My favourite type of cupcake is a mocha cupcake with mocha icing. I use a recipe that I found in Taste of Home magazine, and I just LOVE these cupcakes. They cupcakes are a hit with everyone who tries them, both kids and adults. I have had to give away the recipe numerous times because they are so wonderful. The entire cupcake is delicious, from the extra-rich cupcake to the fluffy frosting, swirled so pretty, chocolate sprinkles and I add a chocolate covered coffee bean in the center of the swirl just for that final finishing touch. I love to decorate them very pretty, because then they just seem to taste better.
I love white cake cupcakes with light butter cream frosting!

My FAVORITE cupcake is chocolate with cream cheese in the middle! YUM!!!
My favorite kind of cupcake is chocolate cake with peanut butter icing and peanut butter cups on top! yummy!
It definitely has to be a chocolate cupcake. I really like browned-butter icing that has a sort of maple flavor. Yum!
My favorite cupcake is one that I just made a batch of...Lemon Rosemary cupcakes with lemon drizzle. Thanks, Better Homes and Gardens :)
I love lemon cupcakes with milk chocolate frosting. My husband is a big fan of yellow cake with chocolate frosting. And our daughter loves just about any cupcake...especially ones she can decorate with pink sprinkles. :)

chocolate angel food cake topped with fresh whipped cream made with crushed raspberries
My favorite cupcake is the same as my favorite cake - German Chocolate. Yum! :) I don't get them very often since nobody else in my family likes them.
My favorite cupcake is vanilla with butter cream frosting! Yummy! Thanks!
My favorite kind of cupcake is any kind with CHOCOLATE...without CHOCOLATE it just isn't the same...
My facorite cupcake is chocolate with chocolate chips. I have my own personal recipe and it's one of the few things I make totally from scratch.
My favorite type of cupcake is a blast from my childhood past. I love cupcake cones. Typically I put white cake into them and making the ice cream part (frosting) white and then top with lots of sprinkles to really make it look like an ice cream cone.
I whip up a mean batch of chocolate chunk with chocolate ganache frosting! It is so yummy and absolutely guilt free (in my head at least)! I really could use this carrier so I can bring some in to treat my friends at work as well as the kids at my daughters school!
I love Rocky Road cupcakes. Chocolate cupcake with caramel buttercream frosting, a little marshmallow cream, pecans and drizzled chocolate top this awesome cupcake!!
Chocolate with cream cheese frosting!!! :o)
CHOCOLATE! Any kind of chocolate with chocolate frosting and if it has bonus chocolate chunks in it then great! Yummmmmmmmy!
I'm just a boring traditionalist. I love chocolate cupcakes with chocolate frosting! To me it doesn't get any better than that. Reminds me of being a kid. And it's what my kids and husband love, so it's what I make! :o)

I've never made this cupcake, or even tasted it, but I'd LOVE to try the Chocolate Graham Cracker with Toasted Marshmallow cupcakes from www.trophycupcakes.com. I saw them on the Martha Stewart show during cupcake week and thought they looked delicious. They are like an ooey gooey smores in a cupcake wrapper1 Graham cracker crust on the bottom, chocolate cake, graham cracker layer on top, topped with real toasted marshmallow. Yum, yum!
Chocolate with Chocolate and more Chocolate
I love peanut butter cupcakes! They are made with a yellow cake mix and have yummy peanut butter icing! Mmmm! :)
Thanks for a yummy giveaway,

I love Key Lime Cupcakes!
Here is the recipe:
Ingredients
• 2 cups all purpose flour
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup cold water
• 1/2 cup oil
• 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• 7 large eggs, separated
• 2 teaspoons grated key lime rind
• 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 cupcake pans with paper liners.
Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add shortening, milk, and vanilla. Beat 7 egg yolks in a separate bowl, and add to dry ingredients along with the water, oil, vanilla and key lime rind. Mix with mixer at medium speed while scraping bowl until well blended. (approximately 2 1/2 minutes)
In another large mixing bowl, combine egg whites and cream of tartar. Mix at high speed 2 to 2 1/2 minutes or until egg whites are stiff.
Carefully fold flour mixture into egg whites until just blended.
Pour cupcake batter into paper liners until 1/2 to 2/3 full.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until top springs back when touched lightly.
Cool cupcakes completely in pans then drizzle with key lime glaze.
To make key lime glaze combine 1 cup powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon melted butter in a small mixing bowl. Stir in 2 - 3 tablespoons of key lime juice until slightly thin glaze consistency is reached. Drizzle over key lime cupcakes.

My favorite is a butter flavored yellow cake cupcake with cream cheese chocolate frosting. Yummy!!! This carrier would be great - at my office we always bring in food to share.
I just made 2 cakes for my daughter's 21st birthday. I put the wrong icing on the cakes. I accidentally put strawberry icing on a banana cake. It was a hit! So the next cupcakes I am going to make will be strawberry banana and I would love to put them in your cupcake holder!
Happy Earth Day! I never met a cupcake I didn't like!!!!! German chocolate cake is one of my favorites and I like German Chocolate cupcakes.
Please enter me in your third week drawing. I appreciate it.....Cindi

