Blog hopping is my favourite waste of time lately and I especially love seeing what all those creative baking-types are up. I recently stumbled across the oh-so-pretty eat sweet blog and swooned when I saw her jersey caramel chocolate cupcakes. I knew I had to make them so it was off to the shops for a bag of these delicious, so very sweet lollies. I made my cakes vanilla, rather than the original chocolate, although I reckon choc and caramel is always a winning combination.
If you want to see the gorgeous original recipe here it is:

If you want a vanilla cupcake use my recipe and gather some jersey caramels, too: https://thehungrymum.wordpress.com/2012/06/10/just-a-quickie-warm-vanilla-cupcakes-with-chocolate-melted-marshmallows-6-2/
Follow the details for the cupcakes but only half fill the cupcake wrapper with batter. Insert a jersey caramel then cover with batter.
I decorated mine with a blob of double cream, then a jersey caramel cut in half. Why not go the whole hog and use a full jersey?

yum!!
Jersey caramels and cake, ooo yes!
A match made in heaven 🙂
You had me at caramel. 🙂
It just makes everything better, really…
Ain’t that the truth!
Haha, no no, blog hopping is definitely not a waste of time if it inspires you to make something this tasty! This looks fantastic!
Cool – now I shall no longer consider it a waste of time, more like research 🙂
Oh my mouth is watering! I love caramel and can’t wait to try these. Thanks for sharing (although my waistline doesn’t thank you 😉 )
Make them mini size so you can have twice as many!
I love blog hopping too! If I didn’t, I would never have found your blog 🙂
These looks great! I’m so glad that you tried them.
I could easily spend all day online, wandering from blog to blog! Thanks for the inspiration 🙂
@thehungrymum is making me HUNGRY! 🙂
that’s the plan!
I love it!!! Gnam gnam 😀
thanks 🙂
I wanted to put 100 likes. 🙂 I just LOVE your cooking !!
Hehehe! Caramel is just a wonderful thing, isn’t it?
Yummy !
I’ve seen a lot of creative cup cakes in Perth and I can that this one is creative too. If I will try to bake this recipe I will use a colorful cupcake paper with different patterns rather than a plain one.
Let me know if you do try it – they are very yummy!
