Unfortunately, I didn't win the contest. Melissa got first place, I got second, and Amber got third. However, I won on Taste, Melissa won on creativity, and Amber won on presentation. Melissa got the most overall points though.
Are you ready to hear what the cupcakes were?
I made Waffle Maple Syrup Cupcakes With Maple Syrup Buttercream Frosting. Maybe I lost because they had such a long name. Just kidding.
I made a pancake batter from scratch and put maple syrup in the center of the batter before I stuck them in the oven. They cooked on 350 for about 14-16 minutes. I also made the buttercream frosting from scratch. Since I put the strawberries on at night, they ended up getting red juice on the frosting when the morning came.
Melissa made dark chocolate cupcakes and a light whipped Dulce de Leche frosting
Amber made Chocolate Sundae Cupcakes.
Both of them did an incredible job.
That was fun and your cupcakes definitely were tasty!
ReplyDeleteAll of you had terrifically creative cupcakes! I didn't get to taste any of them, unfortunately.
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever lil cupcake. I never would have thought to use pancake batter to make a cupcake. It makes sense though. They have the same texture. I think y'all are awesome for doing the contest. You three are really talented.
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh. that actually sounds good. good job there. i never thought you were the cooking type.
