Rosy Wedding Cupcakes By Little Paper Cakes

Are you guys familiar with the jewelry company, 1928? These rose cupcakes from Little Paper Cakes reminds me of some rose stud earrings that I wore in grade school.

Neapolitan Cupcakes from I am Baker!

One of the very first blogs I started following after I began blogging was I am Baker. She loves Neapolitan desserts and is always coming up with new Neapolitan creations, like cakes, cupcakes, cookies, and bars. These Neapolitan Cupcakes are chocolate with vanilla buttercream and strawberry chocolate coating. The strawberry coating can also be adapted to almost any flavor and color! Check out the whole post here!

Chex Mix Cupcakes

What do you get when you mix Chex Mix and cupcakes? The perfect sweet and salty dessert! Cupcake Project developed this recipe that you can use nearly any type of Chex Mix for! She does mention to keep things balanced, make sure you use a frosting close to your Chex Mix of choice to play up the flavors. You can even get the Chex Mix flavor in each cupcake by substituting the crushed snack mix for some of the flour in the recipe. Check out the recipe here!
