I love some bitter to offset the sweetness, like coffee. Or fruit and chocolate is always good, and penutbutter, oh and marshmellow. Damn it, now I need chocolate!

At DH’s work Christmas party they had a Chocolate Fountain and the things I liked to dip best were: strawberries, bananas, pound cake, angel food cake, those little wafer sandwich cookies(you know the ones that have diamonds imprinted on the wafers and come in chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla), pretzels, pineapple(which I thought would be terrible but was delish!)
Also nilla wafers, oreos, ice cream, peanut butter, nuts, marshmallows, caramels.

I have a friend that loves chocolate and cheese. And I’m not talking cream cheese. Sharp cheddar, fancy pants gourmet cheese. Stuff like that. She also likes chocolate frosting and doritos. To each his own I guess.

KAMAILE, chocolate and cheddar? oh wow. Strangely I could see that… sweet and savory you know? Thanks for commenting! :)
Comment by CB— May 10, 2008 #
I’ve heard of everything paired with chocolate, but if this is for Cupcake Hero, I’m not telling my chocolate pairing! :) Here are some other pairings I like with chocolate though: pretzels, cherries, hazelnut, caramel, coffee…alright, the list can go on and on and on. Cheese is a really interesting idea though–I’ve heard of that!

TANYA, uh… Cupcake Hero? What’s that? I have no idea what you are talking about. ;)

Pears. Yum.
Comment by lemontartlet— May 11, 2008 #
Hmmm… some off-kilter suggestions:
1. Dried chili pepper
3. Cashew Butter
4. Plantains
Can’t wait to see what this is all about… :-)
Comment by Julia— May 11, 2008 #

I’m late but you know I will say wine. Duh. :)
Comment by mrsabybaby— May 12, 2008 #
Chillies – Ancho / Chipotle. Like Mole but in cake form. (I did chipotle last week, went really well!)
Fennell
Mint (Maybe too classic)
Bacon. (So delicious)
Chestnut
These are all on my list of To Dos for this year :) I’ve left off the two I’m doing for CH though!
Comment by Brina— May 12, 2008 #
MRSABYBABY, gasp wine? but you don’t like wine? LMAO
BRINA, bacon? That’s definitely quirky but I am told it does taste good. LOL @ CH comment. fine be that way…
Comment by CB— May 12, 2008 #
Oh! Wasabi! Chocolate Wasabi was one of my favourites!
I really recommend the Vosges Bacon Bars – I was skeptical of ChocoBacon, but they changed my outlook /nod.
Comment by Brina— May 12, 2008 #
BRINA, ooohhh wasabi. I could totally dig that but my wussy husband wouldn’t! LOL. I’ll have to see about finding some vosges bacon bars! Thanks for all the recs ;)

CARAMEL
end of story.
Well, not really. But, seriously, why did you bother to ask when one combo is WAY obvious!?
Comment by bombshellwithin— May 12, 2008 #
BOMBSHELL, oh no doubt thats the BEST.COMBO.EVER but I am looking for a new undiscovered taste ;)

Beautiful cupcakes. I love your Mother’s Day message too. I’ve yet to find any gal that has a perfect relationship with her mother, myself included, but oh…I can’t even fathom what it’d be like to lose her. Now that I’m older, it seems I appreciate her a lot more than I used to :).
Comment by Sophie A.— May 13, 2008 #
SOPHIE, thankyou! I definitely think mothers and daughters have their stressful times but I still consider myself lucky to have a mom like you said. Up and downs aside… she’s still my mom.

I like vanilla with Chocolate. :O)
Bananas are great in chocolate…
But i would have to say that strawberry and raspberry are my fav’s with chocolate!
