The "Nothing Special" Cupcakes...

So these didn't come from any specific recipe this week, but rather a pic I saw on Epicute which can be found here. I cheated and used canned frosting (gasp! I know) because A) I wanted the clouds to be shiny, B) I needed the frosting to be super white and I don't particularly like the taste of all-shortening frosting (and I didn't have colorless vanilla extract either) and C) I was really bummed I wasn't able to make the cupcakes I originally planned on making (like these). I did use Martha Stewart's Buttermilk Cupcake recipe just so I wasn't COMPLETELY half-assing it. And the rainbows were Airhead Sour Belts I found at my local liquor store where I was picking up some spirits to drown my sorrow that Christmas was officially over and I STILL didn't have a pony. Santa sure is a douche. So here you have it. I say they were "nothing special" cause that's what Ken originally told me they were before changing his opinion for the blog. Yeah, like your face! BURN!





Ken's (2nd) Taste Text: "They were very good. No exotic flavors or anything but sometimes simple is delicious. Only thing I didn't like was the candy rainbow. Not only did it taste like eating a stick of Chapstick, but working for Disney, a rainbow isn't something you want to eat around a bunch of Alpha males."

So you're saying you know what sticks of Chapstick taste like? Is that similar to your diet of paint chips?
