Tones of Purple Wedding Cupcakes

Wedding cupcakes made to suit the couple's design brief to use lots of varying shades of purple with a scattering of red as an accent. The flavours included mocha (purple embossed fondant and red blossoms), rum & raisin (piped purple frosting with single blossom), blueberry lemon (white frilly piped frosting with blossom arrangement in varying purple shades), banana (lilac piped frosting with 3 white blossoms), sticky date (eggplant purple embossed fondant and rosebuds) and raspberry & white chocolate (dark purple stripes and lilac hand-piped rose).

Pink Ribbon Cupcakes

These are a selection of the cupcakes that were made to sell to raise funds for breast cancer research as part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. All adorned with pink ribbons, the flavours included sticky date, raspberry & white chocolate, choc-mint and cookies & cream. Thank you to all the ladies at our Girl's Night In who purchased cupcakes for the cause!

Broncos Cupcakes

A dozen large vanilla cupcakes for a broncos fan's birthday (note: at least the birthday boy was able to celebrate his day last week with these cupcakes before the broncos were knocked out of the '09 finals on the weekend!). The decorations included hand-piped bronco jerseys and chocolate truffle footballs.

Raspberry & white chocolate mini cupcakes and caramel mud cutting cake for an engagement party with a burgundy and silver heart theme. The heart decorations were painted with silver lustre to give them sparkle.

Pretty Pastel Flower Cupcakes - Stitcher's Dream Day Out

These large cupcakes were commissioned by the lovely Marion from The Quilter's Angel for the annual 'Stitcher's Dream Day Out' held at the Chocolate Cottage Village Green at Highfields. The cupcakes were to provide morning tea for the 300+ women who attended over the 2 days.

So 13 kilos of sugar, almost 3 kilos of white chocolate, 4 dozen eggs and minimal hours of sleep later, the sticky date, chocolate, and raspberry & white chocolate cupcakes were ready to be admired and devoured by hundreds of keen stitchers.

The chocolate cupcakes featured frilly piped frosting and hand-cut flowers, the sticky dates were decorated with embossed fondant over caramel icing, and the raspberry & white chocolate cupcakes featured pastel hand-piped roses.

Note to self: never again attempt 27 dozen cupcakes solo - call for baking and frosting backup!
