Not a cupcake

My daughter and I are going to Anaheim in a couple of weeks for her Competitive Cheerleading (nationals) I was going to ride with another family (we live in Oregon) but they are no longer going so now I have to come up with plane ticket $! Now I am selling sugar cookies to try and make up the difference. I packaged these ones up and sent them to my sister-in-law Tami hoping she can sell some for me. They're so good and ship really well !

The little cookies are ones I decorated for samples this is the naked version!

These are all the little ones, aren't they cute.

Cinnabon cupcakes

Yes I am a professional baker and yes I can truly pick on a bakery product to the end. I do not care for the supposed "cupcakes" at Cinnabon I'll give them credit for the cream cheese icing and yes I do like there cinnamon rolls on occasion but... the cake itself is very heavy and doughy tasting. I don't know if they were going for the cupcake to be like the roll, which it does taste very cinnamony, but the consistency is not to my liking. I did not eat it in one gulp like the rest of my family, who not knowing any better,claim it's good. I have to be the critic and try frosting alone, then cupcake alone, then both together. I'll be working on my own version of this. C- I say!

Chocolate Orange Jellybean Cupcakes

These are vanilla cupcakes that I added chopped up Cadbury Milk candy bar to. I tossed the chocolate with a tablespoon of flour to keep it from sinking to the bottom. I pulled out the cupcakes about 6 or so minutes into baking and add 3 orange jelly beans (otherwise they sink to the bottom).

Then I made a orange creamsicle icing with orange extract and french vanilla icing. I topped them with candy bar and a jelly bean . I think these are adult and child friendly or bring out the child in the adult.
