Billions of biscuits!!

Well, 200 glittery pinky ones, made for today's Wedding Fayre at The Vineyard hotel.

50th Birthday Cupcakes

Here are a few of the pretty 50th Birthday Cupcakes I made this morning

I'm now preparing for tomorrow's Cupcake Class.

Cupcakes Class at Treetops

Oh what messy, dusty, buttery, twinkly fun we had this morning!

After making trayfuls of Cupcakes we mastered the art of buttercream icing at which point the kitchen disappeared under a fog of 2kg of icing sugar!

We discussed cases, nozzles, icings, ingredients, colourings, flavourings, sprinkles and glitter whilst mastering the art of 'swirling'!

The end of the morning was spent with regal icing making some lovely flowers, butterfly and love heart decorations to adorn the cupcakes.

The results were brilliant as you can see from the boxes of Cupcakes above.

Everyone left with a recipe and information booklet full of top tips. Good luck with your baking everyone and please remember to email me some photographs of your work!
