Creative Cupcake Sensations
While cupcakes have been around since the late 18th century, until recently they were usually considered children's fare...but no longer! Today's cupcakes can be elegant or whimsical and are frequently served at weddings and other adult celebrations. Named for the amount of ingredients used to make them: a cup of flour, a cup of butter, and a cup of sugar, cupcakes are great because they are an indulgent treat but not a diet breaker.
