Wedding Cupcakes

My friend Clare got married earlier this summer, and instead of the usual wedding cake, she had her friends bake cupcakes!  I thought it was such a fun idea to get everyone involved and save a little money.  Plus, the cupcakes tasted way better than your usual wedding cake!  I was put in charge of finding the recipes, as well as cooking some of the cupcakes.  I went for two of my favorite (and relatively fool-proof) cupcakes: Coconut Cupcakes with Dulce de Leche Frosting and Chocolate Cupcakes with Vanilla Buttercream.  Although I wasn't responsible for the gorgeous display, I wanted to share it since it was so pretty!
