Last week I had the chance to attend the Cupcake Conference Summer social at the Grand America. The Grand America had us set up in the Presidential suite.

Our room over looked the courtyard
We met Grand America's Pastry chef Fernanda Dutra in the pastry kitchen.
She spoke to us about the kitchen and her passion for baking.

Then we got a chance to decorate our own cupcakes for a little competition.
Kelli wasn't happy with her first attempt so she just licked the frosting off and started over.
Here are 2 of the 3 judges with their picks
Back in our room we had cupcakes waiting for us.
They even had gluten free cupcakes for those with Celiac disease.
They also had a fun raffle.
By the end of the night we had eaten our fill of cupcakes.
Thanks for the fun night!

ReplyDeleteI think the fact that makes cupcakes so delicious is not due to its sweetness but the toppings and decorations make it irresistible. I liked all the captures of the cupcake.
