Lemon Raspberry Cupcakes
No one loves winter more than I do. The snow, getting all bundled up... I love it! But there are days when even I miss summer, especially the fresh fruits. Anyone who knows me knows that I have a slight obsession with raspberries, and it is with that in mind that we bring to you a little taste of the summer to help you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, even if it is freezing outside!
Our Lemon Raspberry Cupcake starts with the same lemon cake from our Double Lemon Cupcake, but laced with a swirl of raspberry filling. We created a new raspberry lemon cream cheese icing for the frosting, and perched atop this ode to summertime is a fresh raspberry*, a happy reminder of things to come.

*Raspberries available when in season. If fresh raspberries are unavailable, we will substitute with your choice of ripe fruit or candy decoration.

Christmas Treats
What's Christmastime without some of your favorite treats? With the big day just around the corner, we are happy to bring you some of our personal favorite winter confections!
We start with the classic chocolate covered pretzel rod, which you can order in either milk or white chocolate. We have topped ours this holiday with green and red candy drizzles and festive Christmas sprinkles.
We've also got our crowd favorite (and Susan's favorite as well), our Peppermint Bark. A medley of milk and white chocolate marbled together to create perfect harmony with a hint of peppermint, and a sprinkling of crushed candy canes. Shards of this minty treat are sure to leave you wanting more. And with it being a holiday and all, we encourage you to indulge yourself...
We'll finish off today's post with a How Sweet It Is original. We have a slight obsession here at HSII with mixing together the sweet and salty worlds. We decided to create a Salted Caramel Peanut Bark. It's creamy milk chocolate with a marbling of caramel sauce inside, salted peanut pieces, and a blizzard of sea salt on top.
Please email us at HowSweetItIsUT@gmail.com with any last minute Christmas orders. A tin or package of these goodies will be a welcome gift for any family member or friend.
Have a very Merry Christmas from Corinne and Susan at How Sweet It Is!

Whoopie Pies
We recently were able to photograph our Whoopie Pies. (That's right, we don't just do cupcakes.) We love these little guys. If you've never had a whoopie pie, it's sort of a cross between a cake and a cookie. They have two cake-like patties with a creamy filling sticking them together. ...And they are scrumptious.
Our Whoopie Pies are the traditional chocolate flavor. The cake is moist and dense, similar to our classic chocolate cupcake recipe. The filling for Whoopie Pies is most commonly made from marshmallow creme, and as neither Corinne nor Susan are very big marshmallow fans, our filling is a hybrid of marshmallow and our traditional vanilla frosting.
All put together, they are very decadent and very addictive. We have them photographed here in the regular and mini sizes. They are sweet, and a bit sticky, and a perfect chocolate treat.
Special thanks to TZRollins Photography for the beautiful photos. Please check back soon for photos and info on our Chrismas gift tins and packages. How Sweet It Is confections make great holiday presents!
