Inspired by the Julie and Julia blog/movie, I have started this blog to go through Martha Stewart's cupcake book that was recently given to me from a friend. My goal is to work my way through the book creating all of the different recipes! Although her book has 175 different cupcakes, I might group similar ones together just for time's sake. I will be sure to be as descriptive as possible of the whole process and how everything turns out.

#4 Blueberry & Whipped Cream

Sorry it has been so long since I’ve posted but not to worry! I have definitely been baking plenty in that time so get ready for a massive amount of blogs coming very soon!

Back in July I made the Blueberry and cream cupcakes that were one of the first recipes that I feel like I flopped. I am such a big fan of blueberries but these were kinda off. They seemed too soggy to me because the blueberries burst inside the cupcakes and they were so juicy that it kinda soaked the bottom and that bothered me. 

I took this picture of them in the early morning so it came out kind of dark… 

The frosting to go with this cupcake was actually whipped cream. I thought that would taste very lovely together! But I had some issues with the cream and it wouldn’t hold up to make it for the time when people were actually going to be eating cupcakes at my work. So, out of panic and frustration, I ran to the store before work and bought a couple cans of whipped cream…

Everyone at work said they tasted good but I knew they were definitely not in my top 5 or anything. I guess since I only have 4 blogs on here it has to be in my top 4! But just a sneak preview, there are much better ones coming up!
