Beautiful Food: Romanesco and Lemon Blueberry Cupcakes

I’ve been playing with food photography lately and wanted to share these shots. Have a wonderful Friday!

Romanesco is a green cauliflower with a slightly nutty taste. It came in my Farm Fresh to You box (a weekly box of organic goodies delivered to my doorstep). I can’t wait to roast it up this weekend with some olive oil and parmesan. (Interested in Farm Fresh to You? Use ALYS6615 for $10 off your first box.)

I wanted to make Valentine’s Day treats for the guys at my husband’s office, so I whipped up a batch of semi-homemade lemon blueberry cupcakes. (Semi-homemade as in use a box mix for Lemon Cake, then add blueberries, more lemon juice, and top with homemade Cream Cheese lemon frosting. Yum!) The icing is with the Wilton 2D rose tip, with yellow food coloring streaked inside the bag to create an ombre effect. They came out so pretty!
