Christmas Giant Cupcake

Here is my Christmas giant cupcake creation. Not for anyone other than us :o)

Started off with a giant cupcake trimmed:


I put buttercream in the middle of the 2 layers and then covered the rest in buttercream:


I then surrounded the bottom with chocolate fingers and secured it with some ribbon, it needed a box and a half worth of chocolate fingers.


I then piped the buttercream using my Wilton 1M nozzle, used yellow smarties, some dr oetker soft pearls and a giant chocolate star to decorate :o)


This should satisfy my craving for cake :o)

Mum's birthday cake - Giant Cupcake

 I am soooo pleased with how this turned out. My mum really liked it too

My first ever giant cupcake

This was the cake before I put it in the oven:

I think the key thing with this was to cook it low and slow. 

Lemon butterfly cupcakes

1st ever batch of lemon butterfly cupcakes. They were delicious! 

Chocolate cupcakes and Chocolate Herman cake

A busy few baking days here.
Firstly I made some chocolate cupcakes with rich chocolate buttercream and giant cadbury's chocolate buttons on top.

This was me doing my good wifely duty and baking these for my fiance's lunchbox this week. 

My cakes always go down well with him.  

Then I made a chocolate herman cake. My office is going to be one happy office tomorrow I'm sure as most of this is going in tomorrow: 

Before it went into the oven: 

 Fresh from the oven:

 Fresh out of the tin:

 Close up of the nuts and chocolate chips

It tastes very much like chocolate brownie and is very nice!!
