Stripey Cupcakes

Thursday, 17 September 2009

Her are some cute stipey cupcakes I made for a girls 6th birthday. Well according to the order it was her 6th birthday but when I delivered them the girl came to the door covered in badges which said 'I am 5!' So unless I came a day early I think my order instructions were wrong. Luckily I hadn't used the '6' theme too much!    Now you'll notice the slightly different style of cup cake wrapper. These look nice but they aren't that practical - firstly there's more volume of cake required as they are taller, so it's the wrong ratio of icing-to-cake, and secondly they get really greasy as they bake so you have to put them in another one to present them which of course doubles the amount you need and they are more expensive. So a thumbs down from me.
