Mini Flapjack Desserts

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Maple Pecan Cupcakes with Buttermilk Pancakes are Adorably Delicious

— January 3, 2014 — Lifestyle
Since flapjacks have a dessert-y air about them, it is only natural that the Maple Pecan Cupcakes with Buttermilk Pancakes would be more appealing than strange. As its name completely gives away, it is a maple-flavored cupcake topped with three fluffy pancakes. Adorably delicious-looking, they are perfected with some pecans.

Baked by Belinda of The Moonblush Baker, who is based in Sydney, Australia, the Maple Pecan Cupcakes with Buttermilk Pancakes is inspired. What makes this recipe particularly special, at least according to Belinda, is the fact that they revolves around American style pancakes, not English ones straight from the bottle. Although, what would take them to the next level is some Nutella and bacon as per Neatorama's suggestion. Of course, that would be a completely different dessert altogether.
Trend Themes
1. Mini Desserts - There is an arising trend towards cute, bite-sized desserts like these mini flapjack desserts.
2. Sweet and Savory Combinations - As proven by Neatorama's suggestion of adding Nutella and bacon to the Maple Pecan Cupcakes with Buttermilk Pancakes recipe, there is a growing trend towards unique flavor pairings in desserts.
3. Revamped Classic Desserts - The Maple Pecan Cupcakes with Buttermilk Pancakes recipe puts a new spin on classic, breakfast flapjacks, making it a trend to update traditional desserts with innovative ingredients.
Industry Implications
1. Bakery - Bakeries can capitalize on the trend of mini desserts by offering bite-sized versions of their classic desserts to customers.
2. Catering - Catering companies can incorporate the sweet and savory flavor pairing trend into their dessert menus to offer unique and memorable dishes to clients.
3. Food Blogging - Food bloggers can capitalize on the revamped classic dessert trend by creating and sharing recipes that update traditional desserts with innovative and unique ingredients.
