Each of the petals on these mini cupcakes in individually piped with vanilla American buttercream. You need the right tip and to get the frosting in just the right consistency for it to work but when it does, boy, it’s worth the effort, don’t you agree?

Make sure you celebrate all the wonderful women in your life today and tell them how awesome they are. This year I celebrated a little earlier on the 9th with 20 of you and it was incredible! In fact, we were having so much fun I forgot to take pictures 🤦🏻♀️ We met up at @blushteaandcoffeestpete and had a tasting of 5 dessert and tea pairings - each inspired by a women who’s changed or is changing the world. We had a lemon shortbread cookie inspired by RBG, a mixed berry pie inspired by Dorothy Vaughan, a pecan cookie inspired by Mary Shelley, “equality cupcakes” inspired by Megan Rapinoe and (of course!) waffles with chocolate ganache and strawberries honoring the creator of Galentine’s Day, badass supporter of women and creator of the @amypoehlersmartgirls @amy.poehler . The waffles were expertly nicknamed by one of the guests, @eggyfree, as the “Knope to Perfection Waffles” and I just love that! It was a wonderful evening of women celebrating women and that’s what the day is all about. Add vegan desserts and it doesn’t get any better than that 😉 #galentinesday #happygalentinesday #womensupportingwomen #womenempowerment #womeninspiringwomen A post shared by Curious Cat Bakery (@curiouscatbakery) on Feb 13, 2020 at 6:33am PST Whether you've been searching your whole life for some gorgeous vegan food or just want to know what a frosting garden would even taste like, Curious Cat Bakery is a totally unique place to stop by and dig into something beautiful.
