I've pretty much ignored National Cupcake Day today because, in the US, it's not really National Cupcake Day.
But you know what? Every day should be some kind of cupcake day!
To that end, here are some smiley face cupcakes and Happy Smiley Face Cupcake Day to all of you!
White chocolate mud cake, with raspberry buttercream with a fondant smiley face from blogger Cupcake Corner via Flickr
from Flickr user foodcore - Apricot frosting tops this happy faced chocolate cupcake.
from Flickr user shuchinks - Chocolate cupcakes with vanilla buttercream
I snapped this one last year at the San Francisco Art Institute
M&M candy smiley face cupcake by Flickr user ciaostellabella
Raise your hand if you don't think the raspberry barrette is the cutest thing ever! OMG. (I realize I probably use "cutest" and "OMG" and phrases like that a lot, but when it comes to cupcakes, I really can't help it. I do have a wider vocabulary, I promise.)
And in the extra cool category, these come with a recipe over at Merry Antoinette (via Flickr)
And who said only people (or rather, cupcake people) can smile?
Ladybug cupcake - Chocolate cake, chocolate cream cheese frosting, topped with fondant by Glorious Treats on Flickr
Octopus cupcake by My Artisan Cake Company on Flickr
monkey cupcakes by Flickr user distopiandreamgirl
banana cake with mocha buttercream
orange droste pastille ears
marzipan muzzle
ganache smile
"lentil" candy eyes.
And lastly, a reminder to SMILE by Little House of Dreams on Flickr
