Cupcake Monday!

Ice cream cone cupcakes from Couture Cupcakes

There's Pancake Tuesday so why not Cupcake Monday! Mondays tend to wang (well, not for me because working from home means every day is kind of the same) but it's a dreaded arrival for office folk, a tribe I was once a part of. There is nothing more evil than the shrill ring of an alarm clock on a cold, dark, Monday morning. So hopefully this will add a little sweetness to your day.

I'm just coming under the wire as we near midnight, London time, but I just thought of it now! So every Monday look for The Swelle Life's weekly pick for cutest, most mouth-watering or most unique cupcake. Why didn't I think of this sooner? I ADORE them and judging by the explosion in cupcake shops and websites so does everyone else.

The debut featured palm-sized treats are from Couture Cupcakes at the Blushing Bakeshop, some of which are adorned with beautiful and delicate gelatin butterflies.

Have you made your own fabulous cupcake? Take a photo and send it to denise[at]swellebydenise.com and I'll feature it on Cupcake Monday! Or share with us a favourite cupcake shop in your neighbourhood or online. Or a special recipe! I apologise in advance for cravings this post most certainly will have spawned. My mouth actually just watered. Uh-oh.

These cupcakes are so beautiful! I want to eat one right now. These could definitely take the place of a wedding cake; they look that good.
