Been away so long....

Well it's been ages since I've updated this blog. There is a reason I promise. Tyler and I have been taking a break for about a month now to plan out our summer happening and revamp this blog. So that's been taking up much of our time. BUT!!! there are things to look forward to. YBF is returning at the end of April with events happening all the way through fall. Here's a list of what we've got on the calendar so far:

Scrambled Egg and Bacon Cupcakes

So I've been horrible at posting lately - I do apologize. I'm in the midst of tuning up and tweaking the site, so I've been having a harder time staying on top of my posts. Regardless, this was my favorite out of all the cupcakes. I am still perfecting each of these cakes, but if you're going to try one of them - I'd suggest this one. So without further ado - the good 'ol how-to:

English Tea Cupcake with Lemon and Cream Frosting Recipe

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!

Guys - someone in England is READING MY BLOG!!!!!

So I stand corrected. You don't drink English tea with cream at all - and you definitely don't drink it with cream AND lemon. But if you are making cupcakes - you can do whatever the heck you want. So live on the wild side: try the impossible, the English unfathomable - and put lemon AND cream in your tea cupcake! American freedom never tasted so, so lemon-y.

Yogurt Parfait Cupcake Recipe

As promised - the first of three recipes. The cake part of this cupcake is VERY light and airy. It was pretty funny picking it up and comparing it to the rather heavy bacon cupcake. Even in cupcake form - the parfait still masquerades as the "light" option - though in this case it's grams that determines this - and definitely not calories.
