Cupcakes Take the Cake

JavaCupcake — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 19:14:58 +0000

If you know anything about cupcakes in the world of blogging, then you’ve probably seen the “Cupcakes Take the Cake” blog! The founding editors of this blog, Rachel and Nichelle, have been bringing us the best of the best in the cupcake world via their blog and were even guests on the Martha Stewart Show.

On Tuesday, January 26, 2010 Cupcakes Take the Cake featured MY CUPCAKES!! My Tree Hugger apple cupcakes were featured in their own blog post which included an introduction, three photos, and a snippet from my blog post!

For the last year, I’ve been following CTTC and been admiring the cupcakes they feature on their blog and dreaming of maybe, someday, making a cupcake good enough to make it to thier blog. They have a Flickr group where hundreds of cupcake photos are submitted weekly for a chance to be featured. With all those amazing cupcakes to choose from, I never thought I’d actually make it to their blog. I’m excited beyond words about this!! I’ve hoped and dreamed about this moment and alas, it’s happened!! I’m on Cupcakes Take the Cake!!! Yaay yay yay!!

I want to say a HUGE thank you to Rachel and Nichelle for featuring my cupcakes and recipe, it is a HUGE honor!

There are tons of “mommy blogs” out there, hey JavaCupcake could even be considered a mommy blog! Kim at momyear.com was inspired during her pregnancy by reading the blogs of moms, she said it helped her get through the hard times and now, she’s giving back to the mom bloggers community! She has taken it upon herself to highlight a new mommy blogger everyday for the next year! And guess who is Day 9 on the blog?? That’s right, JavaCupcake.com is!!! Thank you Momyear.com for the honor!

Here’s what Momyear.com had to say. You can find the article here.

Betsy loves everything about cupcakes. She’s also a stay at home mom of a 10-year-old girl and an Army Wife. In her blog, Java Cupcake, Betsy shares recipes and photos of her homemade cupcakes In addition, she highlights cupcake accessories and themed products.

I find this blog to be a breath of fresh air on the cupcake front. Not every cupcake is perfectly decorated so there is no intimidation in trying. Not even every recipe works out at all, and I think we’ve all been there. So if you feel the need to create some cupcakes, take a visit to Java Cupcake for inspiration.

Here’s a sampling:
Strawberries – You know that time of the year when strawberries are perfect and everywhere and you don’t know what else to do with them? Mmmm. Strawberry Cupcakes.

Peanut Butter Cups – Well, as Betsy says, they aren’t exactly cupcakes, but, ya know, they look like one.

When new recipes go bad – I love this. I’ve had more of my fair share of recipes end up in the trashcan. I love that she showed us.

Mini Cupcake Crawl – For those in the Seattle area, or if you plan on visiting.
