Have you heard? Ms. Obama have recently planned to ban cupcakes ( and other sugar goodies) from being used as reference on U.S schools. Inviting Publishers to change textbooks on the Lets Move! blog .
This means math teachers will have to replace cupcakes for vegetables on their problem teaching.
No more hypothetical sugar for kids! God forbid they run home to stuf their little noses on cupcakes or cakes!
I still dont know if I have to laugh or cry .
I am just glad I dont live in the US and no one is planning to take my daughters right to count pastries.
What is the next move of the Lets Move ! Program?
What is the line between helping kids and being an autocrat? Whats next? A horse working for the white house?
I know this is a baking blog, not a political blog, but I am a baker and a mom and I feel like I have to stand for all the cupcakes out there who have done nothing to us but bring joy to our lifes!

5 de Mayo Chocolate Cupcakes
5 de Mayo. An important date in the history of Mexico... The french forces were defeated by General Zaragoza in an epic battle... And what a better way to commemorate this date that fighting my own battle, against chocolate, against every flat or gooish chocolate cupcake I have ever made. This time I went prepared for this battle of mine with the perfect recipe, the best ingredients, the girls were sleeping and the time was right, ... As I aproached de mixer I prayed for fluffines, moisture and hight... When I finished with my batter I was confident, it looked great, smelled great and It had no butter! Everything was perfect what possibly could go wrong???
I have no answer, I am a desgrace for my ancestors and a shame for the cupcake world... Chocolate won again!
I swear I am not trying to make this blog like Pintester ( I love it!!! , if you want to laught I highly recommend it) where this lady messes things up just for the fun of it .
I have made Bannana cupcakes with no problem at all, vanilla, and even carrot cupcakes , but chocolate cupcakes are my nemesis, my big obstacle , they just wont come out for me!!!
Do you have a great and easy recipe to help me in my quest? What am I doing with my chocolate that allways goes wrong?
This time the problem is overflow... I swear I just filled them 1/3 2/3 like Im supposed to, like I allways fill my liners ... This is what happened:
In case you are wondering what wonderful recipe did I follow was the recipe from The Alchemist , great blogger and excellent baker and teacher. This is the link to read it : The best moisture chocolate cupcakes
