Cupcakes

A couple of weeks ago, Sandra, Tiffany and I went to an Easter cupcake decorating class at Milly's in town. This was our Christmas present from Sonia, and proved to be a whole lot of fun.

They provided the cupcakes, the icing, filling for piping into the cupcakes, and two people full of ideas and experience to help us. We were given a demonstration of some basic techniques, and then the idea was to get on with it, and ask plenty of questions. We learnt how to use some very cool icing nozzles to give different effects, as well as colouring and moulding fondant icing.

So, here are the cupcakes:

It was loads of fun, and has inspired us to give this a go with the kids during the school holidays, in the few days before we go camping.

On the topic of camping.... feel free to start praying that we won't we be rained out!
