I read in the news paper today that " Americans will never lose their sweet tooth." This lady saw that and said, she is going to start a cupcake company.  She had no formal culinary training, but she had baked cupcakes with her mother as long as she could remember. She started making test batches of cupcakes at home every day to perfect her recipes, giving them to family members to critique. Her cupcakes now sell for $35 per dozen.

  1. It is true! For example look at Paula Dean, she kept her diabetes secret while cooking foods not healthy for diabetics but tasted soo good.

  2. I believe this too! People will give up lots of things but not their food and their sweets specifically. Even while I am on Weight Watchers losing weight I have made sure I had enough points to eat some Weight Watchers deserts. I love cupcakes and cakes especially.

  3. I am amazed at the sweet tooth of so many people. I really don't prefer sweets, but I do like a little bit of chocolate with peanut butter or peanuts!

  10. I love cupcakes! I think that when you see all the research about sugar being as addictive as cocaine it makes sense.
