A little Italy in Virginia: Cannoli, almond biscotti, gluten free tiramisu, vegan lemoncello and Nutella cupcakes

These Italian dessert inspired cupcakes are by Richmond, Virginia bakery Carytown Cupcakes, via their Facebook page. What drew me to the cannoli cupcakes was that they looked like they were wearing crowns! Maybe they are, in a way. I love when one dessert inspires another, and these all look amazing. Carytown Cupcakes can be reached at info@carytown-cupcakes.com or 804-355-CAKE (2253) and you can find out more at carytown-cupcakes.com.

Bloggers The Baking Beauties are here to let those of you who are gluten free know not only that Snickers bars are safe but that you can make amazing cupcakes out of them. Visit them for the recipe for these gluten free Snickers cupcakes. From the post: "when I found out that Snickers bars are gluten-free, they were an obvious choice. Peanuts. Caramel. Chocolate. Nougat. They are like the 4 ‘food groups’ of the candy world. And if you like a Snickers bar as is, you should really try freezing it."
