Cupcake #307 **sold**

You just have to take a look out your window to understand the inspiration for this cupcake. Great billowing clouds of bright golden yellow contrasting with deep burnt reds, soft beige, and flecks of fiery orange surround our house right now, simply stunning. Now close your eyes and think of the flavor of pumpkin pie. A big story, for one little cupcake, enjoy!

Cupcake #298 **sold**

Brrrr, there wasn't any frost on the pumpkin this morning, but it was awfully close! This yummy pumpkin cupcake starts with a spice cake. Topped with thick pumpkin cream cheese frosting and a scattering of coconut. All sitting on an olive green background. Warm colors and warm thoughts for a happy autumn!

Cupcake #281 **sold**

Soft, neutral, understated color is the story of this cupcake. Whites, cream, a little warm beige...but look a little closer. Do you see the subtle speckles of almost violet, or the pale wash of yellow, and the luminous red reflecting in the shadow side of the marshmallow? The more you look, the more you see. The background was kept especially neutral, the color of bleached seashells, just to allow the cupcake to shine. But don't let the color fool you, this little number came from the Atlanta Cupcake Factory, and was pure mouthwatering bliss. The cake itself is pumpkin, the icing had a touch of caramel I think, and the top? A toasted mini marshmallow. A wonderful taste of autumn, enjoy!

Cupcake #277 **sold**

Cupcake #277 is topped with a thick swirl of cream cheese icing and a flash of chocolate drizzle. The cake itself is chocolate, sitting in a simple paper cup. The background is deep brick red, changing to a burgundy in the shadow. Warm autumn colors, yum!

The daily cupcake is going to have to take a bit of a break, as we are going on a quick art tour. We're heading to New York City this week, as Kathrine will be in the Gracie Square Art Show on the upper east side of Manhattan on October 2nd and 3rd. Then up to Cape Cod, where Scott will be doing a gallery talk about his Mediterranean Boat Series at the Calhoon Museum of American Art in Cotuit on Tuesday Oct 5th. If you are in the area his show is up until October 30th. Then we may or may not be continuing our stay in Greenwich, Connecticut. Kathrine is on the waiting list for the Bruce Museum show the following weekend, we are just waiting for a phone call to let us know if she's in. So long story short, we don't really know when we'll be back, so keep checking in. We'll post along the way to keep you all in the loop! If you use Facebook, you can follow our progress through Scott's Cupcakes page, so when you find it, like it! And we'll be in touch

Cupcake #261

You can tell fall is in the air, even the cupcakes seem to be changing colors! Creamy butterscotch icing tops this sweet chocolate number. You can see the deep orange background reflected back in the frosting. It will be interesting to see if the change of seasons brings about more gold, pumpkin, and deep burgundy to Scott's palette. Stay tuned!
