Cupcakes and Parties in the Park

These photos have been long overdue... for probably half a year already.

I'm not a fan of cupcakes unless they are super moist and not so sweet.  I think cupcakes are the one of the most easiest pastries to bake.  I thought of selling them before.  Unfortunately, I don't have an oven in our apartment.  Note to self: must buy our own baking oven someday.  

Well, I encountered these cupcakes in a kiddie party in the States.  I don't know if they're branded or was just home-baked by the hosts.  I enjoyed eating them because of the marshmallow toppings simulating a bucket of popcorn.

The first one I got was strawberry-flavored.  

And the bread was moist.  

I was able to finish the whole thing, of course.

The next one I got was flavored buttery caramel. 

It was also moist as the first one and it was much more tasty.

(note: couldn't rotate the pic below)

It was my first time to attend a birthday party in a park.  

Parties outdoors that I have attended were mostly weddings

and not kiddie parties

but I must say, it is much more fun than indoor kiddie parties.  

Weather was perfect.  And because there were so many trees,

it provided the perfect shade for the venue.
