I had the pleasure to taste the top ten records in Duncan Hines
Red Carpet Cupcake challenge yesterday. Together with judges from Saveur,
Dear Home Journal and better homes and gardens and the fabulous
Cupcake Cafe in Manhattan I helped to select a really tasty recipe to
be served at the Emmys. The judging was tough, there were so many
great recipe ideas. Ingredients ranging from salted caramel to
homemade toffee peanut butter, and even beautiful star fruit slices
was applied. But in the end, judges found consensus around a cupcake
There were aptly named Red Carpet Glamour cupcake. It has raspberry
taste in a red velvet cake and a tasty smooth raspberry buttercream
and a fresh berries on top. Delicious! Congratulations to the winner
Katie Rousonelous, Wisconsin. What a fantastic recipe. Her red carpet
Glamour cupcake will be served by artist nominee Reception
next month, and Katie Gets a place in the red carpet for the event.
Below is a shot of all ten entries, Red Carpet Glamour cupcake

creativity represented in the finalists. Recipes must be on the
