Orange pistachio zest cupcakes by LA's BlakeyCakes

I'm loving the look of these orange pistachio zest cupcakes by Los Angeles custom cupcake company BlakeyCakes, via their Facebook page. To order, email b.arias101 at hotmail.com or call 818-577-8302. You can get more information on his blog and follow @BlakeyCakes_ on Twitter.



Their official description:

Here we have a sort of tropical/earthy fusion of ingredients. The cake is a super moist burst of orange flavor made from fresh squeezed oranges and zest with a tinge of maple syrup added. Next, the cake is filled with a homemade blend of mega tangy lemon and lime curds. After that, I decided to make ...the frosting a swiss meringue buttercream that gives a less sugary and more airy, buttery taste. I blended bits of orange marmalade and crushed pistachios in the frosting, which adds a somewhat bittersweet and nutty experience. And finally, a glistening chunk of roasted apricot is planted at the very top! Bon appétit!

And I realize I might have posted these strawberry flambé ones by Blakeycakes before, but if so, please forgive me, cause they look amazing! Official description:

Contained within this complex wonder is a strawberry fruit filling flambéed with Gran Marnier smacked with a dollop of custard! This wonder filling is sandwiched between two moist vanilla cakes topped with a deluge of chocolate ganache and a decadent chocolate dipped strawberry.
