This week's
cupcake of the week comes from Steph at the
Frosted Garden. These adorable
Easter Nests are delightfully festive and oh so cute. I hope she inspires you to make your own batch for Sunday!

The other day I ended up at the San Francisco outpost of Tom Colicchio's
'Wichcraft. While there were plenty of delicious-looking sandwiches on the menu, my eyes gravitated to their cupcakes. They're similar to the old-school Hostess cupcakes: rich chocolate with a white creamy filling, chocolate ganache, and a bit of white frosting drizzled on top.

This week's
cupcake comes from our pal
muffin. Her
Caramel Apple Pie Cupcakes come complete with a round of pastry and a oozing of caramel. These look absolutely sinful and wonderfully delicious.

If you've ever dreamed of eating cupcakes the size of your face, then you are in luck. The folks at
The Knife tipped us off to the jumbo cupcakes at Beverly Hills-based
La Provence Patisserie & Cafe. The huge cupcakes — that's a regular-sized plastic fork in the photo — come in red velvet, chocolate chocolate cream cheese, and chocolate cream cheese.
