Strawberry Lemonade Cupcake: Drink it in

On one dark and stormy night in San Diego...oh wait, it was all sunshine and cupcakes.  Two girls, Megan and Mo got together and began what will be an epic cupcake experiment.

Here we are on our maiden cupcake experiment, voyage number one.  We got together as friends and found that we both have a love of creating, baking and tasting cupcakes.  We want to share it with you now so every time we bake, you win.  Tonight we decided to try a strawberry lemonade cupcake.  This consists of a vanilla cupcake with a hint of lemon, lemon gelee filling and fresh strawberry icing, which turned out more like a gelee as well.  We will start to share recipes with you when we perfect them as for now we will share the photos and you will have to trust us when we say they are ridiculously delicious.

The cupcakes themselves came out a little overdone and after an icing explosion and a few test cupcakes we made notes on how to make it better.  We are learning how to use tools besides knives and spoons to make our cupcakes amazing.  Megan learned that when there is something that is clogging the tip of the icing dispenser to clean it out before you just keep squeezing.  (that's what she said). 

So for now we leave you with cupcakes dreams and sugar kisses.

Tip of the day: Don't put metal in the microwave.

For now, bake on.
