A flavorful world of cupcakes

A cupcake is not just a small cake in a paper cup covered with some frosting. Nowadays it has turned into a trend or a matter of fashion. This mini feast gives a delicate appearance by applying miniature toppings such as small pieces of fruits, little hearts, edible glitters, and different shapes made by a variety of icings. 

You can imagine the classic look of a vanilla cupcake topped with pink, red or green icing with surprisingly beautiful multicolored sprinkles. Or what about the black icing on a chocolate cupcake that is dazzled with white Rosset and big edible pearls held by a lady wearing black gown and a pearl necklace. Actually, even a small cupcake can tell a beautiful story of its origin as well as it can also represents the mood and creativity of the decorating artist.

The everlasting trend of cupcake decoration is the use of rich butter-cream icing. Since, the popular chocolate, vanilla and pineapple flavors are the ruler of the taste, but the newly emerged flavors such as mango, paste and coconut are now also attracting the taste lovers. People now also like to take experiments with flavors like mocha, ginger, maple sugar, pumpkin and rum. 

 Today cupcake artists are very enthusiastic with use of marzipan or fondant decoration. This gives a magical effect when combined with edible glitters. But there is no match with the old school red velvet cake and cheese cream icing over it. So, when next time you crave for a cupcake don’t forget to ask for your favorite flavor.
