CupCake PodCasts

So I recently found something on iTunes (that has always been there but I ignored until now) that is perfect for all you cupcake lovers out there. Podcasts! They're short little episodes about various topics that you can download right onto your computer. And the best part: they're FREE!!! Now I looked for podcasts that only had to do with cupcakes, and I only found a few, but I compiled a list of podcasts that have everything to do with baked goods. If you use your imagination you can come up with your own cupcake ideas!

1. Here's my favorite: The Cupcake Show. It's exactly what it sounds like, a show about cupcakes. The episodes are usually range from 6 to 10 minutes and include fun ideas about cupcakes. It made me want to try the Key Lime Cupcakes!!

2. We all know Betty Crocker makes a mean cupcake. In this podcast I found she also makes all sorts of wonderful treats. One episode that really got my mouth watering was Calling All Chocoholics. There are some great ideas that would fit perfect with any chocolate cupcake!

3. We drink it every morning, but some of us forget that coffee is great as a dessert. The Culinary Institute of America has great ideas on how to turn coffee into a sweet treat! It made me want to add it to icing on top of a rich chocolate cupcake!

4. I know we've talked about it before: Cupcakes are all the rage when it comes to weddings. The Wedding Planning Gurus have great ideas for cakes that can easily be turned into a cupcake for your special day!

5. A fabulous tutorial podcast I found goes through steps to baking a cake...which can again be easily transfered to mini cakes. One episode in Howdini-Baking Cakes I found particularly useful was where he talked about using piping bags, which are essential in cupcake decorating.
