Food Porn Friday: Cupcake Camp in Paris Edition

This year, Halloween is *not* my favorite activity involving baking, meeting up with people, and having fun.  No, this year, on the 2nd of October, the coolest party in Paris will be happening.  And it is for a really good cause.

It's Cupcake Camp time in Paris, baby!

Cupcake Camp is a time for people to come together, share their various levels of love for the mighty, versatile cake, share tips, and eat the darn things.  Oh, and proceeds go to the Make-a-Wish foundation.  What could be sweeter?

Amateurs and professionals alike will be attending.  There will be competitions, such as The Most Parisian Cupcake (oh la la!), the Most Exotic Flavor, Autumn Theme Cupcake, and Your Dream Come True Cupcake.  It promises to be a lot of darn fun.

So in order to celebrate, I give you some of the cupcake creations of bakers here in Paris.  You can read my review of cupcake stores here.

I hope you all will consider joining the hard working Cupcake Camp crew for a good time on October 2.   Even better, they've recently teamed up with Colunching to sell a VIP pack for the big day.  For just 12,50 euros, you get an empty cupcake box, 4 tickets to pick out 4 delicious cupcakes among the hundreds of tantalizing options, and a raffle ticket for a chance to win some really nifty prizes.  Who wouldn't wanna be a VIP?

Go check out their website for more details on how to participate, contribute cupcakes, and get involved in the contests.
