Wedding Fever

Apparently October is the time to get married! Cupcake Carousel has been busy with weddings all month!

Below are some great shots we've taken!

Vanilla cupcakes with a hershey's kiss in the middle, and Chocolate cupcakes with Boston Creme in the middle. They also ordered cookies.


Don't you just love the bride and groom cupcakes at the top??


Mocha and Blueberry Cupcakes, with real lavender flowers!


I loved their cake topper! Silver balls seemingly floating on the cake!


Chocolate w/ Almond, Vanilla w/Coffee and Pumpkin with cream cheese! They were married at a garden, so we added flowers to their cupcakes!


Love their topper as well, I made tiny kissing love birds out of chocolate to match their topper and invitations.

Cookies!!!

I subscribe to a number of blogs, one of them being the incredibly creative How Does She?com.

She recently ran a post about the PERFECT Chocolate Chip Cookies. I have been on what seems a life long search for the said Perfect chocolate Chip Cookie recipe. And since I have tried so many, I can tell by the list of ingredients/quantity if I even want to try them out. And I did!

I'm glad I did, although I wouldn't classify it as necessarily my 100% never fail favourite cookie recipe, theses were incredibly good. Sort of crunchy on the bottom and chewy and yummy on the inside. They were delicious. Larry and I just had to snack on some last night with milk (and I don't even like milk!!).

Two thumbs up from us!!
