Cool Cupcakes

What fun!  The kids loved playing with the icing - it was just like playdough afterall!  We (the children) decorated lovely cupcakes to take home for our dads and significant men in our lives to celebrate Fathers Day. 

I was quite surprised with how well they did, and really didn't need much help at all!  Check out the photo album here.

Cupcake Decorating Night

Wow - we had so much fun labouring over these little beauties for a couple of hours!

Emma came and showed us the basic tricks of the trade to get started and she was so helpful!  Even learning little things like how high your cupcake should rise in it's case while cooking makes all the difference to the icing.

We experimented with a butter cream icing, a ganache icing and a cream cheese icing as the bases under our top layer of fondant icing.  They were yum!  If you would like the icing recipes, download them here.

We were amazed at the creativity that was evident in everyone's cupcakes.  They looked really cool!  A HUGE thanks to Emma for a really fun night!  (See the album for more photos.)

Danika was born on the 27th June, 2011.
