Just sharing with you these gorgeous-looking and super yummy caramel cupcakes I ordered from Blue Toque for my mom last Sunday, in celebration of Mother’s Day. It was the design that really caught my attention – lovely blooms in orange peach and green – making these floral cupcakes look like a bouquet when arranged in a plate.
I’ve had my share of disappointing cupcakes which looked really delicious because of the pretty frosting or buttercream decoration on top, only to reveal a store-bought cupcake. This one from Blue Toque reminded me so much of my favorite caramel cake from Estrel’s. The cupcake is light and fluffy, and the caramel frosting (between the cupcake and the buttercream icing) is not too rich nor too sweet. Caramel goodness talaga. The buttercream icing itself is not too sweet, either.
I couldn’t help but take lots of pictures of the flower cupcakes before I gave them to my mom, hehe! Each one looked delicately made.
Here are more pictures of the pretty blooms, or rather, cupcakes from Blue Toque. Enjoy!

![[ Long story ahead] 👉 Yesterday evening we checked on GG2 and found that 2 kitties were missing. We don't know where she put them because her area is already fenced to avoid the kitties from wandering off.
Turned out we are now at that stage where the momma cat is transferring her kitties because: (a) the birthing box has gotten too small for them though we put them out of the box already and fenced the area, (b) the area is dirty and OC si GG2, or (c) the area is too exposed and too bright for them.
After looking around with flashlight, we found the 2 kitties under the other plant stand just outside our door, walking at different directions and if not for the flashlight ay baka natapakan ko na 😬 We hurriedly put them back in their original box muna with their other siblings, and placed kraft paper in this potential '2nd home' under the plant stand in case GG2 transfers them again.
True enough, she transferred them back there - at midnight. We woke up this morning at the sound of meowing GG2. She is telling us that her babies want breakfast na so it's time to feed her as well 😂
Now I know why nag lipat bahay sya. Gusto pala nya mas malapit sya sa amin 😜 Isang sigaw or meow meow lang nya, nakasilip na kme sa kanya 😂.
Haaayz, who knew that having a momma cat and newborn kitties would be this stressful - and entertaining 😜

1) A lot of effort went into taking these cupcakes from plain to works of art. The details and workmanship are amazing! Not to mention the great quality cupcakes underneath the flowers and petals.
2) Great photography! Since the subjects were so photogenic, it seems irresistible to arrange them and take lots of shots from great angles.
Great work, Blue Toque!
Great shots, Leah!

May 21, 2015 at 5:14 pmSo pretty! Parang ayaw kong kainin; gusto ko lang titigan. Pero sayang naman kung langgam lang ang kakain. 😮 Good thing you were able to capture and somehow “preserve” them in photos. 😉
