Spring has sprung!

First of all, thanks for stopping by to check out the blog. Upgrades to the blog will be coming soon. For now, and for the foreseeable future, the Sweetshop is in my kitchen. But someday when my kids are off to school, I'll have an actual bakery. Keep in mind, if you're here in the Triangle, everything you see on the blog can be purchased for your consumption. Heck, if you're not local but you're willing to travel you can enjoy my treats too.



Well, the ornamental pear trees have bloomed, clover is taking over my yard, and swimsuits are out in the stores. That can only mean one thing: Spring! And in Spring a young baketress' fancy turns to thoughts of love. The love of pretty confections, that is.

First up are these Butterfly Cupcakes. I got the idea for these from the book Hello Cupcake! I'm looking for an excuse to make them in pink and purple, so if your little girl loves butterflies and has a birthday coming up, send me an email!
