cupcake BLITZKREIG...

"Blitzkreig" was the only appropriate word to describe the mad rush of cupcake photos that I am about to post. This is due to a combination of me being too busy to upload photos to my computer and having a bazillion cupcake orders in the past few weeks. AND I have another for Saturday AND I have another for next week. Business is goooood.

(Also, let it be known that my blitzkreigs are much more fun and adorable than Hitler's.
...MUCH more.)

Cupcake 1: Gluten-Free Mint Chocolate AKA "Luftwaffe"
These were for a friend of my co-worker Lauren - they were also the first "stop" on his birthday scavenger hunt... I was honored to hand over cupcakes to this confused young man early on a Sunday morning.


















Cupcake 2: "The Elvis" AKA "Kesselschlacht"

These are banana cupcakes with peanut butter frosting (because Elvis loved peanut butter and banana sandwiches, and also that's what my cookbook calls them.)


















Cupcakes 3 and 4: Fluffernutter! and Chocolate Banana AKA "Schwerpunkt!"
These were for a middle school graduation ceremony held by the Higher Acheivement Program - where my friends Avi and Katherine work. Chocolate, peanut butter, and banana all seem to be favorite flavors this season...


















Cupcake 5: Peanut Butter Chocolate AKA "Machismo"
A co-worker of my roommate wanted to do a little appreciation gift for the maintenance men at her office. Chocolate/peanut butter cupcakes with a big manly roasted peanut on top where about the most masculine cupcake idea I could come up with... it's hard to bake masculine cupcakes.

















THE END.

Oh, sweet Jesus.
The Kesselschlacht looks amazing.

Bonus points for working both "German War Strategy" and "Peanut Butter" tags into the same post.

Dude, chocolate/peanut butter/banana is my favorite flavor of milkshake, and thus I'm sure a great flavor of cupcake. I should like to see for myself.

I concur with Jess.
