It truly must just taste fabulous.<br /><br />Of course, not everyone having a serving of this fabulous cake will be able to have it served on your fabulous china.<br /><br />Something about baking must be in this mid-April air. I actually baked my first cupcakes of this century. It's so funny to write that. The key was finding my old muffin tins and buying some of those little pleated paper cups. (No massive oven spillage resulted.)<br /><br />xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3305117665027937006.post-37574140820669331702012-04-21T11:26:56.252-06:002012-04-21T11:26:56.252-06:00Lucky winner! :-)
