Angels or Angles?

As I previously mentioned, my first batch of cupcakes were inspired by Verity (the Kitchen Aid), the first creation was some cupcakes for Darrens' work.

Lemon and Chocolate!


This was my first attempt at piping, it gets better, I hope :) So these had a warm welcome and it was the start of many great new experiments to come....


I decided to try something a little more daring... Marzipan "craft" and I say "craft" in the most generous sense of the word! I made an orange and spice recipe, the sponge was lovely and wonderfully Christmassy! The decorations, had a lot to be left to the imagination! 

I made, well blobs with a Christmas hat on with equally dodgy piping! I loved them and they looked cute but I still had no idea what they were, and after a lot giggling Darren and I set to making them a little more recognisable!  






So here we have angels or angles, I really never know what the right spelling is!
They all look slightly drunk and have random black boots and look like they stand as much chance of becoming airborne as I do, BUT! They tasted great! It was time for my ward to get a taste of these little beauties! 


And so the tradition has continued, each week a new batch gets made and they rotate between our jobs so hopefully, I don't seem like too much of a feeder. The NHS it would seem is now powered by cupcakes! The world is a great place! Nobody else needs a cup of tea and a cupcake more than a nurse! I am now known as 'the muffin maker' which I love and we all still have a giggle about :)
