two for the road

as i was frantically packing. moving. leaving the life i know for the life i knew.

i decided to bake.

two very different cupcakes to mark the end of an era.

the first is a dairy, soy, gluten, animal free chocolate cake, filled with a rich ganache and topped with an even richer butter cream.
the second. well, it is chocolate cake, filled with salted caramel ganache. topped with a thick buttercream. and bacon. hells yes.
