I hope you all had a lovely Thanksgiving yesterday. My holiday isn’t quite over yet, as I’m celebrating part two tomorrow. And as if broccoli gratin & lasagna (in addition to turkeys, stuffing, potatoes, etc) weren’t enough for my 2 Thanksgivings this year, I decided to make cheddar dill scones as well.

Happy Thanksgiving… here are some Cream Soda Toffee cupcakes with brown butter frosting, just like the pilgrims made.

Entenmann’s chocolate chip crumb loaf used to be one of my absolute favorite cakes as a kid. I remember being really sick once, and I had no appetite. The only thing I wanted was sweet stuff, so my mom bought me chocolate chip ice cream and chocolate chip crumb loaf and I ate them watching […]

This is a new venture for me here on Cupcake Rehab. I’m usually not much of a “reviewer. ” Not when it comes to this kinda stuff anyway. I’ve been to tons of restaurants and bakeries but I always feel as though it isn’t up to me to review them. As if anyone cares what […]
