Thirtieth Birthday Cupcakes

Author: Angel

Beagle Momma turned thirty on April 27th and threw a “Champagne and Cupcakes” party at her house to celebrate!

Her cupcake assortment included Earl Grey, Margarita, Strawberry Cheesecake and vanilla cupcakes!

Earl Grey cupcakes

The Earl Grey cupcakes are infused with Earl Grey tea leaves, topped with a lemony Earl Grey butter icing. I decorated them with a piped dark chocolate “30″.

The Margarita cupcakes are baked with lime juice and tequila, topped with a bright green lime and tequila butter icing, decorated with a half-slice of lime and a sprinkle of sea salt.

The vanilla cupcakes are topped with a fluffy white vanilla butter icing and decorated with a piped dark chocolate “30″.

The strawberry cheesecake cupcakes have a whole strawberry and a sweetened cream cheese secret centre and are topped with cream cheese icing. These were also decorated with a piped dark chocolate “30″.

I’ll bet you’re going to wish you went to school with Shamala’s daughter! This cupcake assortment was sent to her classmates to celebrate her birthday! These aren’t the best photographs unfortunately… I had a dreadful week and I photographed these with my cellphone just before I delivered them.

Some of her order was packaged in clear plastic boxes and tied with a ribbon…

And the following assortment was packaged in a pink paper cup with white dots on with a clear plastic dome fitted to it! It looks so cute!

“Tache Bash” Cupcakes

Author: Angel

Have you ever heard of a “Tache Bash”? I hadn’t, not until Michelle emailed me after finding me on Facebook, and told me she was arranging a “tache bash” for her husband’s birthday party.

A “tache bash” is a moustache-themed party!

If you’ve spent any time browsing sites like Pinterest or Tumblr, you’ll know that moustaches are far more than just facial hair these days! Tattoos, photo booth props, cookies, jewellery… you name it!

Michelle wanted a selection of sugarpaste moustaches to top a selection of four different cupcakes, and she wanted them wacky and colourful!

What do you think?

 

Michelle ordered chocolate chip cupcakes with chocolate butter icing, white chocolate chip cupcakes with Bar One ganache, chocolate and vanilla marble cupcakes with chocolate butter icing, and Snickers caramel cheesecake cupcakes with cream cheese icing!

Calling All Beta Testers!

Author: Angel

This week’s inspiration is… well… nothing really, I just have a hankering to try a few new recipes!

These recipes will be ready for collection next week and the week after.

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

The terms of beta testing are as follows:

  • If you want to try one of these recipes, there’s a small price to cover the cost of the ingredients, and each one is individually priced.
  • Only one batch of each recipe is available, so its first-commented-first-served. You must leave a comment on this post and tell me which one you would like to try.
  • I will then email you further details- an invoice, my EFT details, a collection date and my address and directions.
  • If you have had beta-test order in the last month then I am afraid you will have to give someone else a turn to try something.
  • You can only opt to test one of these recipes.
  • Your order will have to be collected from me in Midrand.
  • Biscuits can wait for collection, but cakes, cheesecakes and cupcakes need to be collected the day they are baked, or a day later at most.
  • After you’ve sampled your beta test order- you must email me, write a blog post, or leave a comment and tell me what you thought- this is imperative as this is the whole point behind the beta-testing!

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

So here’s the list of recipes I am going to be attempting:

  • New York Cheesecake (one) – R150
  • Espresso Streussel Cake (one) – R100
  • Quinoa Almond Cake with Rose Petal Preserve – gluten free (one) – R100
  • Boston Cream Pie (one) – R80
