Cupcakes

 A good friend of mine asked me to make some cupcakes for her daughter's birthday so on Friday I made these cakes from Mary Berry's book.
I have to say that although I used the recipe, I used more mixture than Mary suggested in the cupcakes in order to make large ones - she says it makes 12, but I would say it only makes 8 large ones. It would be fine if you had the smaller cases. Also I had to double the quantity of icing in order to have enough to ice them like this. I did put some Asda edible glitter on them, but was rather disappointed as it didn't show up much.
We of course, still did a taste test, and they recieved 9.0 from our family, however what was most important was that the birthday girl liked them, which I hear she did!

  1. Wow! Wow! These cup cakes not only looked amazing, they tasted amazing. ONE BIG SMILE on my daughters face when I put them on a cake stand. Thank you so much Julia, many more orders to come. My family loved them. The different coloured icing looked really pretty on my cake stand and pictures came out great. Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
