Cupcakes and Cashmere

Spring Cakes

March 10th, 2010

The Whole Foods produce section offers such wonderful inspiration when I’m wandering the aisles in search of dessert ideas.  Cupcakes are nothing new around here, but once I caught a glimpse of the ripe berries, I knew they’d be the perfect finishing touch.   It’s easy to get caught up in all of the fancy cupcake recipes out there, but sometimes, simple is best; as is the case with white cake and strawberry meringue buttercream.

    If you love cupcakes, you have to try That Takes the Cake on Union St next time you’re back in San Francisco! Better than Sprinkles and Kara’s cupcakes. They have flavors like cosmopolitan with actual vodka! That threw me back a bit. The BEST strawberry frosting ever! I’m going to shut up and get me some now :)
