Choco Chai Cupcakes

So....
I had never tried Chai tea in my life! Last week I got introduced to it, by a great friend at work, and I loved, loved, loved it!. The smell is just so awesome and soothing, and the taste....well, I just felt like I was back home just sitting on the couch reading a great book.
And, after many many cups of Chai last week, all I could think about was chai cupcakes...and chai cakes, and chai this and that!
I decided to try my luck with the cupcakes and the frosting...
Let me tell you, they came out delicious!
Just the perfect amount of cocoa and chai, sweet but not too sweet, and the frosting just complemented the cupcake, sweet, spiced with the chai powder...

Just Yummy,

I couldn't eat just one, I mean...I had to taste them to make sure they were perfect!

I know your mouth is watering right now, so here are some pictures and hope you like them!

New blog discovery

I just found a website the other day while getting my daily dose of Bakerella who else, also, was trying to find out how is she doing, turns out her mom was accepted to be her donor, I'm so happy for her!!!! well......I was reading her post about some cookie flowers, they looked adorable, I wouldn't have the heart to eat them
they were so cute! and looked absolutely yummy and being the curious cat that I am, went straight to her website her name's SugarBelle, I found the most adorable cookies in her page, you should go and check it out!!!
Also found a recipe for Royal Icing which will come in handy next week because I'll bake some cookies and a cake for my other Nephew (so sweet!!! He's 7 now) (Omg I'm so Old!)..well enought about talking to myself.....

Go check out her fantastic and creative work...

My Nephew's birthday cake

Well, last week was my little nephew's 9 birhtday (little??..He's already taller than me), and being his favorite aunt :)... I promised him to make his birthday cake, It had to come out awesome.
Well ... I spent 3 weeks making little fondant brown and golden bricks, baking and making frosting, mushrooms and brown thingys with feet, clouds and bushes.
Finally Saturday at aproximately 11:45 am, I declared it finished and here are some pictures, please don't be rough with me, this is actually the first time I use fondant to decorate a Cake,

After 3 days of hard work, It was so worth it to see his little amazed face,

This is how it came out....

This is my nephew Omar, Oh I love him so much, this kid is awesome! ♥

The seal of approval.... This was so worth the 3 some days I spent making this cake....

And finally... the crime scene...

Chocolate, chocolate and chocolate cake.
It was delicious...

Huge Apologize

I'm sorry to all who took the time to read whatever I wrote the last couple of moths, I know I've been neglecting you all, but that's not bacuase I wanted to, been having a rough couple of moths, with work mostly, issues at my parent's house and all that.

I promise I'll try to be dedicated to this as I am with baking and creating.

Please look forward to my next post. I made a cake for my nephew's Birthday last week, and to be honest, I came out pretty awesome....

thinking about coffee

After somehow managing to have probably the worst week of the year so far, I'm finally getting out of that Fuzziness that wasn't letting me concentrate, I know that maybe I'm the only one who's ever going to read this, but it's ok I love it.
So get out of that fuzzy nasty mood and get cooking tomorrow I will get all the things necessary to start making those deeeelish cupcakes... I thinking Chocolate with coffee....what do you say? ....For the frosting I don't really know yet... You'll just have to wait.

Until tomorrow,
I'll see ya! ♥

First project

Well, toda I woke up thinking what am I going to do this week, so I guess I'll start with cupcakes, they're delicious! so my guess Is chocolate? or vanilla?  mmmmm tough desicion!
Well I'll go get ready let's see what comes to mind. Maybe instead of making those cupcakes, I'll surprise you with something else.

See ya!
