Banana Caramel Cupcakes

October 30, 2010 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 17 Comments

Everything looks better with some Japanese Masking Tape….

I used the Banana Caramel Cupcake recipe from Cupcakes, Cheesecakes, and Cookies, with a lemon cream cheese frosting. They were the perfect afternoon tea treat today:)

I purchased my tape from Pretty Tape.
