i did a cupcake demo yesterday at healthy living. i bought in salted caramel, cookies and cream, chocolate peanut butter and red velvet! thank you to everyone that stop by to talk and try the cupcakes; i had a lot of fun!

i'm trying to take a new photo everytime i bake cupcakes to update the photos on my website...here are my first 4...

rocky road

cookies and cream

salted caramel

easter cupcakes

i delivered these eastery cupcakes to city market, healthy living and sweet clover this morning. the cupcakes on the top left i call 'birdie nest.' they are a vanilla cupcake with toasted coconut and a robin's egg candy...they are so cute and so yummy!

salted caramel cupcakes!

i made these salted caramel cupcakes (bottom row, right side) for city market, sweet clover, and healthy living's tuesday's delivery. i think they were a delicious combination of sweet and salty. i topped a chocolate cupcake with a caramel swirl buttercream, drizzled it with homemade caramel sauce, added a little caramel bit on top and then sprinkled it with a little sea salt...yummy!

coffee and donut cupcakes!

i made these cute coffee and donut cupcakes for delivery this morning...i wish the photo would have come out better because they were so adorable!

my little cupcake will be at healthly living starting this thursday!

the food buyer from healthy living emailed me yesterday asking if i'd be interested in selling my cupcakes at their market. i'm vey excited!

these cupcakes were delivered to city market and sweet clover this morning...strawberry, s'mores, chocolate peanut butter and maple walnut.

city market cupcakes for 3-18

i delivered these four flavors to city market this morning...chocolate raspberry, mocha, cookies and cream and sundae. i put gummy raspberries and chocolate covered espresso beans on the chocolate raspberry and mocha cupcakes. the sundae cupcakes look so pretty; they are so colorful :)

city market cupcakes!

i dropped off my first delivery to city market this morning. the shelf wasn't quite ready yet, so i didn't get to see the cupcakes on the actual shelf...so, i stopped by after work to take a peek. they looked so cute! and a bunch of 4 packs had been sold! there was only one box left of the chocolate peanut butter...it seems to be the favorite.

sweet clover market cupcakes!

i just delivered my first cupcake order to sweet clover market. i made three different flavors: fauxstess, vanilla squared and neapolitan dynamite.

i ordered some chocolate transfer sheets a couple of weeks ago to use with chocolate for chocolate toppers. i think they look really pretty on top of the strawberry buttercream.

macarons from mirabelles

i got these macarons at mirabelles this afternoon...they were pretty tasty.

sneek peek at some exciting things to come!

it all started with this cookbook that my boyfriend got me for xmas. i've been wanting to learn how to make macarons for a long time, but every recipe i found was so intimidating! this cookbook is great and really explains everything step by step.

and i love marshmallows...really, really love marshmallows, so i got this cookbook so that i could make my own.

and then a thought occurred to me...i should make these and maybe sell them at the farmers' market...and wouldn't it be cute if the logos were as cute as the my little cupcake logo? yes, of course it would be cute :) so i contacted sarah, who made my little cupcake logo and gave her an idea of what i'd like...this is what she came up with.

aren't they the cutest! she is so talented...if you need a logo or artwork...you should contact her. stay tuned for macaron/marshmallow/cupcake updates :)

sweet clover market!

i am so happy that my little cupcakes are going to be available at sweet clover market in essex starting on monday, march 8th! sweet clover market is located at the essex shoppes across from the cinema :)

new cupcake cookbook!

i was so excited to find this cupcake cookbook at the christmas tree shop for $3.99. i've seen it before, but it's always been about $13. one thing i love about it so much is that it has a photo of every recipe; i absolutely love when cookbooks have a photo for every recipe and won't buy a cookbook if it doesn't have a photo for most recipes.

i decided to try out two new recipes that looked really yummy. first was the malted milk cupcake. i already have a malted milk cupcake availabe, but it consists of a chocolate cupcake with malted milk frosting. this cupcake has malted milk and brown sugar in the cupcake recipe. this photo is the photo from the cookbook...i think the frosting is too simple, but i love the chocolate chips in the cupcake!

the second recipe is really adorable and with easter on its way, i thought this cupcake would be perfect. it's basically a vanilla cupcake with toasted coconut made to look like a bird's nest. it's topped with a little candy egg.

this is how my malted milk cupcake turned out...i piped the frosting out with a decorating tip and topped the cupcake with a whopper. the verdict: the cupcake is too sweet! i think i'm going to stick with the chocolate cupcake with the malted milk frosting.

this is how the bird's nest cupcake turned out. i think it's really cute and really yummy. look for this cupcake as easter approaches...

it's official...

city market, in downtown burlington, will carry my little cupcakes in a 4 pack starting mid-march! i'm so excited!

exciting stuff might be happening!

i spent all day making and packaging cupcakes in my new containers for an exiting, but still secret, opportunity that may be in the works. it's not 100% definite right now, so i don't want to jinx myself, but as soon as i know for sure i'll let you know :)

new sprinkles!

i went shopping today and got some supplies for the biz...i got these pretty new sprinkles at homegoods...you can't tell by the picture but the white sprinkles are a shimmery pearl color. they are very pretty and eastery :)

getting married?

arranged on this cute 6 tiered cupcake stand, my little cupcakes would be the perfect dessert for your special day. email michelle@mylittlecupcakevt.com today for price and availibility!

msc-s'mores cupcakes!

this month, mary ann from meet me in the kitchen picked s'mores cupcakes. okay, i must admit, i'm kinda cheating this month because i've already made these cupcakes...and let me tell me, they are a huge hit! i actually made them a couple of times last summer for the farmers' market and they sold out both times!
i opted not to make the very complicated-sounding cooked gelatin frosting, instead making a yummy marshmallow fluff frosting. i also added a hunk of hershey chocolate to each cupcake and sprinkled each with crushed graham crackers.

valentine cupcakes at the williston farmers' market!

i was so excited for the williston farmers' market today because for 1.) it was the day before valentine's day and for 2.) i hadn't done a market since december. i decided to do vanilla squared, red velvet and fauxstess with a pink center and pink loop de loop. i just got a new piping tip and used it for the first time on the pink vanilla buttercream. i think these might be some of the prettiest cupcakes i've done to date...vanilla squared, red velvet and fauxstess

i bought a new blue table cloth and some darker pink circles for my table the other day. i think the blue/pink combo looks really cute with my logo.

lots of people came by the market today...it was a great day, and i sold out around 1:00!

happy birthday, trinket!

rachel, the owner of trinket on church street (as well as sweet lady jane and tribeca), asked me to make cupcakes to celebrate trinket's one year birthday! she ordered three different flavors...black forest (not shown), chocolate hearts vanilla and vanilla hearts chocolate. i think they came out really pretty...

chocolate hearts vanilla

vanilla hearts chocolate

msc coconut cupcakes-not baked :)

i was supposed to bake coconut cupcakes for the martha stewart cupcake club by the 15th, but i didn't bake them. you see, i'm on this crazy food diet thingy where i'm not eating sugar...yes, you heard me right...not eating sugar. so, i just couldn't bring myself to bake them and not taste test them--coconut being one of my favorite flavs and all. so, when i'm back on the sugar, i'll whip them up...but for now, i'll have to take a pass. hope you understand...