Confetti cake! My favorite cupcake has to by confetti cake. I know it is mostly known as a kids type of cupcake but I just love them!
My sister is studying to be a culinary arts major so this would be a great graduation gift. It is also good for me so that I may take to school.
It is horrible taking 3 pans with cupcakes in tight rows. These pans make it impossible to get a cupcake without smudging the rest. This would be perfect for me! PLEASE! I must have it!
It is ironic that I found this post tonight because I dreamed about cupcakes last night, craved them ALL DAY long, and then finally broke down and made a batch tonight. It would have been really nice to have a cupcake holder at the time, but they ended up just sitting on different plates all over the kitchen! The cupcakes that I made were made from scratch vanilla cupcakes with chocolate icing, but my absolute favorite cupcakes EVER are chocolate cupcakes with raspberry filling and raspberry icing!
I have a yummy recipe for chocolate cupcakes made with chocolate pudding in the cake, with a chocolate pudding middle, and chocolate frosting. Can you tell I like chocolate? Thanks for the great contest - I could really use one of these.
Ok, now I'm hungry :) My favorite are blueberry muffins, but some of these comments sound so delicious, yum yum ♥
Chocolate cupcake with chocolate buttercream icing!
It has to be chocolate cupcakes with chocolate chunks and fluffy chocolate frosting.
You can't pick just one with a sister like mine -- she makes a different cupcake for us to sample each week. Usually I would go for a chocolate cupcake with a large helping of chocolate frosting on top, but lately I have really been enjoying some of her others like cookies 'n creme, strawberry or her butterscotch....mmmmm! I am craving one just thinking about it!
Most definitely vanilla with fluffy coconut frosting...mmmmm....

Red Velvet with Cream Cheese Frosting! YUM! Thanks for the chance to win this great prize!
I love the confetti cupcakes-not because of how they look and taste(those reasons are just the bonus reasons) but because of the look on my girls' faces when they see them. My 7 year old like to add some sprinkles on top too. Favorites!

It is so hard just picking one cupcake to be my favorite, but I guess I would say my dark chocolate cupcake with my mint buttercream on top! Nothing beats chocolate with mint, I could eat the entire two dozen by myself! The double butterscotch comes in at a close second!
I've been wanting a lime coconut vanilla bean cupcake...doesn't that sound just wonderful? With flaked coconut on top of a vanilla frosting....yum!
my favorite cupcake has nothing to do w/ flavor but everything to do with the fact that I just made them for my daughter's FIRST BIRTHDAY! So...first birthday cupcakes for my first child...those are my favs!!! *elizabeth
I love chocolate ganache cupcakes. I made some with fudge frosting once but my husband didn't like it (!!!)
but he likes them with chocolate chips in them (!!!)

My favorite is butter/yellow cake with chocolate frosting. Simple yet a delight to the taste buds. Thanks for entering me in your contest and good luck to everyone.
vanilla with buttercream and chocolate sprinkles!!!
Ok, first of all.. there's no such thing as a bad cupcake! ;)
BUT... I love chocolate cupcakes. MMMMMMM. I recently read a suggestion to stuff a hershey kiss down in the middle of the batter before baking. I haven't tried it yet - but I'm going to!
Secondly, I liked what I saw when I saw the blue carrier -- and then I saw the PINK one! I'd love to have one of those!
Recently I used some Martha Stewart recipes. The cupcake flavor is irrelevant. The ICING was brilliant. Swiss Meringue Buttercream. Buttery, not to sweet, and it used kosher salt so you'd get a little taste of salt in each bite. Oh man.
Chocolate with cream cheese filling.
My favorite kind of cupcake is chocolate with cream cheese/cool whip frosting.

Oooh I love that cupcake holder! Now, I'm not much of a cupcake fan but I do looooove muffins! My fave is a cranberry lemon muffin recipe I finally found a few months ago. It's soooo yummy!

My favorite cupcake isn't officially called a cupcake. It's a chocolate chocolate chip "muffin." (But, IMO, if it's chocolate with chocolate chips, it's a cupcake! lol)

Anything with chocolate is good, too!

My favorite cupcakes are carrot cake with cream cheese frosting! As much as I usually like chocolate, I don't enjoy most other frostings. The carrot cake/cream cheese combo is perfect, though!

My favorite type of cupcake is carrot cake cupcakes or double fudge cupcakes! Yummy! kristinialeanna@yahoo.com
My favorite cupcake is actually from a local cupcake bakery. Dozen Cupcakes is well known here in Pittsburgh for not only its delectable cupcakes, but also for its creativity combining some of the most unlikely flavors into new, exciting creations.
The Cosmo cupcake boasts of a vanilla cake with vodka and lime juice soaked cranberries. The buttercream frosting is lime infused with a swirl of pink and white sugar crystals. Garnished with a lime, it is absolutely the best cupcake I've had. It's feminine and delicious!
Here's their picture of the cupcake

I love Red Velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting!
Mmmm cupcakes!! I LOVE ice cream cone cupcakes, where they bake them inside the ice cream cones? No messy wrapper to deal with, and easy to hold when icing them. :) My favorite is probably yellow cupcakes with chocolate icing, but honestly, I'll eat almost any kind. ^^ Thanks for the contest!
My favorite is carrot cupcakes with cream-cheese frosting...YUM!

My favorite cupcake.... it's a strawberry lover's dream. Regular strawberry cake mix, made with sour cream. Add a spoonful of stawberry jam in the middle of each cupcake before baking. Then top with creamy strawberry frosting. DELICIOUS!!!
