Cupcake Heaven

On this page you will find lots of information about the cupcakes that I bake, the recipes and the how-to information.

Every week I host Cupcake Tuesday, you can add your creation to the linky for everyone to see or just grab some great ideas.

During the month of August, I’m hosting the Cupcake Challenge, each week is a different challenge with the theme Summertime Fun! TONS of greats ideas here too!

I’ve recently changed this page a little. I had almost 50 different cupcakes and the page was getting really long, so I decided to combine the pictures. I hope you will find the categories a little easier. If you don’t see a cupcake here, please contact me, and I’ll be happy to either bake it or let you know where to find it.
