Cupcakes are most definitely the 'in' thing right now and can be found worldwide. The great thing about these treats is that there are hundreds of flavours out there to try!
Whenever I come across a bakery or tune in to 'DC Cupcakes', I am inspired and attempt to ice my own cupcakes they way they ice theirs. Unfortunately, mine never turn out the same so I shall be sticking to the classic icing sugar and lemon juice method for now.
Pintrest has recently become the centre of my world and I came across some pictures of some amazing cupcake designs! I have never seen anything like it. I also discovered some of my own images that I had taken whilst in Saigon at 'Fly Cupcakes' which is a tiny store (30x10m!) that sells amazing cupcakes, but the extraordinary thing is that they actually bake the cupcakes in the actual shop. Behind the counter. I don't think I have ever seen anything like it, only in Saigon, eh?

Ciao bellas!
