Cupcake #345 **sold**



A little chocolate mocha bliss for our cupcake fans! At one time or another in art school you can count on having to produce a "monochromatic painting" as an exercise. Which is essentially what this is, one color, in this case brown, with white added to make tints, and black, to make shades. The frosting does seem to have a touch of pink, and the cup, a bit of yellow...but it is close! Now I want some chocolate covered coffee beans!

Cupcake #250


Wow, cupcake #250 kinda crept up on me, no fanfare, no trumpets, it just happened! It is a simple chocolate cupcake, more of a milk chocolate, with a soft creamy brown icing. The background is a delicate robin's egg blue. I love the almost antique looking combination of this blue and brown. Very sophisticated, you could hang this in the most elegant dining room. And I hope you will!

Cupcakes x 3 **sold**


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! This sweet group of three, unlike all the others, measures 8" square. 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 #169 **sold**


There is something magical about sprinkles. Little round bits of what? Cornstarch & food coloring? They don't taste good, they don't taste like much at all. But if they are on a cupcake, or donut, or anything I want it. It must be a nostalgia thing, looking for that rush of a six year old at a birthday party! This cupcake is covered in magic, sprinkles that stuck in some spots, and not others, I think the top must be a meringue lined with ribbons of fudge. All surrounded by a beautiful apple green. Perfect!

Cupcake #143 **sold**


We're back! And after a week away may we present a sweet mocha cupcake surrounded by a soft sage green. A simple little piece that will hang nicely just about anywhere, bring a little smile to that quiet little corner in the living room, or the office! And in keeping with our promise of two cupcakes a day for this week, it's time for me to move on to cupcake #144!

Cupcake #135 **sold**


Here's a super early cupcake for your Monday morning! We are just about to get back on the road from Houston to home. Yay! The interesting thing about this cupcake is the background, the rich reds and burgundies look like velvet. And the red shows off the mocha frosting and shiny cherry. Hope your day has a cherry on top, and we'll be back on schedule with our mid day postings tomorrow!

Cupcake #94 **sold**


I just love this little cupcake, it's so formal looking, and somehow strikes me as a little art deco. The tight edges in the swirls of icing, as well as the curl of pink chocolate matching the edge of the cup. If a cupcake could be architectural in design, and I guess it can, this is a great example! Surrounded by a mossy green to complement the rosy pink, what can I say, it's a beauty!
