Happy Birthday Azen! I won’t try to count what’s your age now, for fear of panic attacks and migrain attacks too. But I sure hope you had a great one.

I should’ve blogged about it on the 18th July, but a lot of things happened. Anyways.

I’ve experimented with a few chocolate cupcake recipes. The one by Anna Olson featured on Sugar were really nice too. But these ones have got to be the BEST!

Got this from ZoeBakes and it’s just the best! The cuppies were really moist and remained soft even the day after.

I chose to make the Cream Cheese topping to contrast the dark dark cupcakes and also I thought the tang of the cream cheese would blend with the smoothness and chocolatey-ness of the cupcakes. I was not dissapointed.

Anyhow.

Azen was in Tokyo when I called to arrange for a send-off. He apparently had a jolly time in a lounge in Tokyo airport, something to do with automated toilet. Go figure! So, the gals in the office had the pleasure of more cupcakes.

Ciao!
