A Little Something for Your Sweet Tooth

Posted on the 09 January 2013 by Jessicavenoy @lovelyjesscuh
Some of you might totally hate me for this post. But I promise that once you taste one of these babies that you definitely won't hate me anymore ;) I know that a lot of people are trying to cut out sweets and eat healthy with it being the New Year and all, but like I mentioned, I'm not one for New Year's resolutions. So today, I'm blogging about cupcakes.
These aren't just any cupcakes y'all. These are "adult" cupcakes. Yes, I mean cocktail inspired cupcakes. And one of the flavors even involves edible glitter...I went there.

Meet Sheri, the mastermind behind the biz.
(She's actually my brother's girlfriend's mom...and she is SUCH a sweetheart!)

"Sweet Shot Cupcakes was started by myself, Sheri Harwood, in 2011 as a creative outlet after retiring from coaching cheerleading for more than 10 years. Baking has always been in my family, with my grandmother 'Mama Dunn' sharing her many years of experience as the dietitian and manager of the Baptist Hospital Coffee Shop.
Moving from South Carolina to The Villages, Florida about a year ago, I was excited to combine my Southern heritage into both traditional and fun loving alcohol infused cupcakes. The response has been overwhelming! We have even had the privilege of providing cupcakes for many philanthropic fundraising endeavors, such as the Renaissance Fair, which was a fundraiser for Moffitt Cancer Center at The Villages.
Over the past year we have fallen in love with each and every one of our cupcakes. We have always started from scratch and created each recipe with passion and love, which we think shows!"

Sheri sent me a box of cupcakes to try and all I can say is delicious! I tasted all 4 of the ones shown above and each one was like a little piece of heaven in my mouth. No joke. I have a major sweet tooth, so when it comes to sweets, I don't mess around...

My favorite one was the one pictured above...yes the one with glitter on it. I ate glitter and so that automatically makes me more fabulous, wouldn't you say? ;) It's called the Chocolate Cherry CoridalEvery last bite melted in my mouth.
