Okay, I've made plenty of cupcakes in my day. I've had this blog for about two years now. These cupcakes just might be best that I have ever made. The response by my co-workers was amazing. Well, except for the co-worker who is allergic to pumpkin.....good thing I told him what kind of cupcakes they were right when he was about to eat one!
I didn't have cake flour on hand, and I never have. Does that make me a bad baker? Anywho, I found the conversion on line and added corn starch to all purpose flour to make it the equivalent of cake flour. I thought these were fairly easy to make, and smelled fabulous while they were baking. I topped them off with the cream cheese recipe from the book, which is a great recipe, too.
I packed up the cupcakes in my favorite new accessory, my cupcake courier. I also packed a few extras in another box to take to my hair stylist (I had an appointment that day) and her staff. They loved them so much that I got an order to make them for the salon in November!
I will DEFINITELY be making these cupcakes again. For the order next month, of course. I'm also thinking about making them for Thanksgiving this year. Maybe I'll even make them into those adorable Turkey cupcakes on the following page of this recipe!

i loved these cupcakes. it was a great recipe! that giant cupcake carrier is SO awesome! i need something like that. mine only holds 24. how many does yours hold? and where did you get it??
wow. that carrier. I love it. Where did you get it? I want something like that. It looks really useful!
Hi Judy and Nina! This carrier is awesome, and I highly recommend it. It carries 36 cupcakes, and feels giant when you carry it. It also gets kind of heavy when it's full! I found it at Bed Bath and Beyond, here is the link:
