Award Winning Cupcakes!!!

I am so thrilled to announce that Alexandria's Creations has {wait for it} won an award for the Best Halloween Dish!!! Well it's not exactly from any top food Institute or anything but I am still proud, a customer placed an order for 'something creative' to take to a Halloween party and what she got was a creepy treat, I just love when I can be creative! I decided on Red Velvet Cupcakes topped with Edible Blood and Candy Broken Glass!!! This was especially fun for me as it was my first experience with making candy glass and though I may not make it often it is definitely something that is going down in my handy recipe book!!! Remember Alexandria's Creations is here to turn your dreams into memories and Lisa gets bragging rights among her friends all year for the delicious and creative cupcakes she brought to the party!!!

Creepy!!!

All ready to go impress everyone!

Chicken and Waffle Cupcakes... {say it isn't so}...

I am a huge fan of the southern favorite, which thankfully is migrating its way all over, Chicken and Waffles and with my love for trying new things I didn't see a reason why this could not be adapted into a cupcake! The result... a light and fluffy vanilla buttermilk cupcake with a maple syrup glaze and a maple buttercream icing, and I forgot the best part... there is chicken baked into the middle {what a delightful surprise}. This cupcake is perfect to WOW your guests at a brunch or for any special occasion really {These babies make Monday morning worth celebrating}. I will advise that they need to be consumed immediately, I don't think that will be a problem anyway... good thing I bake everything fresh to order!

I also wanted to add that I visited Georgetown Cupcakes in Washington DC and gained so much inspiration, this visit makes me even more passionate about my craft and I will be trying out some of my recipes with new ingredients soon so stay posted!!!
