I love to make cupcakes, they're fun to decorate and they're so darn cute!I'm not a big fan of eating them though.
I love to eat cheesecake. It's so rich and wonderful, especially with a fresh strawberry topping.
I like to bake (and decorate) cakes and cupcakes for kids. They appreciate them much more. I like to eat something more if I don't have to make it. I seem to lose all interest once I've spent the day baking. My favorite is my Mom's strawberry cream cake.
I like to bake what I like to eat - cookied especially chocolate chip and homemade pie! Yum!! a.haun@sbcglobal.net

I'll bake a cake better than cupcakes, even tough you can use the same ingredients for both but to pour and measure each cupcake is when I just came with a cake!!
