Lavender Cupcakes , Mais Oui!


Lavender cupcakes

I have had a productive Thursday evening...

I have had it in my head for a little while that I would like to make lavender cupcakes.  I found some culinary lavender at Whole Foods, and finally tried it tonight using this recipe and a basic buttercream frosting.

I'm not sure what I think about the results.  They are very, well, lavender-y. We'll have to see what the verdict is at the office tomorrow.  I did double the recipe but perhaps I shouldn't have doubled the lavender.

I also received some more supplies in the mail when I got home from work tonight, so I made and listed two new necklaces on Etsy.  I'm on a French kick with the jewelry, as you may have noticed...



Now, to bed, so I can get up and run in the morning.  It's almost the weekend!

  2. Thanks Galit! The cupcakes tasted a little strong last night, but I had another for breakfast (lol) and it had mellowed out a bit. Try it! :)
