In our house, we never go a day without dessert. That’s just how it is. We eat dinner and then have a sweet treat right after. In fact, our motto is that…

There’s always leave room for dessert

We’ve got our dessert routine down to a science. First, I go into my corner and eat dinner out of my favorite blue bowl, while mom sits at her dining room table and eats hers.

After I lick my bowl clean, I wait patiently for her to finish her dinner. Then, she puts a yummy little dessert into my blue bowl, and proceeds to eat hers.

If you haven’t guessed, we absolutely LOVE dessert. And, why would you deny yourself of something you love?

Dessert is the perfect way to top off a delicious meal at the end of a long day. These Raspberry Pupcakes With Raspberry Cream Cheese Frosting are no different.

Try them and let us know what you think. Also, we believe that every pupcake has a story and one perfect for occasion. So, we’d love to hear your pupcake story…
