Apologies for the delays in choosing and announcing the winner, but thank you to everyone who entered! I have been super busy working lots at my part time job (13 1/2 hour shifts anyone?) and also searching for proper jobs and stuff.
I did have time however to make these cupcakes for my Auntie's birthday, they look rather professional don't you think? I am getting the piping technique just right! I have got a few lovely days off work, so my plans for this week include:
- Going to Harrogate with my parents and grandparents to visit Betty's Tea Rooms!
- Picking blackberries to make into jam and ice cream.
- Visiting a farmer's market where Valentine Warner is making an appearance.
- Drinking tea from my new tea set. I loooove it! It looks even better in real life too, I shall probably take some photos of it soon.
I love Betty's. Jealous now! Still, I've got some of their afternoon darjeeling tea at the moment, so I'll imagine I'm there instead...
ReplyDeleteThe cupcakes look fantastic. Good work!
y-u-m! They look delicious!
ReplyDeleteWhere do you get your piping bags from? I've been meaning to buy one for ages.
Do you use a piping bag? I've never managed to do icing right, but it's probably because I don't have a piping bag!!
ReplyDeleteThose cupcakes look absolutely perfect and delicious!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely tea set! I've been eyeing out some sets for myself...
ReplyDeleteAnd good job on the piping! I had my fist experience piping a couple months ago and is was just a little short of a disaster.....but your cupcakes look absolutely scrumptious!!!!
