Sunday Sunday

Hi All
What a lovely Sunday it is today, it's warm and the sun is shining, in my back garden at least. I thought I share some of my latest cupcake creations, but unfortunately I'm unable to do this as the batteries in my camera has died, so I cannot upload any pic's, and I don't have any spares urgh! Did try the old trick of rubbing them between the palm's of my hands, but that didn't work. Oh well, at least the sun is shining eh?
Bye for now

Passion of the C Pt 3

Hi All

Returned back to the 9-5 today after the Easter over indulgence, to be honest I done my excess chocolate egg consumption at the beginning of March and couldn't stomach doing it again lol! So I got back on my CRUSADE OF THE CARROT CAKE!! (The last five words are to be read in the tone of the voice over man on the X Factor). Well I scummed to using the oil, took out the ginger, added more dark brown soft sugar and kept everything the else the same. I used a cream cheese icing for the top and the middle ( I ran out of the passion fruit curd, okay I ate it!). I passed slices over to my independent judging panel, the verdict came back as having a soft texture, full of flavour, and nice colour. It was like the carrot cakes of days gone by. I am very happy I have finally mastered THE CARROT CAKE! (Voice over man again).




I Think I will put the kettle on and enjoy a slice of cake.

Bye for now.
