    That is so creative! Calligraphy is the latest {and best} trend. What an interesting and adorable way to integrate it!

    I made these wonderful cupcakes for my co-workers and friends on Valentine's Day. They were SO EASY! I had to lower the time in the oven b/c the first batch baked quickly. I loved the chocolate glaze, very simple and decadent. I used a ziploc bag to pipe the white chocolate writing. I will definitely be saving this recipe!!

    What delightful memories these evoke?! Takes you right back to childhood, and these cupcakes were always such fun to eat, from the frosting on the top and the nifty cream filled center. But these look like such soft warm mmm! good chocolatey taste! And I even have the ingredients to make......

    Ok. I am not a fan of chocolate (I know, what kind of woman am I?) so I'd love to try these cupcakes dipped in a white chocolate glaze and make the writing from either red or pink frosting! I love how dainty the small cursive writing makes these cupcakes!
