Do you think your The Next Cupcake Hero?

Well, let’s see your skills! Each month a theme ingredient will be named. The theme ingredient must be used in either the cupcake, the frosting, the filling or all of the above if you choose. Simple enough? I think so.

With Cupcake Hero growing by leaps and bounds, we decided to use the Peanut Butter Dulce de Leche, from Blake Makes, as a Special Edition of CH. This allows us to still choose a theme for April, allowing all of you who did not win a sugary sweet jar of PBDDL to still bake your butts off this month. Does that make everyone happy? I hope so. WHINERS!

I let my fab partner in crime, TW choose the theme ingredient for April. We went back and forth, as we normally do. Then, I gave in. She says I didn’t put up enough of a fight. I think she just caught me during a moment of weakness. Regardless, this was her idea. While I think its a fabulous one, in case anyone hates it (If you do hate it, something is wrong with you), I am making sure you know its TW’s idea.

The theme for April is:

The theme ingredient for April is Earth Day!

That’s right, for April, Cupcake Hero is celebrating Earth Day! We are asking that you make cupcakes with Earth Day in mind. Make them green, make them organic, make them healthy, most of all, make them creative!!! Ingredients are up to you this month, as long as your cupcakes celebrate Earth Day.
