Today is Chocolate Cupcake Day

Chocolate Cupcake Day was established to celebrate that most perfect form of the Cupcake, the Chocolate Cupcake. Cupcakes are called by many names throughout the world, favourite would have to be the term “Fairy Cake”. The origin of the cupcake seems to go back as far as 1796, where cakes cooked in small cups were first mentioned, and the actual term cupcake was first seen in Eliza Leslie’s cookbook.

So popular is the idea of a personal cake, a cake of diminutive size, that there have been many different variations on both the style and technique. The invention of the microwave has even created recipes that enable you to mix and cook a cupcake in less than five minutes.

I'm not a fan really, I'd rather have more cake with my icing.

It's also No Beard Day if @Terrordales is looking for a day he can participate in

 

This should be entitled @Barry Haynes, @crossy2112 and @snotty day as I've heard them all refer to each other as "my little cupcake"!
