A cupcake for movie buffs, and we wish we were at the beach cupcakes

These movie and beach cupcakes are by Toronto, Ontario cupcake bakery Short & Sweet Cupcakes, via their Facebook page. I love when people get creative with a theme and truly create cupcake art, and they totally have (hi gold dragees!). It's been cold and rainy in New York so the beach cupcakes made me wish I were on a warm beach. You can also follow them @shortandsweetTO on Twitter.

Gorgeous gold glittery flower cupcakes by Cupcations

I love these colorful flower cupcakes by Cupcations in Fort McMurray, Canada, for Suncor, incorporating their company's colors; read more no their blog. I'm starting with my favorite. The gold and blue look so gorgeous together, and the gold dragees add a perfect touch. All via Cupcations on Flickr.

12 Tin Cupcakery in Niagara Falls is now officially open!

12 Tin Cupcakery just opened in Niagara Falls, Ontario (Canada) - my apologies, I'd meant to post about this last week because they had a grand opening Saturday with free cupcakes, but time got away from me. You can follow them @12tincupcakery on Twitter as well as on Facebook. They have a cupcake schedule (see Facebook) as well as a "wild card" flavor, which changes.
