Say it ain't so!

Can this possibly be true??

I recently read an article about food trends (yes, apparently I even like to keep up with trends in the culinary world) that are on their way out.

Number one on the list?  Cupcakes.

I am choosing to believe that the author of this article was misinformed.  Cupcakes are the most whimsically delicious of the dessert treats, if you ask me.  And ever since Carrie and Miranda enjoyed those confectionary delights from the Magnolia Bakery on Sex in the City, lots and LOTS of people seem to agree with me!

Cupcake shops are in booming business all over the place.  In fact, even here we have a cupcake "boutique", The Cupcake Shoppe.  I have personally sampled their cupcakes, and just as you'd expect- nothing short of delectable.  And dainty.  And cute.  A dessert girl's dream come true.

So I say pooh-pooh on you, cupcake haters.  In my humble opinion?  Cupcakes are here to stay.
