World's smallest cupcake.

Now we have explored the worlds biggest cupcakes, now why not explore the smallest cupcake.  So everything you have for the biggest cupcake, its the opposite for the smallest cupcake. Each small cupcake is a big as a quarter, and contains; less than one egg, less than a tablespoon of sugar and flour.  Even though i have never tried out a small cupcake, but I'm pretty sure it taste just as wonderful. And just like regular cupcakes, people go beyond for decorating.
I really like this blog because they show all the things needed to make small cupcakes. http://www.notmartha.org/tomake/ittycupcakes/

Toppings

   You can go crazy with cupcake topping. So lets start off with the different kinds of frostings. You can start with something as simple as vanilla to something more outrageous like apple cinnamon, or even lemon. The flavors are endless. You can start off with basic ingredients and make something that could actually turn out to be good.

     Moving on to topping, just like frostings you can have endless things. From sprinkles, to fruit pieces to even chocolate. And what to put on your cupcake, is really your decision.
My favorite toppings would have to be fruits. It makes me feel like I'm eating a little healthier, and they taste great. The juices of the fruit gets soaked by the the cupcake leaving you with a moist cupcake. The topping i use the most is strawberry. I use strawberries both in and on top of my cupcake when i make them.

Biggest Cupcake?

How would your like to take a bite out of a cupcakes that has 2,000,000 calories, and weighs 1,224 pounds? Sounds like one heck of a cupcake huh? It must be with all the ingredients they use. With over thousands pounds of ingredients use, one might ask themselves why bother with all of this. Well there're are many answers to this question starting off with, being in the Guinness Book of world records. Next one i found out that was very interesting was people actually order them for their parties and those are pretty big also.  As for me i'll stick to my little individual cupcake so i won't have to share.
