Update

I haven't updated this thing since MAY?! Holy mother of all cupcakes! I don't know why it took me this long to update this blog, I know why though I got my hands on the new iphone 4 and I've been pretty busy updating other things, pretty whack! I apologize.

Since I am up baking some goodies for a sweet 16 this Saturday, yeah no big deal, and its 4:50am and I'm jammin' Mariah Carey, annoying my roommate, I decided right now it will be a good time to update this thing!
Well, where do I start? I haven't stopped baking I just got a new toy, woman-child. Anyways, I won't waste anymore time I'll just fill the rest of this entry out with pictures and a description of what has been done these past few months!
Enjoy!

ANOTHER NEW ADDITION WHOOPIE PIES


Then finally, the "Typical cartoon cupcake" you know whenever someone draws a cupcake they ALWAYS put a cherry on top, but who the hell eats cherries on top of cupcakes? save those for banana splits and ice cream and when you really need a favor




Anyways, that's all,

Win Win Situation Cupcake aka (un)frozen banana cupcake

I have a cool, weird, tasty, nice combination cupcake to share.

Remember that cool trip to Santa Cruz Boardwalk and all that carnival food you swear you have to have, but instantly regret it when the cashier tells you "okay that'll be 10.98" and all you get is a damn supposedly foot long corndog and its like short of a foot and ends up going to waste after you ride that crazy roller coaster? Well, this cupcake is nothing like that trip. Instead its like that frozen banana pop you really wanted to spend your $20 on but just bet your friend you could eat that foot long corn dog in 80 seconds and well, you lost a bet and your corn dog, but don't worry with this cupcake you win...

I give you the frozen/unfrozen banana cupcake
F.A.Q

Can one add peanuts? sure.
How about no peanuts? sure.

stick them in the freezer for about an hour and its frozen or keep them at room temp and its not. Whatever you choose it won't be a bad choice.
its a 'win win situation cupcake' its all up to you how you choose to eat it and you will be glad you went with your choice ;)

(ps if you can help me make a banana look appealing, uuh let me know..all I think of is dirty thoughts when I look at a banana, whoops...)

What is your favorite band shirt?

Did this video you should watch it or not whatever, its cool


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPf9uHZMj3w



I'm usually being a wall flower and quiet at a show so I thought this would be fun to do while I hung out outside waiting for bands I never got to see...

Maybe I'll be asking you this question soon!

A few things I need....

-Shirts made for this Summer
-more buttons for this Summer
-more patches for this Summer
and a table at sound and fury or for beartrap or pow to play so I can use some of their table space <3 :)

Also, I need a ride to California Uber Alles Fest if you can help me out that'd be radd. I got gas money and if I trusted my car I would go, but I don't know, I'm tempted so bad I just want to enjoy bands and get a few interviews for my documentary..
Anyways, I give you the COWlifornia
why cow? I don't know for some reason when I think of cream cheese I think of a cow and so this version of a cupcake I made with lemon cream cheese instead of a lemon buttercream and they were pretty yummy I also tried this new brand called Follow Your Heart, it wasn't bad. I manage to stop at one cupcake and my roommates ate the rest..ha.




(vegan friendly)





Maybe I'll introduce this cupcake at the show on Friday
Cherry Cola Cupcake...

Meet SammieCake (famous kid classic sandwich + cupcake)

Here it is.
A fairly new cupcake.
Who does not enjoy a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with bananas?
Well, if you don't, then maybe you should stop reading...now and if you do I have a special cupcake. Its a sammiecake get it? sandwich and cupcake? it made more sense before I said it.

if you have a better name let me know

Here its featured on a platter next to mint chocolate cupcakes and peanut butter bombs, and giant chocolate chip cookies
They were left last but people finally gave in and bought them I'm not sure what or how people reacted towards them, but I don't think one can go wrong with peanut butter..right? Unless you hate peanuts


Whole wheat cake, peanut butter, jelly, and caramelized bananas.
Eat. Your. Heart. Out.
or whatever

The Lady Gaga "Cherry Cherry BOOM BOOM!"

Fans of the gaga or just fans of cupcakes.
This is for you.

I will admit I've listened, jammed, and sang along to a few gaga songs. I'm not the crazy fan who will dress up like a condom or light bolt to prove I listen to her or "express" how I feel towards the world, but I listen to her.

While making this cupcake I didn't want it to look like shit piled on shit I wanted it to look cute, yummy, and delicious and the original name for it wasn't "the gaga" and my skills in the kitchen have improved. So I thought it would be fair to blog about this awesome cupcake again since it looks way better than the first time I've ever made it. So, I just had this song stuck in my head forever after spending a few days with one of my younger sisters, the 15 year old one, and hearing the words "Cherry cherry boom boom..." how ever else it goes constantly coming out of her mouth other than "whatever jan, shut up jan, omgah jan." and being schooled that it was a lady gaga song.

That is when it hit me
THE LADY GAGA!
"cherry cherry BOOM BOOM!"


(Chocolate cherry cake, cherry buttercream, cherry sauce, chocolate ganache)

HEY! HI! YO! HOLA!

I'm not dead the cupcake gods have not executed me...yet! I'm still alive!
But I will admit I've been lagging on this blog. Lagging hard. I apologize.

Personal problems have gotten in the way of that. I'm just getting back to 'normal' living. I won't bore you with all that, but just know that I will post a new cupcake picture in the next blog (later on today?)

For now, I've been getting so much support and orders its awesome.

As of Feb. 20th cupcakes at shows moved up to $1.00 ( I know, I know) .50 more isn't that bad! Its because ingredients for these bad babies are so so EXPENSIVE!! Of course they were before, but for some reason they risen up more than what I have in my pocket and have you seen gas prices lately? holy cup-cake! they are insane. And the bus now charges 1.25? really? Do I want to keep change in my pocket and who walks around with one damn quarter? not me! I rather walk around. What does this nation think we are robots? Oh, yeah, they do. I even higher the price for a dozen, not by much, I think a $1-1.50. Don't worry I'm sure I'm still the cheapest cupcake maker selling all this vegan gold to yall, so YOU WIN! WOOOOOO! Anyways, I just wanted to update this ghost town blogspot just in case someone anyone reads it and just assumed I was executed by the mighty cupcake gods. I'm still here. Destroying in kitchens and filling up those bellies.

GO TO THIS SHOW! Support these rad bands and this awesome venue ;)
