This is not your mother's cupcake cookbook

The Butch Bakery does cupcakes like nobody else. You can forget the pretty sparkles and the flowers on top, forget the pastel cupcakes for Easter or Halloween. These aren't cupcakes for little kids, but grown-up cupcakes full of contemporary, inventive flavors—like bacon, whiskey, coffee, and cayenne pepper.

The Butch Bakery Cookbook offers cupcakes for the twenty-first century—like a cupcake imbued with two different liqueurs or a devil's food cake made truly diabolical with a dose of chili powder. These are serious sweets. They're delightfully different and dangerously delicious.

Author David Arrick has received tremendous media coverage since opening Butch BakeryPerfect for dessert or cupcake lovers who are tired of the same old vanilla or chocolate cake with icing on top

For anyone who wants a dessert that breaks the mold and challenges the taste buds with modern flavors and inspired ingredients, The Butch Bakery Cookbook delivers the goods—seriously.

Title: What a great Cupcake book
Review: I really enjoy this cupcake book as it is different from the usual. More gutsy flavours and yes geared for the guys. Which is a great thing as the flavours are more interesting yet still great moist cupcake recipes and yummy combination frostings with the addition of alcohols but you can still leave it out if you wish. Great advice on switching up combinations and overall easy to follow and great result every time. Wonderful photo's to go with each recipe,so glad I bought this book. Worth it!

Title: More cupcakes please!
Review: I think I have about half a dozen cupcake cookbooks but this is in the top 2 (hah, not hard to do I guess when there's only 6... if you ain't first, yer last). The recipes are creative, easy to follow and have good baking tips. It is a little corny in the style but oh well, you still are able to easily use it. It definitely becomes the topic of conversation at a party when you roll up with some liquored up cupcakes.

Title: Big,Bold But Not Just for Boys
Review: Featuring super sized cupcakes with big bold flavors and and chock full of sports motifs, this book will definitely draw the men into the kitchen. The photographs are beautiful and the directions are easy. Purists might take issue with the measuring technique (using the same cup for both wet and dry ingredients). The recipes will make either 12 supersized cakes or 16 regular sized. The flavor combos are bold with many featuring alcohol-- rum raisin,mojito, beer.But the real proof is in the proveribial pudding. So far I have made four of the recipes with mixed results. The red velvet "Defense Defense" was delish, good cocoa flavor and a vivid red color. The Jack Daniels spiked cream cheese frosting definitely enhanced the cupcake. The" Rum and Coke" cupcake was tasty, almost like a sponge cake. The "Wake-Up Call", a chocolate expresso cupcake was a delight. The coffee complimented the chocolate and the texture was nice. The "Serious Coffee Buttercream" made it a mocha explosion. The "Triple Play," a chocolate cupcake with a chocolate ganache was a total disaster. The cupcake had a weird texture, kind of like eating a drying sponge. The flavor was flat despite use of copious amounts of high quality chocolate.The amount of frosting generated bythese recipes is excessive. I found that halving the frosting recipe helped. I did not like the last chapter which relied on boxed cake mixes. No I am not a semi homemade type of girl. I would have preferred the baking tips been presented in all one area rather than scattered throughout the book. Some of them, like the substitutions for cake flour, were difficult to locate.This is a basic book but lots of lfun. The flavors are interestiing and assertive and a good waya to lure the men into the kitchen.

Title: UUUMMM!
Review: I'll admit I haven't actually tried any of the recipes yet, so I can't vouch for whether they work or not. But I love to read cookbooks, and I suppose fantasize about actually cooking something - in other words, I enjoy the idea of cooking more than actually doing it - you know all that cleaning up afterwards really deters me from actually cooking much. But from a pure reading standpoint, I loved this book. The recipes look simple and sound delicious and the photos make your mouth water. I hate when I read a book and it has ingredients that would be difficult or impossible for me to find in the rural area in which I live - because while I'm probably not ever going to actually bake any of these cupcakes, I at least like the idea that I could. I'd recommend this book for anyone who loves to bake, or like me, likes to think about baking. And I think it would make an excellent gift for any man or teen who is already baking, thinking about starting baking or who you'd like to get interested in baking. It is definitely not a girly girl cookbook. So if there is a young man in your life you'd like to introduce to baking, get him this book. You remember the saying "real men don't eat quiche"? Well this book shows real men can bake and eat cupcakes.

Title: Loved it!
Review: I had heard of the Butch Bakery before and thought what a great idea...when I came across the book and it was coming out soon, I pre-ordered it. Had a great surprise and got it about a week or 2 before it originally said. Loved the entire book, from the easy recipes, beautiful photos and the recipes look awesome. Hoping to try them this weekend!

Title: not your everyday cupcakes!
Review: The recipes are very descriptive and easy to work with.The ingredients are seriosly inspiring.Seeing frostings other than buttercream changed my perception about the whole cupcake craze.Mix & match suggestions are a nice touch.This is the only cupcake book I would go back to and I have more than a few!

Review: Was hoping for better recipes than what was offered in book. Not a very exciting book - kind of a dull looking..
