Lemon-aid and 1001 nights...

Lemon-aid - this is a lemon and white chocolate cheesecake cupcake, and the 'aid' part - they are for the lovely man who helped me solve my 'but I can't upload the software I need onto my new laptop as it hasn't got a CD drive' - he did something like hypnotise it to make it think it has a CD drive...
Here are the cakes...

















1001 nights - these are pale pink rose scented cupcakes, with rose scented icing, sprinkled with crystallised rose petals.  Bit of a girlie-fest, for a friend who said they would be a good idea!  Both these and the lemon-aid ones have been iced with a palette knife in the Hummingbird Bakery stylee.

Birthday mini-cupcakes


These were baked as a birthday gift for a friend. Vanilla cupcakes with yellow vanilla icing, birthday letter candles and some small sugar flowers.

Staycation Mini-Cupcakes







It's 11am, it's coffee time at work - an social tradition of which the days are now numbered in its present daily form. However, one thing is guaranteed, that the number in attendance will increase exponentially when the work 'cake' is included in the invite. The unwritten rule, is that people are welcome to contribute offerings to share to celebrate birthdays, work anniversaries, holidays, retirement, moving on, moving up, pregnancy (announcement and return), and the welcome of new colleagues, or visitors, plus any other excuses that can be thought of to share biscuits, cakes and dodgy produce from foreign climes.

However, these mini-cupcakes were my contribution from our August staycation. The choices were vanilla cupcakes iced with pink icing and appropriate decorative accessories, chocolate cupckes with chocolate icing, and iced fancies which I made on a whim from the surplus of chocolate cake mixture.
