Happy Tuesday Cupcakers!
I'm pretty new to this blogger thing, so bear with me as I develop my blogging skills.
Over the past several weeks, I've spent quite a bit of time researching, reviewing, and practising new flavour combinations for my cupcakes and brownies. Of course I'm a Pinterest junkie like many others, and I will admit I get quite a few baking ideas from there.
Now, I'm not a standard recipe kinda girl, so I mix things up a bit and put my stamp on any existing recipe that's not my original creation. As I've mentioned on numerous occasions, I cook by taste and not by exact measurements, which gives every customer a unique experience of their cupcakes. Yes, they're all Yummy!!!
As a Market Stall holder I've learned every market attracts a different group of customers, and what sells really well at one market may not sell as well at another. Living in Scotland the cupcake craze is starting to really take off, and being an American I have some really far out cupcake flavours some of which were not very popular here. But that all changed when I introduced them to my customers and now some of those flavours are taking off; French Toast, American Breakfast, Sweet & Salty, and Caramel Apple Pie to name a few.
I'm always looking for new ways to shake things up, so last week I decided to take my favourite Oreo cookies and put them in Brownies. Why hadn't I thought of this before? Not sure, but they were absolutely delicious and sold like wild fire at the market.

I also made a White Chocolate Lemon and Coconut Blondie, and oh yummy. I'm not even a coconut lover but I couldn't get enough.
This week I've decided since Maltesers is a really big seller for me, and S'mores is another one of my favourites, that I'm going to incorporate them in a brownie recipe and see how that sells at the market. Hopefully, they will go over like the Oreo cookie did or better.
