Description:
The perfect cupcake for every occasion.
Swirled and sprinkled, dipped and glazed, or otherwise fancifully decorated, cupcakes are the treats that make everyone smile. They are the star attraction for special days, such as birthdays, showers, and holidays, as well as perfect everyday goodies. In Martha Stewart's Cupcakes, the editors of Martha Stewart Living share 175 ideas for simple to spectacular creations-with cakes, frostings, fillings, toppings, and embellishments that can be mixed and matched to produce just the right cupcake for any occasion. Alongside traditional favorites like yellow buttermilk cupcakes swirled with fluffy vanilla frosting and devil's food cupcakes crowned with rich, dark chocolate buttercream, there are also sweet surprises such as peanut butter and jelly cupcakes, dainty delights like tiny almond-cherry tea cakes, and festive showstoppers topped with marizpan ladybugs or candy clowns.
The book features cupcakes for everyone, every season, and every event: Celebrations (monogram heart cupcakes perfect for an elegant wedding); Birthdays (starfish-on-the-beach cupcakes sure to be a hit at children's parties); Holidays (gumdrop candy ghouls and goblins ideal for Halloween revelers); and Any Day (red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting for a picnic, or caramel-filled mini chocolate cakes for grown-up gatherings).
In singular Martha Stewart style, the pages are both stunning in design-with a photograph of each finished treat - and brimming with helpful how-to information, from step-by-step photographs for decorating techniques to ideas for packaging and presentingyour cupcakes. Whether for any day or special days, the treats in Martha Stewart's Cupcakes will delight one and all.

Customer Reviews
Beautiful pictures that inspire creativity. Have not made the recipes, but still love the book. I bought the paperback because it was not as expensive. If I had to do over, I'd buy the hardback so it could become handed down from generation to generation.
Great recipes all from scratch easy to read instructions however the measurements are more than needed for 24 cup cakes and you always end up with to much batter. Enough left over to bake a small cake. Very delicious recipes and a few challenging but all very interesting.
Amazing ideas in this book that will really inspire you to get creative and do other things. Great easy to follow recipes.
Each recipe has a beautiful picture and all recipes that i have tried so far have been delicious! If you don't already have Martha's cookie book, get that one too!
The cookbook is very nice. It provides lots and lots of great recipes and great ideas for cupcakes. It is easy to read and to follow and has lots of lovely photos. The directions are clear and concise. The recipes range from the easy, everyday cupcake to the more elegant company type cupcake.
