Ever wondered who baked the first cupcake? In 1796, Amelia Simmons wrote a recipe for a light cake to bake in small cups in American Cookery. Fast forward three decades or so and Eliza Leslies Cookbook made the first mention of the term cupcake, meaning a small cake baked in a single cup. And the rest, as they say, is history.

In today's popular culture, the word "cupcake" has come to mean so much more than just a term of endearment. There are literally hundreds of specialty cupcake bakeries in the City of New York alone. Cupcake bakeries are springing up in all 50 states from Alaska to Hawaii.

Doughnuts come and go, but the world's cupcake obsession continues.

The recipes divided into four easy to read sections: Fruit, Chocolate, Gluten Free/Vegan, and Over 21s. You will be able to fuel your passion for baking with this book.
