Cupcakes: Expressions of Geekiness

How do you know that Apple’s Iphone is making inroads with mobile consumers? How about someone spending the time to meticulously re-create the Iphone’s touch-based user-interfaced with baked goods?

To Rim, I haven’t seen cupcakes made to resemble the Blackberry interface. Then again, given the price of the new Blackberry Bold, perhaps proud owners simply don’t have the funds to purchase the ingredients.

How do you know that Apple’s MacOS is making inroads with computing enthusiasts? How about someone spending the time to create Mac-inspired chocolate frosted cupcakes?

To Microsoft, I’m glad you’ve decided that confusing your market is something you no longer want to do. However, don’t think that spinning a badly thought out lead up to a “real” marketing campaign is going to get you cupcakes. Nothing good came with hiring Jerry Seinfeld.

Cupcakes sound delicious? How about manufacturing speakers for mobile devices in the shape of cupcakes?

Even though these were released in 2007, I think they’re going to make great Christmas gifts this year. I hope Semk still makes them…

If you’re going to make cupcakes, you’re gonna need a good recipe. I suggest Alton Brown’s recipe for Chiffon cupcakes. However, how do you know how long cupcakes have been in the oven? How about a cupcake timer?

Mild-mannered IT professional by day and food blogger by night, I founded foodiePrints with a single intention, to share my love of all things food. My first post shared a recipe. Many followed. Eventually, I learned Ottawa prepares and serves great food. Thereafter, I started meeting restaurateurs, chefs, cooks, farmers, and other local producers, all good people. Ideas for food-related content swirled in my head. foodiePrints grew into a place to put them. From exploring foreign and domestic cuisines to shopping for exotic ingredients and cobbling together my takes on dishes in my meager kitchen, there are stories to tell. Welcome to foodiePrints. Here, you will find stories about food and drink, cooking, and eating in Canada’s capital. Be it food-related or just food-for-thought, I hope you find something tasty here.
