The first were some Christmas cupcakes. I used he hummingbird recipe that I have mentioned in previous blogs, both vanilla and chocolate. Simple buttercream on top (although if I'd not known beforehand I certainly proved the point that making buttercream in 39 degree temperatures isn't a great idea).
I ordered some cupcake toppers from Baking Pleasures and that was that.
The second item I made was a Christmas cake. My mum had made the cake already, I just competed the decoration. Normally you would cover the cake in Marzipan and then rolled fondant but on this occasion I just used the fondant. A few simple decorations using mould, cutters and some paste food colouring and the job was done in an hour or so.
Merry Christmas!!!
