A blog full of sweets and treats that are delicious, fun and simple to create.
You know those red velvet cupcakes I shared yesterday, well here is another fun way to make them, or ANY kind of cupcake. Just bake that baby right inside a waffle bowl… How fun is that? I put the batter directly into the bowls, just like they were cupcake liners. It always amuses me that red velvet cake batter looks exactly like ketchup. I’m easily amused, if that wasn’t obvious. I topped mine with frosting and chocolate coating, but you {Read More}
Can I offer you a cute cupcake to kick off your week? I have only wanted to dip frosted cupcakes in chocolate for like, ever. I finally did. Yay! And it wasn’t nearly as hard as I kept thinking it would be. I did not use a homemade recipe for these, though if you would like one, I’d highly highly suggest my pink velvet recipe, which you can make any color you’d like! Instead I used a box of Duncan {Read More}
I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and Happy New Year. I think I skipped a weekly wrap up, so it’s time to get back into the groove and recap what’s been going on around here. One of the biggest things going on around here is that I announced that I will now be sharing more of my “Away From The Oven” type of stuff here on Love From The Oven. The main focus will still be baking, sweets, treats {Read More}
I originally planned to take a look back and share my favorites from April through June, but geeze, April was a busy baking month with so many favorites that I decided they needed their own post. So let’s dig in to the yummy treats from April 2012… Oreo Truffle Stuffed Cupcakes With Cookies & Cream Frosting My much loved Oreo Truffles baked into a cupcake. Totally over the top. Totally delicious. Hot Cocoa Brownie Bowls With Two Minute Chocolate Mousse. {Read More}
I thought I would look back and share some of my very favorite recipes from 2012. Here are the ones I loved the most from January, February and March. Starting off is a lighter one, my More Fudge Less Pudge brownie recipe (like the box, but homemade!). I shared a video tutorial about how to make one of my all time favorite, easy to make, no bake, everyone loves to eat desserts, chocolate covered pretzels. Seriously, these are so {Read More}

I have a sweet giveaway for you today that combines two of my favorite things. Cupcakes & Jewelry! Recently I came across a super cute necklace and bracelet on Zulily that I ordered for both my daughter and her BFF. It was from a company called Sugar & Vine, and I wasn’t sure what exactly to expect and hoped for the best. I was beyond thrilled when they showed up and were super cute. I LOVED them (as did the {Read More}
Someone just had a baby! And that someone would be the amazingly talented & endlessly creative Meaghan Mountford, author of “Sugarlicious” and the blogger behind The Decorated Cookie and Edible Crafts at Craft Gossip. It’s mind boggling how much Meaghan does, and how she does it all so very well. I am so excited to be sharing a treat today in the virtual baby shower for Meaghan and the arrival of her second daughter, Violet Lake, who was born earlier {Read More}
Today’s recipe isn’t really a recipe. But a cake. From a box. Keeping it simple. And because I lack even the most basic of actual cake decorating ability, it’s just decorated with M&M’s. But hey, M&M’s are pretty fun, right? I originally was picturing this cake being very chevron. I think that might have worked better with M&M Minis, but I think this still has some of the chevron style I just can’t get enough of. Box cake + frosting {Read More}
Day 3 in 12 Days of The Best Holiday Recipes is all about cupcakes! I never cease to be amazed at how talented and creative cake and cupcake decorators are.

My contribution to this collection is my Christmas Cupcake Cones. I love, {Read More}
I really am such a lucky girl that I get to create yummy treats for one of my favorite companies, PEEPS. When I say I’m a long time fan, I mean like life long. The photo to the left would be me, mid-70′s, with PEEPS. I would shave some years off my age and say that was the mid-80′s, but let’s be honest, that couch doesn’t lie. I have so much fun coming up with different ways to enjoy PEEPS {Read More}
What is more fun than Legos? How about chocolate Legos. On cupcakes. For the past two years my daughter has been a member of her school’s FIRST LEGO League Robotics team. It has been a great experience for her that has involved teamwork, math, technology, science and finding solutions to real world challenges. I wanted to share a bit about it, just based on our positive experiences (I’m not associated with it any way other than as a parent). I {Read More}
