truth be told, the best part of baking is licking the mixing bowl
I would have to say baking. I love the smells and putting everything together to make something yummy.
I always look forward to coming up with creative ways to decorate :)
D for Decorating! D for Dumdeedumdi!
I find decorating the most fun because that's where you build in all of the hope and anticipation for the prospective cupcake eater. Whether it be an elegant swirl, an extravagant flower, or a cute puff of buttercream, the decorating makes a cupcake just that!
Baking baking baking! I love decorating but I also love the process of putting everything together.
Hard to choose, but I don't usually have a lot of opportunity for decorating per se so baking and coming up with new flavors is probably the most fun for me.
Baking, no decorating, no baking....ugh!!! I can't choose!
I like the baking part best because the mixing is therapeutic and the smells heavenly!
Licking the bowl of course is the best part!! and or the first bite!!
I love both, but decorating can be a bit more creative which I love. Mmm, I think it's time to go bake another cake.
Tough question!! I like both parts...but probably the baking.
I love to decorate! I love trying out new techniques and gadgets and the kids love it when I mess up and have to make another one!
I like the decorating part best! It's so much fun :D
That is definitely a tough one to answer...
The mommy in me LOVES the baking part, because my kids and I often have so much fun baking together. The woman in me (not really separate, but, you know what I mean) LOVES the decorating part - even just the planning of what I'm going to do part of the decorating part. Most of all, though, ALL of me LOVES the part where I get to give the cupcakes to people - they're always so giddy and wide eyed. As you know, cupcakes can do that to a person :O)
Neither! It's the eating! :) Just kidding. I would have to say decorating. I really like to play around and be creative. But sometimes you can get creative with the baking too! :)
Decorating baby!!
baking baking baking!
beacause its messy and delcious. (:
Baking! You can experiment with flavours that no one as seen before. Or you can take regular recipes and turn them into something completely out of this world! Sometimes somethings may not come out like you'd planned, but when it comes out perfect then your pride bubbles over.
i think eating is my favorite part but i like the baking part too. i smush my nose up against the glass, anxious to see how they're turning out :)
Baking is more relaxing for me, so I like it best. I tend to be too much of a piano builder and I'm never satisfied by how it looks decorated.
Decorating, definitely! You get to be creative, have fun! When I bake, I always bake to the recipe because I have no sense of smell and can't really gauge how something is developing otherwise. But I can really go crazy with decorating!

Definitely decorating...pouring the batter in the pans is quite fun for me too :)

I would have to say baking is my favorite part. Especially since if I mess up I don't know yet:) So I'm always happy as it goes into the oven:)
Baking...then tasting!
