcake #197 **sold**


Chocolate and strawberries, always a favorite! Three tiny fresh strawberries crown today's cupcake, sitting on a mound of vanilla frosting with a splash of chocolate glaze. The background is a pale celery green, a fresh color that pairs nicely with chocolate brown. Be sure to check in tomorrow for a new cupcake!

Cupcake #193 **sold**


Today's cupcake brings a fresh burst of pure color! I love the combination of pink and orange, which is an analogous discord for the color theory junkies out there. Topped with a delicious little pile of fresh blueberries, this cupcake is looking for a good home.

Cupcake #187 **sold**


Mounds of rich cream cheese icing top this cherry cupcake. All dressed up in a fancy pink paper cup, and topped with a fresh cherry, you just know it's going to be good! The bright red background leans just a bit towards the orange side just to show off the pretty shades of pink in the cherry. If you have a bit of red in your kitchen, this one is certainly for you, or powder room, or office...you get the idea! Have a great day!

Cupcake #178 **sold**


Mmmm, a strawberry-lime cupcake, in those pretty sorbet fresh colors. Topped with a pair of strawberries, this little sweetie is sure to make your mouth water! And we know that red and green are complementary colors, but when they are made into tints by adding white, they still are complementary, even though they are now peach and mint!

Cupcake #173 **sold**


I've been looking at this cupcake all morning wondering just what it is about the combination of yellow red and white that I like so much. It just hit me...France... this is a traditional french Provencal color palette. Go to the South of France (where Scott and I met 14 years ago) and you'll find tablecloths and napkins, and pottery all decked out in these fabulous colors! But if you can't get there anytime soon, sit back and enjoy this beautiful cupcake!

Cupcake #163 **sold**


Have I ever mentioned how soft hearted my husband is? A few weeks ago I started telling him how a couple of cardinals had built a nest in the climbing rose on our front porch. He didn't pay much attention, until I told him we had a baby bird. When I pointed out the nest and baby he started watching, checking every couple of hours on the progress of the wee one. Well he came in yesterday pleased as punch that Mama and Daddy had taught the little one to fly, and he witnessed the first flight! So this coconut cupcake is in honor of our cardinal family, they have left the nest, but can still be heard chirping in our woods!

Cupcake #159 **sold**


Double white chocolate, need I say more? Probably not, but here goes...white chocolate chips on top of white chocolate icing, a grown up treat. Surrounded by a beautiful mossy green background. This piece plays well with many others, especially deep blue, or red backgrounds, even a warm taupe, or chocolate brown. This little cupcake doesn't need to stay in the kitchen, bring a smile to the powder room, or a guest room. The colors will work anywhere! Enjoy!

Cupcake #157 **sold**


Today's cupcake, a combination of chocolate and strawberry is sitting pretty on a golden wheat colored background. The cup is a warm pink, and the fudge icing just sparkles. And the fresh strawberry on top finishes it off right. A warm hello to all the new cupcake fans we met in Birmingham AL this weekend, welcome aboard!

Cupcake #155 **sold**



A simple vanilla cupcake, piled high with frosting, and sprinkles! Sprinkles are amazing, little dots of color, that don't taste like much, but almost everybody loves them! Surrounded by a deep blue that is almost the color of wild violets. Well, the wild violets that grow in my yard anyway! Enjoy, and we'll see you tomorrow for a Saturday cupcake!

Cupcake #152 **sold**




OK, here we have cupcake #152, such a girlie little thing, I love it! Swirls of icing make a bouquet of pink roses. Sitting in a fancy pink cup and surrounded by a taupe background, it is as sweet as it can be! This was scanned on a different scanner than usual, the shiny surface reflects more than I like, but you get the idea!
