Okay, my new interest is CUPCAKES!  I really can't get enough of watching The Food Network Cupcake Challenge.. and now I am trying all those decadent cupcake recipes.  Which brings me to today's entry for creating a "friend-raising" event---Cupcakes & Cocktails.

My first event for a non-profit, I decided to host a friend-raising event in a really cute little place with lots of glass and lots of class!  So hosting some champagne cocktails with some cupcakes was my foray into non-profit event planning.  Now that I am all into the cupcake thing, I am fantasizing about cocktails IN the cupcake.  I found some really cool recipes that I am dying to try out on a group.  Right now, my group is my family. 

I am currently planning  my own version of Cupcake Challenge as another  friend-raiser for a non-profit.  I am matching celebrity baking assistants with real bakers and using celebrity judges.  Of course, taste is a big factor.  Best use of theme and display are the other criteria for judging the bakers.  The theme would be the next event~ Starry Starry Night.  The baker that best represents the overall theme of Starry Starry, will be the baker that will cater at that party and provide their creative display and yummy cupcakes.  Heaven.

Enjoy!
