Step aside, chocolate. You had your turn in October. It’s time for the vanilla cupcake to take the stage.
National Vanilla Cupcake Day is celebrated annually on November 10. Vanilla might be the most overlooked and underappreciated flavor, so it’s high time it got the love and attention it deserves. If going to the bakery for your cupcake fix isn’t your style, you should definitely try these recipes at home: vanilla buttermilk cupcakes, raspberry filled vanilla cupcakes, or vanilla cupcakes with strawberry frosting.
If you’re new to baking, vanilla is your gateway flavor to work with. The beauty about it is that it’s so versatile. You can mix and match it to almost anything. Chocolate, berries, you name it! If you prefer something a little fancier, we’ll be celebrating all types of flavors for National Cupcake Day on December 15.
So, is vanilla the best flavor out there? As much as I don’t want to start an all-out cupcake war, you can tell us what your favorite flavor is in a comment below!
