Hello - I discovered yesterday what a blog actually is… And then I discovered that there are foodie blogs… And THEN I discovered that there are cupcake blogs… Where have I been?

I am enthralled with your cupcake creativity and the way that you have put everything together.

I am off to the shops to pick up some bits and bobs so that I can make a few of your cupcakes. I will then taste and report back!

Tell me a bit more about the photos you have put up. They are great!

This is brilliant. Chockylit - one of the most tempting recipes yet. Although I have only tried your Hummingbird Cupcakes (several times) and your lychee/coconut ones, I’m tempted to give these a go. :)

It’s been a while since this post was published, so I’m not sure if you’ll be able to receive this comment. However, I tried this recipe just last week and everyone loved it! I daresay, the mix of the cream cheese frosting with fennel seeds tasted like a spur of love - the fennel definitely added a boost of flavor to the frosting.

However, I’d like to know if you ever considered or thought of a Cherry Vanilla Cupcake? I’ve looked around for such a recipe, but to my sadness, I’ve found none!

I would experiment but my mom has been on a healthy-food kick lately and complains that by me providing such baked goods, there’s no way she could fend off her wants and lust for them. However, I did see a recipe [for Chocolate chip cookies] using insta-vanilla-pudding mix. Do you think that could work?

Virtual CSA Box: Fennel…

Fennel is a vegetable and herb used widely in Europe but often not as well known here in the States. Even those of us who enjoy the mild anise taste of fennel seeds may never encounter a fresh fennel bulb……

If I don’t say otherwise, then I am referring to regular old sugar (or flour or whatever)…
