Who doesn’t love a cupcake? Especially four custom cupcakes that won’t make a dent on your waistline! The Cupcakes! iPhone app (99 cents) is a family-friendly app with a smorgasbord of cupcake batters, icings, toppings and liners to please every member of your entourage. And, since you make four at a time, most family members can be appeased with one round of cupcake baking.
My pièce de résistance starts with a leopard liner filled with chocolate cupcake batter baked to perfection and then topped with peanut butter icing, a little Nutella and crowned with mini-marshmallows. Now that is an eclectic virtual cupcake!
Yes, the Cupcakes! iPhone app has just about every cupcake topping you could dream of, like gummy worms and banana chips accompanied with myriad funky pan liners to match any personality, such as zebra, rainbow and shamrock.
You can either virtually chomp on your cupcake creation with your finger or just save a photo of your masterpiece to share with friends and family later. I wish the iPhone app had an easy share button for social networks, because I would love to use this iPhone app to celebrate special occasions with online friends.
And since these days a gourmet cupcake will set you back around $3.50, 99 cents for four is a bargain!

It's a cool and fun idea for an app. I know people who would love to add this to their app collection. But I wonder, is it really worth $.99? Other than killing some time and indulging my imaginary appetite, I'm not sure why I'd pay for this.
