Tonight's 20 minute sketch is of one of those fancy cupcakes that still seem to be so popular. Even though I think the "cupcake trend" is long over, bake shops don't give up so easily.
I would prefer to have a regular slice of cake. Slices have layers, with less frosting and more filling. Bakery frosting is always too sweet and heavy (except for a cupcake shop in NYC we tried once and then went out of our way on return visits to enjoy... so-so cake but the best cake frosting ever, probably made from 99% butter and 1% sugar). Since I enjoy baking and creating delicious cakes the way I prefer, I don't often sample bakery cakes. But they are fun to paint. Watercolor, 5 1/2" x 8".
