A cupcake is to be indulged! Besides, a "healthy cupcake" is a crummy cupcake if you ask me. I'm just saying. :)Lelan @ Good Gravy!https://www.blogger.com/profile/01955418365598681973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5876694734336501552.post-60303598040770439812010-09-15T16:26:34.690-04:002010-09-15T16:26:34.690-04:00I am with you.

I'm not sure what you substitute for sugar, milk or butter in a frosting recipe, but I'm guessing it can't compare to good ol' fatty frosting. And none of that whipped stuff--why even bother.<br /><br />Listen, I am all for healthy. I mean, I don't feed my kids pixie sticks for dinner or anything. But I tend to be an all or nothing type of personality, and if I focused on making everything my kids ate "healthy", I would drive myself nutso. We eat fruits and veggies. We also eat McDonalds. I don't beat myself up if I nuke chicken nuggets for dinner once a week. For heavens sake, I was raised on Spam, and I am a specimen of health. I need to be flexible, and I need my kids to be flexible, more than I need to be obsessive over sodium content.Sara D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13412743896316112786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5876694734336501552.post-11449338077837546522010-09-15T09:44:27.474-04:002010-09-15T09:44:27.474-04:00Ok, I love cupcakes, who doesn't?

Special occasions? eat the good stuff but if you frequent the shop often, a pumpkin based cupcake wouldn't be horrible - think of it has a lower fat muffin, sort of a cupffin (not that most muffins are healthy but you get my drift).Jessica @ Barefoot by the Seahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17144598980710841824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5876694734336501552.post-41319161569103259532010-09-15T08:34:01.919-04:002010-09-15T08:34:01.919-04:00Haha, I agree with you... nice in theory, but I...Haha, I agree with you... nice in theory, but I'm gonna go with the yummy cupcake [aka "bad" cupcake]Mandy Englandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16348649322575444382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5876694734336501552.post-7307695635314070442010-09-15T08:27:22.926-04:002010-09-15T08:27:22.926-04:00I would never vote against sugar, lard and high ca...I would never vote against sugar, lard and high calorie fabulousness. Old School cupcakes RULE. <br />However, I do think she will find a market for those-I think there are a lot of Moms who at least want to offer a healthier alternative.
