More cupcakes on the menu


These are some of the cupcakes I'll be adding to my cupcake menu. I'm still working on it though. Here are some of the latest flavours.
Casatella cupcake
I got the inspiration from a Sicilian dessert known as Cassatella Siciliana. This dessert is very popular here maybe cause we're so close to Sicily and some of our traditional desserts originated in Sicily.
This cupcake consists of a vanilla cupcake speckled with candied peel, chocolate chips and chopped almonds, it is then covered with a layer of marzipan and the topping is made of sweetened ricotta with candied peel and chocolate chips. This is one of my favourites.
This cupcake consists of half vanilla and half chocolate cupcake. It is then topped with a mixture of dark chocolate and white chocolate ganache and finished with some white and dark chocolate chunks.

Bostom cream cupcake

    Your creativity and variations using just white and dark chocolate & ganache amazes me. (Y)
    Did you use a blow torch on the white chocolate ganache on the half vanilla half chocolate cupcake? Coz whatever you did, it looks awesome :)
