You read correctly. It's a cupcake within a cupcake. ever since i watched INCEPTION, i've been finding as many new ways to show inception as possible. you have to get creative though.=] well here it is a cupcake inside a cupcake.=] hope you enjoy.

***as you can see, my frosting abilities are limited, but i say, "its what's on the inside that counts=]"

Ingredients:
2 cake mix boxes (+eggs,oil, and water)
food coloring of your choice
frosting of your choice
small cookie cutter
cake pan
cupcake pan

Step 1: Bake #1(mini cupcake)

first make one box of the cake mix and add a color.
You can add any color or even make it a chocolate cake inside with vanilla cake on the outside.
after your cake has been baked and cooled for up to 20 minutes get your cookie cutter and cut out the shapes.
if the cake isn't holding too well, cool it in the fridge for another 5 - 10 minutes.
then continue cutting out your shapes.

inception is defined as giving an idea to any individual through dream-time whilst making it seem self generated how does this relate?

uhhh.... no it isn't. it's simply the beginning (starting, commencement....) of something. Don't use movies to teach you what words mean, or you'll come out looking really silly when you try to correct people with a completely incorrect definition :)

i'm simply relating to the movie and the whole concept of a dream within a dream. when i think of inception i think " A DREAM WITHIN A DREAM" that's why it's a cupcake within a cupcake. oh well i thought it was pretty awesome =]

idk, cause i don't think the pictures are two different flavors. but i guess it's supposed to be cake inside a cake.
lilo_k (author) says: Jun 21, 2011. 8:02 PM
yeah they're the same flavor, but you can do whatever you want

"inception" is defined as the beginning or starting point of something.

Jax my friend I agree there is no such thing, and with all of these ideas you must be in heaven. I like the idea of two flavors. I love the visualization of this.
