Shanghai Cupcakes from Les Madeleines

Shanghai (Green Tea & Jasmine) Cupcakes

I snapped a pix of these cool-looking cupcakes with my trusty cell phone. They’re the Shanghai Cupcakes from Les Madeleines. I love how Romina has chosen to pipe the frosting. By the way, I had a chance to pick up her takeout menu and it had a huge list of cupcake flavors. And listen to this: All of Les Madeleines cupcake flavors and their names are inspired by the chef’s travels. Here’s the cupcake flavor list:
