I was at Jones the Grocer with my Book Club last night, where we discussed Jeffery Sachs' Common Wealth with great zest. It was interesting that most of our discussion circulated around sustainable development. Talking about sustainable development, be sure to check out this movie called 'The Age of Stupid'. It is an amazing depiction of what we are doing to the world, but how this is truly reversible!
Becoming relevant once again, I sank my teeth into the most sinful delight called a cupcake at Jones. But I realized that if Jones had stripped off all the cool decorative icing and the fancy green marshmallow on top, I probably would have just chewed on the almond nougat instead. (Which by the way, is AWESOME. Buy it fresh and eat it on the way home.)
It's all that sexy decoration which makes people do a beeline for those cupcakes. So my assignment for the weekend is to make the best cupcake topping I can...delicious, creamy, and swirly.
Before I sign off, happy cupcaking!
Maybe I'm being too ambitious, but I came across a site where this woman MADE this flower icing! Wouldn't hurt to try!!
Chocolate Cupcakes with Butter Cream!
Multicolored icing on the cupcake! Yummm...this would probably might be the easiest to make.
