Today's Flickr spotlight is on Brown Sugar Baking, who I've been meaning to highlight for a while. She bakes for friends and family. These cupcakes are so fun and creative. All photos and captions by Brown Sugar Baking on Flickr.

Fauxstess mini cupcakes: my gourmet ripoff of a classic. dark chocolate cake filled with homemade vanilla buttercream topped with dark chocolate ganache i made (using Bissinger's chocolate) and a swirl made with the buttercream filling.
And the inside:


Gluten free dark chocolate cupcakes with pink vanilla buttercream and heart shaped sprinkles for a 40th anniversary.

Thin Mint cupcake: My tribute to the Girl Scouts... Chocolate cupcake, homemade pink mint frosting, and a Thin Mint cookie.

Kosher for Passover flourless chocolate cake cupcake with strawberries

Princess cupcakes - I found these tiny tiaras at a party store for 25 cents each. I topped vanilla cupcakes, vanilla buttercream and lavender sugar crystals with the tiaras.

As a tribute to my beloved St. Louis Cardinals making it to the division playoffs I give you... baseball cupcakes. The liners have lttle sports balls on them. The top is vanilla frosting. Get this... to make "stitching" I literally used a tweezers to place each red sprinkle.
Another one for the chocolate lovers...

it looks like an innocent chocolate cupcake with innocent chocolate frosting and half a Reese's cup on top. But soon we will slice it open and find a surprise inside.
And the surprise inside:

Another Reese's peanut butter cup baked inside!
And last but certainly not least...look at this!

this is a jumbo cupcake, about the size of 3 or 4 regular cupcakes, surrounded by kit kat bars and topped with one reese's peanut butter cup and a ton of m&m's.
