To continue with my cupcake boosterism, here's a link to Martha Stewart's new gallery of fall cupcakes. I'm not sure they're the "reclaimed" "elevated" cupcakes so prevalent in upscale bakeries these days, but they sure are cute. And Martha is almost always reliable for making even her gimmicky recipes tasty.Check out the apple cupcakes: Vanilla cupcakes with red icing resembling newly-picked apples, with pretzel stems and sour apple candy leaves intact. Or the pumpkin patch cupcakes, with tiny hand-made marzipan pumpkins atop spice cake batter. The carrot cupcakes are a bit more complex, flavored with allspice and orange juice and topped with cream cheese icing loaded with shredded coconut.

I have made the carrot cupcakes before (they are in her everyday food cookbook) and they are really easy and great!
