On February 16th Vancouver had its 3rd annual Cupcake Throwdown to benefit the H.A.V.E . held at Chapel Arts.
This was our 3rd year participating. Like the past years, this year did not disappoint!
This year was much bigger then previous years, as a result I was so busy I only managed to snap a few quick pictures with my phone. Some participants arrived a bit late, and so I was not able to get a shot of everyones cupcakes. Still, lots of creative cupcakes to share...
WARNING! Cupcake overload ahead!
First off, our vegan Mexican Hot Chocolate cupcake. This cupcake is a spiced up chocolate cake with a chilli and spice ganache filling, topped with cream cheese icing. My inspiration for the decoration was a day of the dead theme, with sugar skulls and roses.
Here is a picture I took before we left the bakery:

Huzzah! I'm glad you took a lot of pictures, because everything is seriously a blur. I'm also really glad I got to try your treats - they were def in my top fav vegan treats out there (those raw vegan cupcakes were TO DIE FOR too!).
