Mind sharing your favourite cupcake recipes??

KateLouise

I've really been getting to baking and decorating recipes but need a cupcake that is delicious as well as pretty to look at, and am looking for recipes that aren't just your standard vanilla or chocolate.

Anyone have any favourite recipes that they can share?

Looking down the track, I'm thinking i might make a cupake bouquet for LOs birthdays (possibly one small one each as their birthdays are 10 days apart and we'll do a joint party) so am also open to more kid friendly flavours.

Any thoughts/ideas/blogs? thanks

I haven't baked in awhile so I don't have any of my own recipes to share but below is the url to a great cupcake blog. She has a lot of recipes and decorating ideas.

There are some great ones here, dh's favorite is the first one- the cookies and cream. I use a swiss meringue buttercream frosting, one of my faves to make, always perfect and I change it up easily. http://www.beantownbaker.com/2011/02/my-favorite-swiss-meringue-buttercream.html#more

Here are some good ones too: http://joelens.blogspot.com/2011/03/10-fruity-cupcakes-to-bite-into.html

I love the chocolate peanut butter cupcakes on Annie's blog. My uncle even told me how much he liked them and he never comments on the food!
