Fall is Here...

... And so are some ridiculously cute fall themed cupcakes!

Fall is my favorite season (if you can really call it a season in Texas). I love the fun of Halloween and the family togetherness of Thanksgiving. One thing I always equate to Fall (like I'm sure many do) is candy corn!  My mom loves candy corn and would always have a jar filled with it when we were growing up. So this year I thought I would use those little sugary delights as my inspiration for my Mom's birthday!

Starting first with the Candy Corn Vanilla Cupcake!  My Vanilla Cupcake was transformed into a yellow, orange and white tribute to candy corn. I know there are people who love candy corn and people who definitely do not. The great thing about today's cupcakes are that you can be either and still enjoy! As long as you like a Vanilla Cupcake with Vanilla Buttercream frosting you won't have a problem making friends with this Fall treat.

Moving on to the second cupcake of today, another candy corn inspired treat that is quite versatile.

The cupcake pictured above is a (NEW FLAVOR ALERT!) Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcake with Vanilla Buttercream frosting. A decadent chocolate cake with a peanut butter surprise inside reminiscent of a chocolate peanut butter cup!. Topped with with Vanilla Buttercream in the candy corn color scheme, you could really pick any flavor cake you want!

These would be perfect for any Fall or Halloween themed party or, you know, just because. Head over to the Monthly Specials page for a little something to sweeten the deal (ahem, free cupcakes).

I hope everyone is having a great start to the week and is enjoying the what's left of the little cold snap we experienced over the weekend!
