Well, actually 6 because we scratched one we didn't feel too good about (if our eyes don't light up when we are describing a flavor, we know it's not going to be a successful cupcake!)
#1
Raspberry Lime Chardonnay...Chardonnay cake filled with raspberries & cream, topped with lime frosting, sugared lime zest and a pretty berry (looks like Christmas, tastes like summer!)
#2
Cocoa cake, filled with vanilla cola pudding, topped with a fudgy (is that a word? if not, let's make it one!) cola glaze
#3
Mud Pie...chocolate cookie crust under a chocolate cake, filled with whipped chocolate mousse, topped with Kahlua frosting, cookie crumbs & dark chocolate sauce
#4
Coconut Lemon Haystack...vanilla cake, filled with lemon curd, topped with coconut milk frosting, coconut & lemon zest (this is the goodie that replaced our failure - formerly known as "seedy lemon"...I tried to be too fancy and colored the frosting with tumeric and it was NEON - yikes! And the seeds didn't go over too well either!)
#5
Caramel Apple...vanilla bean cake, filled with an apple pudding type thing (kinda like the inside of home-made apple pie w/o the chunks), topped with vanilla sweet cream cheese frosting and lots of caramel! Ooey, gooey good!
Opal helped me pick the apples from our yard - they were pink inside! Crazy Alan did some grafting magic to our tree several months ago and the result...the best apples I have ever eaten.
