Today is our day for sweet Super Bowl treats and there's nothing like a cupcake for it's finger-friendly, eyes-elsewhere eating. I first came across The Artful Cupcake by Marcianne Miller more than two years ago, when some friends and I were preparing to make 200 cupcakes for a friend's wedding. We turned to this book for decorating tips and tricks, and managed to pull together some really gorgeous desserts for her big day. While the Super Bowl isn't a wedding, and you don't need to get quite as fancy for desserts that are going to be eaten in front of the television, it might be fun to trick out your classic cupcake with some nice topping or unusual frosting. If that's your game, then this book is a fun resource to have on hand to that end. The images are beautiful and there are 36 inspiring projects from which to choose.
