Just sayin.
Had my daughter's 2nd birthday party and we over-ordered the cupcakes (oh damn)

(5,170 posts)I have a beef against cupcakes!!
1) They are ill conceived as a finger food because there is no way to eat them without getting frosting on your fingers.
2) The more you try to eat them without getting frosting on your fingers, the less able you are to get both frosting and cake in every bite.
3) You can do the old rip off the bottom and put it on top bit, making a a homemade frosting sandwich type contraption. That might keep your fingers clean, but if that is the intended way to eat them, they should come that way!
I prefer cakes that can be eaten with a knife and fork. For finger foods, give me Almond Roca or an ice cream cone any day!
