Do you smile and get giddy like a 2-year old when you see a cupcake that is disguised as an ice cream cone? If you don't, you may want to check for a pulse, because I probably could have named this post 'happiness in a cone'. I first made ice cream cone cupcakes...

Zucchini Muffins
Do you ever stand in line at a coffee shop and get tempted by the bountiful displays of baked goods only to end up leaving with some crazy awesome donut/danish/cookie/muffin you didn't plan on getting? I guess one of the blessings/curses of being gluten-free is that...
Triple Chocolate Torte
Valentine's Day is around the corner and whipping up this luscious triple chocolate torte is a sure-fire way to show your sweetie that you care. It's undoubtedly a show stopper, covered in a glossy dark chocolate ganache and enrobed in white chocolate slices. Not...
All Natural Red Velvet Pancakes (Gluten-Free)

Blue Corn Pancakes with Mixed Berry Syrup
Fact: I am a seriously low-functioning individual when I wake up. To put it mildly, I am not a morning person (more like a morning monster). Everyone who has ever lived with me (parents, sister, hubby, and roomies) knows that not only am I a hot mess leaving trails...
Strawberry Tea Cake
I love lots of things, but my shortlist includes my hubby, family/friends/dog Pucci, shoes, animal prints, and cake. Seriously, there are few cakes I have encountered in my life that I have not devoured and loved. Frozen Sarah Lee cakes as a kid, mom's homemade...
