Derby Day! Mint Julep...Cupcake?
Every May I look forward to 3 events: My birthday, the Indianapolis 500 and the Kentucky Derby. The Derby and my birthday are sometimes on the same day, but not this year.

138th Running of the
Kentucky Derby
The Mint Julep is must have at the Kentucky Derby
So, I'm looking for a good one in Southern California
Found One!
Mint Julep
A bourbon mint cake with Kentucky bourbon
and creme de menthe frosting
Now this is a Mint Julep!
Great mint flavor in the frosting
with a bourbon kick in the cake...
No, I'm not at Churchill Downs,
I'm in Glendale!

I wanted to try the
Winning Derby cupcakes
and here they are...
Short Stack
"The Famous Blueberry Pancake Cupcake"
A Buttermilk cake and fresh blueberry filling
with a maple french butter cream frosting
This was my favorite one
Great pancake flavor and
Real blueberries too.
Peaches n' Cream
Buttermilk cake with fresh peach filling
and a marshmallow vanilla frosting
Very Southern
Bubbly
Signature chocolate cake with a strawberry filling
and a winning champagne frosting
This is how you celebrate a Victory!
You might be saying a cupcake is a cupcake, right?
But not many have a real fruit filling
