If I were a cupcake, what kind would I be?

If I were a cupcake, I’d be something wholly fictional, like a Vanilla-with-Chocolate-Ganache Raspberry Parade. A treat with vanilla bean cake that’s covered in a gooey chocolate ganache and filled with raspberry preserves and maybe, just maybe, a dollop of white chocolate ganache too.

Perhaps Main Street Cupcakes will add this to the menu?

Sure, it’s overboard and maybe a bit too sweet, but this cupcake works hard at balancing all that heaping ganache with something remotely healthy like antioxidant-filled raspberries. But you did ask what kind of cupcake I would be.

Now, if we’re talking about what kind of cupcake I would eat… well, that’s a different story.

I’ve set up this blog to further compartmentalize my thoughts (I also have a tri-training blog, a first-house blog, a new media blog) and use it as a vent for all my cupcaking escapades and inappropriate thoughts about ninjas. You’d think the two weren’t related, but you would be so wrong.
