Goodbye W., Part II

For every celebration there is a perfect cupcake. The combination of flavors and enhancements present in my Hello Obama cupcakes represent a medley of symbolism. 

These golden vanilla cupcakes (for the Illinois’s golden boy) are lemon-almond flavored.  Not only because I ran out of vanilla extract and had to compensate with lemon and almond extracts, but because lemon is a symbol of purification and almond, of wisdom. Two things we need after 8 years of W.  And the frosting: Red + White + Blue doesn’t make a monkey outta you, it makes a pretty shade of purple. A lot like the “not-too-sweet blueberry mousse” frosting from VCTOTW I used on these bad boys. Underneath this blended patriotism is a sticky seat of Ricemellow Vegan “Political Fluff”… for the endured years of mimbo-ism. It’s all over now. 
There, there. That’s much better.
