Admit it: the reason that you like cupcakes is that they give you an excuse to eat like a kid again. A single-serving cake in a cute wrapper will unfailingly bring a smile to the face of any hungry onlooker, but it is not the cake itself that inspires lust for the little treat. It's the frosting.
This rich chocolate frosted cupcake was spotted on Cupcakes Take The Cake, a blog that is one of the finest resources for cupcake photos on the internet. Somewhere under this decadently fudgy topping is cake, but with frosting that looks this good, the only reason for the cake to be there is to support its weight. After all, the kid in you probably want to lick the frosting off and toss the rest of the cupcake - and when frosting looks this good, we can't blame you.
