I can not wait until my next birthday when I can wear an, unique, one-of-a-kind tiara (like the one pictured here<). Apparently the tiaras will even fit my large noggin.

I think I need the Leaning Pisa Candy Container filled with candy as well? Or perhaps the Eiffel Tower Candy Container?I think I’ll just add both to the wish list.

PERILOUS PINK: Think of it as a cautionary tale for the tutu-wearing set. “Pinkalicious, the Musical” tells the story of a little girl who develops a full-body blush after bingeing on pink-frosted cupcakes - and that makes her feel pretty blue. Based on the book “Pinkalicious” by Elizabeth Kann and Victoria Kann, with music by John Gregor. So if you are in, or wish to head to NYC call for reservations: (212) 352-3101. Saturdays and Sundays through Feb. 25 at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.; $18. Vital Theatre Company, 2162 Broadway (fourth floor), at 76th Street.

So with a minor snow “storm” upon us Dana and I decided to experiment with a new recipe, Sticky Toffee Pudding Cupcakes from the book 500 Cupcakes by Fergal Connolly. We knew after reading the recipe this would not be your standard cupcake. The first two things we noticed were no frosting and the recipe called for dates. Onward we pressed and found the recipe pretty easy to complete. After the 25 minute cook time we had 12 cupcakes to sample and share. These are more like a mini coffee cake and as the author indicates are best served warm. We omitted the parchment paper and used regular cupcake liners which created a slightly gooey bottom…we think.

What could be better than to tie the little goodies up in! I personally have never seen the green & white at wholesale before. I think this is an absolute score find these at tildas.com They really need to come out with wholesale spools of pink & white and brown & white! This is a start however. Pair these twisted twines with plain white, or even pink bakery boxes for a cute and adorable way to present your baked goodies!
