Orange Birthday Cupcakes


What a beautiful sunny day!

I made some orange birthday cupcakes this morning, the sponge and buttercream both have freshly squeezed orange juice and zest in them.

They smell really fresh and zingy.

Even in this hot weather, do not store your cupcakes in the fridge, as the cake will go stale.  Keep them in the coolest place you can find, garage, shed or a room in the shade.

Sea Themed Birthday Cupcakes

Happy Birthday to Mia who is having a Swimming Party today.

I made some Sea Themed Vanilla Cupcakes.

They were decorated with fondant crabs, fish, starfish, coral, shells, seaweed, glitter, pearls, jelly sweet fish and pink prawns.

Lavender Cupcakes


I picked some lavender this morning and made some gorgeous Lavender Cupcakes.

You can either place some lavender inside a jar of caster sugar and let it infuse over time and then use that in your baking, or finely chop it and add to your cake mixture.

I don't flavour the buttercream, keep it simply vanilla and add a fresh sprig of lavender on the top.


Keeping the lavender theme, I visited Long Barn in Alresford today, they are growers and distillers of Lavender.  www.longbarn.co.uk

They sell lovely toiletries, homewares and plants in a beautiful oak framed barn, but the best secret is Sally hidden upstairs who does a variety of treatments using their products.  I can definitely recommend her top to toe treament; facial and massage. www.sallycurson.co.uk
