Breakfast for Cupcakes!


This last weekend I attended the 17th Beatnik night over at my old house. Beatnik is a night, cheekily named, where friends and strangers are welcomed into someone's home (in the past it's been my old house or a neighboring "boys" house) and asked to share something with all who have gathered. It once started as a place to read and explore prose and literature - but has evolved in to a night of sharing inspiration both prepared and on the spot. So being that inspiration and preparation are now integral parts of Beatnik's festiities - I thought I'd come with my most current form of inspiration. Food. 

The Breakfast Cupcakes. Each cupcake is based off of a different common breakfast item. The top one is A cup of English Tea with Cream and Lemon, the middle one is Scrambled Egg and Bacon, the last one is A Yogurt Parfait...



Recipes coming soon!

  3. Where in the world do you drink a cup of english tea with cream and lemon?
    Here in England, certainly not. Milk, not cream, in tea, cream's fine in coffee, but in tea? Urgh!

    And the lemon's a touch that's instead of a dairy product, not as well as.
    Try a drop of lemon juice in tea with milk and watch the milk curdle and precipitate out.
    The cakes look good though!

  4. @soubriquet - Thanks for your clarifications on proper tea. Since these are cupcakes - I knew I could take a few liberties. :-) But here in the states, where we butcher tea time and Americanize it to the max, I enjoy a cup of tea with cream (I really detest milk in tea...) as well as with a little lemon zest. But that's a rarity for me - I normally drink it just straight.

    @Mike Posey Yes! I will be making them again soon. I need to work on the recipes for two of them a tad more.
