Why culture cupcake?

Hello there!
I know you are wondering why I decided to name this blog culture cupcake? Well, they are two of my favorite things: culture and cupcakes. So today I will be talking about cupcakes!
If you are looking for the best cupcakes in NYC, I must recommend Babycakes located at 248 Broome Street, go to their website http://www.babycakesnyc.com/, they are the best vegan, wheat free, gluten free, guilty free pieces of heaven.

There is a bakery in London I hear that serve a variety of lactose free and gluten free cupcakes, it is called Bake-a-Boo and it is located in West Hampstead (nearest tube Kilburn). Visit http://www.bake-a-boo.com/ for more information and I will hope to visit it soon!

If you rather bake your cupcakes at home, I recommend buying the :Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World: 75 Dairy-Free Recipes for Cupcakes that Rule by Isa C. Moskowitz. The recipes are wonderful.

HAPPY BAKING!!!

"Howard In Love" by Isa Zapata "Party For One" by Ashley G.

So it was a typical September day in London (rainy and cold). I was indoors trying to keep warm and watching movies. I was searching online and these two artists caught my eye. They are both very distinct in styles, but I love their work: Isa Zapata and Ashley G.

Meet "Howard"! He is a very nice and cute frog drawn by artist Isa Zapata. I really like her style, it is bright and cheerful. She lives in Miami, Florida and she does murals, t-shirts, paintings and lithographs. If you want more information, you can visit http://www2.childrensillustrators.com/illustrator.cgi/isazapata

I was fascinated by Party For One by Ashley G. It has such a beautiful quality to it, her work is fascinating. You can find more information on her at http://www.kittygenius.com/

I hope you enjoy the paintings! They are brilliant.

Well, off to bed I go.. another sleepy London night... till morrow....
