Vanilla Bean Cupcakes with Italian Meringue Buttercream

It's very rare that I step back from my work and think, "That looks good enough to eat." (I'm my worst critic, though.)

But after finishing these, I did step back and think, "That looks good enough to EAT."









A beautiful yellow butter cake is spiked with real vanilla bean then perfectly portioned into 24 delicious cupcakes. The frosting can be flavored just about any way you like; these beauties have Chocolate Italian Meringue Buttercream and Raspberry Italian Meringue Buttercream. The cherry on top in this case is a perfectly plump fresh raspberry or homemade dark chocolate shards.

As always, every cupcake is scratch made using real butter, cane sugar, and the finest of ingredients, including fresh berries and Ghirardelli chocolate.


These incredible beauties are $15 for a dozen: one dozen cupcakes come in a smaller white box and two dozen come in a large white box with a "window" on top (pictured above).
