I like cupcakes.

The cupcake was as therapeutic as an hour with my counselor. Simile

The smell of the cupcake was my grandmother herself- sitting in the kitchen with me talking and laughing as she taught me how to bake and how to live. Metaphor and Symbol

I knew that I would die if I didn’t get one of those decadent cupcakes. Hyperbole

Personification, Allusion, Oxymoron The cupcake sang to me like a siren with its devilish goodness. Personification, Allusion, Oxymoron

The long awaited ding of the timer signaled it was finally cupcake time! Onomatopoeia
