Back to this though, these cupcakes were very good, but not particularly lemonly without the sauce on top. The lemon sauce which was equal parts lemon juice and sugar was a concentrated lemon taste that was really good. I had brought a couple along with me to a dinner with friends that I rarely see, but then two of the girls had decided to cancel. Instead, I brought it with me to the dinner still that I had planned but it was just a dinner between one high school friend and I. Also, I brought these with me on my flight back up north. School's finally starting and I'll be busy busy busy again. Hopefully I will be able to bake as much as I do now, but that is probably unlikely.
Look out for the next couple of weeks - I plan on making 21 different chocolate things in honor of my boyfriend's birthday who is turning 21 and for the Kiwanis Takeover [themed Mardi Gras]. I will try to start posting these Monday, in hopes that since he doesn't read my blog consistently, he won't read it now before he gets the package!
making them cupcakes - what a cute idea! i agree, the glaze on top was supppperrrr concentrated (i used that exact word in my own post! :) Without that, it would have been a mild mild flavor.
