Cupcake Sunday

I decided last week that I would make cupcakes to accompany the cards I was planning to give out at work. I was inspired by this picture.


Now of course, I never run to a plan, so mine look similar. But not the same.

Enjoy the photos of my culinary creativity!



ICING/FROSTING
Best recipe for white icing?
3-4 cups icing sugar
1/2 cup soft butter
Little milk to get the consistency you desire
Beat together - don't mix
Makes it marshmallow-y



Add half a cherry to the top & there you have it! A very festive cupcake.

Just as a bonus for making it this far - a picture of me with a cupcake mouth.

I felt a little like a 1950's housewife. I had the music playing (not sure they had laptops in those days though), layers of clothes, a frilly top & I was icing cupcakes... just imagine!


Hope you're all having a fabulous Sunday & are looking forward to the Christmas/Holiday break.

They look so so so yummy!!! I bet they went down well at work. When I bake I like to play old 50s or 60s music too!
