Mustachio Pistachio Cupcakes

I've been wanting to try my hand at pistachio cupcakes for some time, but it seemed like I always found some other exciting baking conquest that peaked my interest just little bit more. Poor pistachio time and again set up camp on the back burner.
What made me finally give these little guys a chance, you ask? Quite simply, a silly rhyme and coincidentally an idea too cute not to bring to life. 

And so, Mustachio Pistachio was born!    Refined gentleman, a little nutty.

Bridal Shower Cake

 I've often fantasized about creating a magical, whimsical cake with fondant and gumpaste and buttercream, oh my! I think, how hard could it really be?

Then the fear sets in that it could actually be extremely hard and I could end up with cake on the ceiling, a slip n' slide of icing on the floor, and a boyfriend that is about 5 minutes away from committing the now crazy, babbling zombie that used to be his somewhat normal girlfriend. This is the story of my first paid cake job.

This recipe is one of my favorites, and a perfect base to sub in countless combinations of your favorites (almonds, chocolate chunks, hazelnuts, etc.). The best part? No butter, and it's around 100 calories per serving!
