A Different Kind of German Chocolate


German Chocolate- the cupcake that started it all. I tossed around the idea of starting to experiment with cupcakes, so my dad requested that I make some for his birthday. He loves German Chocolate! I wanted to do something a little different than just the normal German Chocolate cupcakes and so it was born. :) This is a German Chocolate cake with ganache filling and coconut pecan frosting. It is all homemade- nothing from a can. If you love German Chocolate, you should try these! Ganache filling makes this even sweeter. This has been voted the favorite cupcake by most that have tried my cupcakes.

Strawberry Shortcake

My mom loves strawberries and has been asking for the longest time for me to make her a strawberry cupcake. This is what I came up with. I wanted to do a strawberry shortcake type cupcake, so I decided to do a white cake with chopped strawberries, a strawberry cream cheese frosting, and topped it with a strawberry slice and pink nonpareils. I don't have a recipe to give, because this is something I came up with on my own. This cupcake is so light and yummy! I love you, mama. I hope you enjoy these :)
