Big thanks to Kelly of Butter & Me for having me at Cupcake Love-In!
I'm on my way back to snowy New York tonight, so I will be posting more about today's Cupcake Love-In, which featured 30+ bakers and 750 guests, as the week progresses, but I've had a lovely time visiting Scottsdale and hope to return. Many thanks to Kelly of Butter & Me for having me come out as a judge, and the location of the event and hotel where I stayed, Hotel Valley Ho, which was beautiful. This was a benefit for Central Arizona Shelter Services.

Cupcake blog dedication: I ate a real grasshopper on and inside a cupcake!
Barb's Bakery of Phoenix, Arizona, was not to be outdone in the "I can't believe I'm eating this" unofficial cupcake category today at Scottsdale, Arizona's Cupcake Love-In, serving up a chipotle grasshopper cupcake. Not "grasshopper," like the chocolate mint flavor, but grasshopper, like the bug. I was challenged as a judge to eat it, along with the four other judges, and we all did so at the same time. I closed my eyes, expecting it to be crunchy and chocolatey. It was indeed crunchy, but salty, and didn't all go down in one bite. I didn't know what flavor cupcake I was eating, so I took a fingerful of frosting, and it turned out to be spicy, so I bit into the cupcake, and it was crunchy! More grasshopper! It was intense. I heard their other cupcakes were alcohol-inspired, including cosmo, but I didn't get a chance to try those. Kudos to Barb's Bakery for going there and forcing us to try something new. I don't think I'd eat grasshopper again, but I'm glad I tried it, and the chipotle had an unexpected kick to it.
that's a grasshopper on top!
yes, those little flecks in the cake are grasshopper.
