Cupcake #292 **sold**



There is something about the combination of steel blue grey and deep chocolate brown that I just love. Both are quite neutral, so neither takes center stage, and they just get along so nicely! This piece could add a little smile to a formal dining room. Just because we don't frame these doesn't mean you can't. Imagine a wide linen liner, and an ornate silver frame, stunning!

Cupcake #284 **sold**


Deep, dark, sinfully delicious. This is definitely a cupcake for grownups! It starts out innocently enough with the chocolate cake, but the incredibly thick deep chocolate icing has a surprise. A touch of cayenne pepper, not enough to taste "pepper" just enough to feel a bit of after burn. Some of the flavor may be attributed to the red sugar crystals that it was rolled in, I thought I detected a hint of cinnamon. But the overall flavor was so mesmerising it's really hard to say for sure! Surrounded by a deep somewhat neutralised grape color...somewhere between fine wine, and the final colors of a sunset. A beauty!

Cupcake #215 **sold**


Today's cupcake definitely fits into my "grown up cupcake" category. Beautiful analogous colors, blue and green, framed by a soft neutral background. Simple, sophisticated, just lovely. This little number would look so sharp in a group in a formal dining room, be brave!
