The Snickerdoodle



Today's offering : the snickerdoodle cupcake. And because the name is so whimsical and the flavour so autumny, I decided to go cutesy/freehand/seasonal with the fondant design. Since starting this quest to become a professional baker, I kept seeing this recipe and never reading it. Old habit that started when I noticed that anything special sounding had ingredients I could only ever find in America. So after only ever glancing at the title, I decided it was time to take a closer look. Lo and behold, it's basically a cinnamon cupcake! Incredible and oh my god, so tasty! And as I said, perfect for the season. Made a regular vanilla buttercream, but I powdered it with cinnamon as well. Mmmm, this would go really well with a Starbucks hot chocolate! But I don't think they will appreciate me bringing a picknick along!! So if anyone has a chance to go snickerdoodle, don't hesitate! You'll love them!!

  4. Thank you! Those are my favorites too, I wanted to make a squirrel, but Lily was yelling and I didn't want to start something hyper complicated that would make me ignore her much longer!!
