A Mean Cupcake

My new cupcake passion was totally inspired by the show GLEE.

I was trying to find a great background for my GLEE Twitter account last summer (because I am a total & I thought the iconic slushee would be perfect! I looked all over the web for a great GLEE slushee/slushee-facial pic to use. I came across a pic of cupcakes someone made to look like the “Big Quench” slushees from GLEE! They were so adorable! And it was a cupcake…another GLEE reference. So that’s the pic I used. But everytime I looked at it, I wanted a cupcake AND a slushee.

Well, when Season 2 was quickly approaching, I wanted to have a GLEE kick-off party…with all of the perfect GLEE food references & inspirations! So I wanted to make the slushee cakes…but not just LOOK like like the slushees, but TASTE like them too!

It took a couple of test runs, and I now make slushee cakes in several flavors! They are totally adorable & totally taste like a slushee in cake form!!
