Gluten Free Vanilla...Oh yeah!


We got our first Gluten Free order.  We made a vanilla cupcake, with vanilla frosting.  Yes the frosting is vanilla we just wanted to color it a pretty turquoise......so we did.


Laura~ our gluten free taste tester at work, said they were really good.  I must admit I tried one myself and thought they were really good, and I didn't notice a difference between gluten free and Regular.  They tasted much better than they look.  For some reason the frosting in the pictures looks more like the slime thing from Ghost Busters!

Ooh la la.......orange vanilla bean!!

 These cupcakes were for a baby shower!  The white and blue sprinkles were the perfect way to top this scrumptious cupcake!

 The cupcake is a vanilla bean cupcake that was the perfect texture of moistness.  It wasn't too moist where it was coating your throat as you swallow, but not so dry that it just crumbles. 



What really made this the ultimate compliment to cute baby outfits and itty bitty diapers, was the buttercream frosting.  Oh...my...goodness!!  It was the perfect blend of vanilla and orange.

  
When you bite into this cupcake you can taste that it is a vanilla cupcake with vanilla frosting, and then the orange hits your palate and man, it is Divine!!  We love the fact that the orange isn't so powerful that you think it is an orange cupcake, but it is subtle enough that it gives it that something extra.
