Cupcakes

So this week I was going to try tiramisu but Rob didn't get too thrilled about that and I really wanted to try something that could be shared easily because Rob and I haven't been able to eat a whole cake by ourselves and it never lasts more than a few days. Instead, I decided to make some chocolate cupcakes (recipe here) with a vanilla cream cheese frosting (recipe here), they are very yummy! I can share them with work, too.


The cake is like a very light brownie and the frosting is rich and creamy. I also attempted to make homemade cupcake liners with baking papers, they seemed to work well and gives the cake a very organic feeling. The colours also look great on my china!

I'm also getting a hang of how to photograph them so they look a bit more appetizing.
