Weekend edition: pretty cupcakes

I stopped at the Sweets Bakeshop on my way home from St. Paul yesterday and picked up these adorable mini cupcakes. I also happened to check Twitter and noticed they were offering a free mango coconut cupcake to anyone that mentioned they saw the tweet. Yay, a free cupcake!

Sweets Bakeshop was gorgeous inside! They had a bunch of cute displays with macarons and cupcake towers and a beautiful crystal chandelier.

I was paying so much attention to getting the lighting right on these photos that I didn't even notice I had the worst angle of the tiramisu cupcake in the first photo. Oh well. Food styling can be my next learning project.

  6. I'm annoyed you can still eat cupcakes and continue to be on top of the leader board for the Biggest Loser. Not fair Jenna!!!! :)
