Confetti Cupcakes

My brother-in-law's wedding was held last week and I had the privilege to bake some cupcakes for guests who arrive at my in-law's house in the morning.

Weddings are always cheerful, joyful and colourful (?).

I found these confetti sugar decoration in the baking store. 
 Aren't they just colourful, cheerful and happy?

When you place them in a batter...
The colour contrast is just.. so fun! 
(Reminds me of the cartoon Up!)

Mix them up...
and you'll still see them swimming in your batter.. all cheery and happy!

You bake them and you find them in your cupcake..

 and eat them with a big smile on your face...
Like this boy!

You may find the recipe for this fun and cheerful cupcake by Sweetapolita  here.

or just add half cup of these sugar decorations into your favourite Vanilla/Butter cupcake recipe! 

Enjoy! :D

Peanut Butter Pound Cake with Peanut Butter Glaze

I have a jar of peanut butter at home. Hardly touch it. I don't know why. So I figured that I should make use of it before it expires.

Also because I bump into this recipe by Recipe Girl.

 I just love baking with chocolate chips. See how lovely they are swimming in the batter.

My Peanut Butter Pound Cake!

Look at the drizzle... make you drool.

It's a dense cake. 
Not many people like dense cake but I did enjoy a slice of it.

Many commented that it's very sweet. So you may want to try having it without the glaze.

If you are BIG FAN of peanut butter, try this recipe!

Enjoy!
