Flavors: Monday, January 23rd

Posting the blog a bit on the later side because apparently when the Giants won last night, the entire internet broke.  Seriously, I had to live without Twitter for, like, twenty freaking minutes! It was awful! How were any of you supposed to find out what I was eating, or if I was itchy, or if I was saying “Yay Giants”? HOW WOULD YOU KNOW?!!?!

For those of you who were disturbed by my Twitter silence, I assure you- I WAS saying “Yay Giants”.  Pinky swear.

It means more if you sparkle.

Not that we’ve survived til Monday morning and our precious internet has come back, we were anticipating posting something big, but, um…..we’ve got nothing.  I mean, I’ve got SOMETHING exciting to tell you, but it’s not going live til this afternoon, and I’ll be out and about when it actually happens.  I hate it when I have exciting stuff to talk about and I can’t do anything about it just yet. Blargh.  More of a reason to follow me on Twitter where I can bring you exciting cupcake developments as they happen while I’m standing on line at Ikea or fighting over $1.99 a pound pork chops at Waldbaum’s.

Regardless of all that nonsense, IT’S A SUPER EXCITING CUPCAKE DAY! It’s Lunar New Year, meaning it’s time to release TWO super limited edition flavors- like “we made them for today, and then you have to wait til next year to get them again”.  With the Giants, the New Year, and the return of the internet, you’ve got THREE things to celebrate right now, and celebrations need cake, right?

Clockwise from front: Black Sesame, Green Tea Mandarin, Creme Brulee, Dark Chocolate Dulce

Black Sesame: Black sesame cake, vanilla buttercream, white and black sesame seeds

Green Tea Mandarin: Mandarin cake, green tea buttercream, honey glazed mandarin orange
