Cupcakes, who doesn't enjoy a little cake made just for them?

Cupcakes are such a special treat. They are the perfect size for anyone to enjoy. Cupcakes are probably the easiest cake to serve, no cutting, no dishing, just pick up and eat goodness. There's so much you can do with them, from the flavors to the decorations. While most of the cupcakes you are going to see here were made for kids, I never think of them as a kids only cake. Actually, they can be quite sophisticated. I think that's part of the reason why they have become so popular. By definition, they are small cakes baked in a mold that is shaped like a cup. So basically, any type of cake you can dream up, you can turn into a cupcake.
