A different kind of cupcake.

This is a different kind of cupcake for sure. From November 17-22, Victoria's Secret is giving away these "Lacie panty cupcakes" with any purchase over $30. You can choose from a selection of Strawberry Delight, Whipped Vanilla or Cocoa Cream.

Cupcake FAQ's

1. What happens if the cupcakes fall after being baked?
a. When you test the cupcakes before removing them from the oven, they should spring back when lightly touched. Most of the recipes in 101 Gourmet Cupcakes state "bake for 15-18 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched." But you need to take into account that some ovens vary slightly. The correct tempature is 350 for most of the cupcakes. But your oven may cook hot or cold. Watch the first batch and calculate the time needed for your oven. Some of my first batches "fell" and sometimes they still do, depending on if I am truly paying attention or not. Practice does make perfect; and if that fails, you can always frost them before anyone sees them! No one will ever know.

2. Is the Chocolate Ganache suppose to be runny?
a. No. The ganache will set up as you let it stand. If you need it to be ready sooner than later, place it in the fridge and stir every 10 minutes to distribute the cool chocolate. This recipe is rather easy, almost too simple really. The consistency you want is thick fudge in order to frost. It will then harden even more once you let your frosted cupcakes rest before serving.

3. What cupcake is your favorite?
a. Asking me which cupcake is my favorite is like asking me "which child is your favorite?" I can honestly say that I like them all. But if I have to narrow it down to just 3 (I can't do just one or two), it would be Nanaimo Brownie, Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup and Key Lime Pie.

4. Where do you find your paper liners?
a. I have several places that I find my paper liners and decorative holders. If you are local (Salt Lake City area), Orson Gygi's, Robert's and Hobby Lobby have great selections. If you want endless possibilities, try amazon.com. That is where I found my orange sunflower holders used for Good Things Utah on 9/18/2009.
