If fairies were real, I'm pretty sure these would be their magic wands. Flitting around and granting wishes and collecting teeth and doing whatever else it is fairies do, they must burn a lot of calories. A frozen banana with sprinkles would be the perfect snack for a busy sprite.
When I was a kid my mom had a cookbook all about how to make creative cakes with nothing but a round cake pan, a bundt pan and a square pan. She made caterpillars and castles and Snoopy and all sorts of amazing creations but I don't think I ever saw a donut. It's so simple it just slipped under the radar.
Brownies are pretty exciting on their own, then you put them on a stick and everybody gets all jazzed, then you dip them in colored candy and it gets kind of swoony in here and THEN you come out with all sorts of sprinkles and I'm pretty certain we've lost several to a case of the vapors.
Eating a whole box of donuts usually isn't something to be proud of but I think we can forgive it this once.
I'm changing my "lose weight" resolution to "eat ice cream for breakfast with a candle and sprinkles every day" promise. Shouldn't I do what makes me happy?
I don't normally think of a wedding cake in terms of crunchiness, but I'll take it! Sprinkles forever! crunch crunch crunch
Get all your wedding jitters out at Wedinator!
As much as I say I want to totally start decorating all my food and making it look all cute and everything, I have to admit, I never follow through. Someday I'll make an adorable sandwich, guys, I promise!
There is little doubt that cupcakes are truly the fashionistas of the dessert world. This season it's all about tiny hats that look like mini versions of themselves. How chic. What's next? Purses that look like pies? Oh cupcakes, so irreverent!
I know a few of you would be stoked just to get a cone full of frosting. You can have it and I'll take the real cake.
Sometimes too much can be beautiful. This donut just wouldn't be the same if it had a conservative amount of icing and sprinkles. Pile it on! No regrets!
Do you like crunchy cake? Because think about it, if you put enough sprinkles on something it adds a whole lot of crunch texture. I love the creaminess of the frosting, I wonder how the crunch adds to or detracts from the experience?
Normally I'd scream overkill at a cake this busy but there is some amazing balance going on here. A striped rainbow heart inside a striped rainbow cake? A rainbow of fondant sprinkles so perfect they must have been placed there by very patient elves? I swoon for this kind of overkill.
I can't decide if I want these to be sundaes or cupcakes more. They look so incredibly perfect I can't really imagine changing them but as it is, they kind of hurt my brain. HALP!
I don't think you can make an actual, normal cupcake with booze in it, so this is a perfect variation. With all the new cupcake and whipped cream flavored vodkas on the market now you can make all sorts of boozy faux baked goods. This is the kind of baking I can get behind.
Though not as cool and refreshing as an actual ice cream cone, these macarons are probably the most sophisticated ice cream cones you can get.
