Oh boy… I really hope I didn’t hurt anyone! heh. I had a feeling that might be the case… actually bought some new wasabi powder this week, going to make another batch of these tomorrow. And I’ll definitely update the recipe if we find them *too* spicy this time!

I just made these and they are fantastic! The end result, though, makes me think there might in fact be a problem with your wasabi powder. They aren’t *hot* as in, way spicy hot, but you can definitely feel a little bite of wasabi. Mostly they are more aromatic, flavorful, and leave you with a warm sensation. This is with only one tablespoon of fresh wasabi, purchased yesterday.

I have to say the Black Pearl truffle from vosges was probably one of coolest things I’ve ever eaten. So the idea of this cupcake being made in basically the same vein makes me drool.

Want.

Very interesting flavour combination – I don’t know if I am daring enough :P

They’re gorgeous! And wasabi and chocolate is a new one one me, but it makes sense. And good luck! Just voted for you.
