Chocolate Gingerbread Cupcakes with White Chocolate Buttercream

It's almost 1 month before x-mas and everyone is getting in the holiday spirit. That includes gingerbread everything including cookies, lattes and of course cupcakes! The holidays wouldn't be complete without it.  I made these chocolate gingerbread cupcakes with Soma Chocolatier cocoa powder and European butter, and topped it with white chocolate buttercream and a cute little shimmery gingerbread man made out of fondant. I thought it would be more artistic to not put faces on these little fellas.
