These are beautiful Ivonne, and the flavours sound devine. I agree that friendships are the best part about blogging.

Great choice! These look amazing.

Oh, I know what you mean on so many levels! The baking for friends, the allowing yourself creativity to pick the flavors, the beautiful people one meets through food blogging… so so true! These are lovely and I am sure were enjoyed tremendously!

i love it when i have to choose flavours these cupcakes look so good and so nice.

They are so pretty, like jewels. I like Jasmine too, she is lovely.

Those are so elegant! Love them!

Very pretty cupcakes! I love the way they look…

Cheers,

Rosa

They look beautiful! And with all the summery fruit around, you’re quite right to bake with non-chocolatey flavours.

They sure look delicious Ivonne! I’ve never tried rosewater (wouldn’t really know where to get it to be honest) but it sounds like it is worth trying!

Those turned out adorable.

Ivonne,
Your site is one of the best food sites I’ve come across on the web. Extraordinary. Your choice of recipes and offerings are first rate. The recipe for Sicilian Cassata you chose was very authentic (I actually worked briefly at a Sicilian bakery in my home town of Messina, Sicily when I was a youngster). High quality material.

If only you had a friend who’d send you cookies and maybe “demand” a blog story about them…

I know you are confident with my language and here http://iodagrande.blogspot.com/2009/05/il-filo-dellamicizia-e-un-fallo.html is what I’m thinking about friendness at internet time…it will a pleasure if you’ll spend some of your time reading it. if you have sokme difficult please do not hesitate I’ll here to translate.
kisses and hugs

Isn’t it great how blogging about food can bring people together? Ahh I love it!

Beautiful looking cupcakes. This is the third post I’ve come across today that has dragee’s (the little silver balls) and I get so frustrated that I can’t buy them here in California.

Absolutely gorgeous cupcakes. I wished I lived in Canada, so that you could make ME some cupcakes, too.

Beautiful, divine and a very winning way to appreciate friends. Lovely post - the photo…the cupcake…the friendship.

I love your site. I come here to dream..I want to try so many of the things you make. This week I am going to make some of these lucsious recipes.
Thank You, Nita

I’ve used rosewater on my face, but never cooked with it. These are very elegant cakes (cupcake doesn’t sound mature enough for them) and, I’m sure, very delicious, too.

It seems that we were both in a cupcake making mood! Yours look deliciously elegant.

I like your idea to bake something new and delicious for friends. These cupcakes are so cool. Congratulations with the great idea and the result. They look wonderful!

You’re so crazy good in the kitchen! Am I ever going to have stuff as pretty as that!? I will keep practicing!

Beautiful as always. They look absolutely delicious and such a great break from the usual cupcake we’re all used to.

Hmm,raspberry..

I like the let’s-browse-some-cookbooks-and see-what-we come-up-with approach.

The friendships are indeed one of the things I love about blogging! These cupcake look so pretty and imagine the taste is fantastic…i wish we could get fresh raspberries here!

Friends are the glory of living well.
… so are these cupcakes

Pretty and very Jasmine like I think. They seem to suit her.

These look lovely and since I just bought a bottle of rose water, I would have to say they may be in my future.

Wanting a good cupcake receipe so the I can make my greatgrandson his first birthday cake. The mother wants it made out od individual cupcakes ? These in the article look delicious
