Cinnamon Toast Cupcake

Hello foodies! I have such fond memories (i’m sure you do too) of  eating a huge bowl of cinnamon toast crunch cereal and enjoying the sweet milk that follows. I love the flavors { sugary, cinnamony, crunchy, sweet, and slightly salty. }  Combining this delicious cereal with a fluffy cupcake is the perfect combination.  I assure you, you will be very satisfied once you bite into one of these lovlies.

 

Hope you enjoyed the video!

Best Cinnamon Rolls Ever

One day I was searching for the best cinnamon roll recipe. I could have easily bought the pillsbury stuff but that’s too easy. Homemade dough is always better. I searched through pinterest and found this great recipe that had a secret ingredient. This ingredient was the key  to the moist, fluffy, delicious texture and flavor. They were a hit at the brunch I went to. So if you want to wow your friends, I suggest you make these.

Fleur de Sel Caramels

//Perfect for Holiday Gifts //

Chewy caramel is a nostalgic flavor for me ever since I tasted a milk dud.  I have many memories of my dad and myself devouring an entire box while watching movies. You can’t help but remember all of the clusters of sugar that get stuck in your teeth. It’s so worth it because they are just that delicious. This is by far the best caramel recipe I have tried. It’s definitely the perfect balance between salty and sweet. I have won many tastebuds over and you can too. Here’s a peak on how I made them.
