I’m taking a chance!
One of my favourite places in the world is For The Love Of Cake. Its a cupcake/cake bakery in Liberty Village in Toronto. (Un)Fortunately, it is extremely close to my work! So when I am at work and get a hankerin’ for one of the best cupcakes on the planet, I can zip over and get one! Great right! Except I eat too many :)
Anyway, that lovely shop is hosting the Iron Cupcake! It is much like Iron Chef only, big surprise, its for cupcakes!! I have begun talking with the owners of FTLOC and they are amazingly kind and helpful people. So since I have become basically a regular, and constantly ask question after question, they asked if I would be participating in the contest! I thought about it for a while, and decided, “Why not?”
Then I thought again, “No way”
Then I went back again, and was asked when I was going to register. I explained that I didn’t think I was ready, to which the reply was “Who cares? It’ll be fun!” How could i argue with that? So I signed up.
Now I am trying to come up with a cupcake to make! I don’t know what one to make! I have gone from one idea to the next, poo pooing each one along the way. I am sure I will figure it out. I just hope I do it in time! Too bad I couldn’t just fire out some of my peanut butter cupcakes… remember them??

They were damn good, but they do not have beer (the ingredient needed to be used) or green (the theme). Oh well! They made me happy at the time.
I will keep you posted on my progress. If you want to know more about the Iron Cupcake, check out www.fortheloveofcake.ca. Its worth it, TRUST me.
