The Return of Cupcake Saturday!

Yay! Cupcake Saturday has returned!   I would love to say that I missed my weekly cupcake last week but I was completely happy to have traded it for a much needed and desperately enjoyed Saturday off!  I had family visiting me from out of state and my bosses were kind enough to let me have a Saturday off in the crazy busy summer season.  Thank you to them for that!!  I had a lovely weekend with family spent floating in the ocean and laying in the sand.  I didn't even miss my Saturday cupcake! 
Alas, the Saturday off is over and I am back at the toy store, doing what I do best, and eating cupcakes with my Saturday sidekick!  This week the flavor of the day on Saturday was Rolo!  I have tried this one before, but I was really craving chocolate so I decided to give it a whirl again...it did not disappoint.  I am a huge fan of caramel.  I think it is my favorite candy overall.  This cupcake imitates the Rolo candy very, very well.  It is a deep chocolate cupcake, which was very moist, filled with caramel.  Yum......! It is covered by a layer of chocolate ganache which is decorated by a caramel swirl.  This was soooo good.  I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Only four more punches on our card until we get a free cupcake and today I was thinking about how that will probably be one of the last Cupcake Saturdays I will be celebrating with my sidekick as she is leaving me to go back to school at the end of the summer.  :(  So sad.  I will miss her.  I am sure I can find someone else to pass on the tradition with, but it probably won't be the same.  Something to think about when I am looking for her replacement....will this employee love Cupcake Saturday?  :)
