So, last night I made 3 different kinds of cupcakes for a baby shower: carrot with cream cheese icing, strawberry with strawberry icing, and vanilla with chocolate ganache. I normally don’t taste the raw batter when I’m baking unless it’s chocolate. I don’t know what made me taste the carrot cake batter (after I had it already in the liners), but I’m glad I did. I realized that I had forgotten the sugar! What a disaster that would have been! I scraped the contents of the liners back into the bowl and added the sugar. I will always taste my batter now.
Thanks to the ladies for trusting me with their cupcake needs! And for $$!

Well you know: the carrot cupcakes were amazing and everyone who had one said so.
I loved the vanilla and unfortunately never got to taste the strawberry. It was awesome though and I can’t wait till the next one.
