Birthday Cupcakes!

Comments (3) | Sunday, April 20, 2008

It was my birthday on the weekend (today is the actual day).

I made these for a dinner I had with my friends as it is essential to have a birthday cake!!

It's my first attempt ever with fondant and royal icing, luckily mum was on board to show me how!

Cupcake mix is the same as I used in the easter cupcakes!

Inspired by Hello Naomi! Thanks Naomi!

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Comments (2) | Tuesday, April 8, 2008

What do you do with excess easter eggs?? Well I thought I better not eat myself sick, so I though I'd share the love and make them into chocolate chip cookies! These are the best choc chip cookies I've made at home. I love the coconut taste that comes through with the dessicated coconut too... mmmm =)
