It's been a while...

I haven't had much time for baking and when i have i've had no time for blogging. So here is a snippet of a delicious recipe i discovered lately :P Butterfly sugar biscuits with white chocolate icing :)

Cupcake Fun

Today has been a very long day and I well deserve a break, hence my desire to bake!

I made a batch of plain cupcakes and decided to have a quick play with my new icing bag from Christmas. The results aren't perfection, but it was fun and now I'm relaxed and happy :D

I found some sugar flower sprinkles to decorate them with and think the effect is wonderful and easy :)

The rocky road to happiness

Today I made time to bake :D

I'm still feeling poorly and a little sorry for myself with wisdom tooth and ear pain, so I decided to spend an hour doing something very terribly not to do with research. It was worth it.



These Rocky Road muffins are delicious. Chocolatey cakey goodness filled with white chocolate chips and mini marshmallow pieces. Absolutely worth an hour off my research!

A bit of sparkle in my life...

I've been a busy bee and a bit under the weather the last week or so, and haven't really had a chance to make or bake anything, so here are some cupcakes I made a while back.



They're my own take on red velvet, because they are more chocolatey and pink! And glittery...

Pink velvet is definitely the way forward, especially considering how yummy these cupcakes were!

Crafty Sunday

I was going to make lemon cup cakes today... but after a 6 hour Australian Open Tennis final, I couldn't be bothered.

Plus I only have one egg left...

Instead, I decided to make myself a nice little case for my kindle, and I'd say it's not bad for about an hours work.



The material was something I had left over from a lovely jersey dress I made myself for graduation, but there wasn't really enough for any big projects.

Instead, I got to make this practical case, with added sparkle!



I definitely should have been reading...

Finally... Time to bake!

So today, after a successful meeting with my MA supervisor, I decided to come home and bake myself a nice treat :)

These delicious looking muffins are chocolate chip cheesecake cupcakes. A bit of a mouthful, and far too many 'c's for everyday speech but YUMMY :D



This is the second time I have made these, from the hummingbird bakery cookbook, and I swear i'm in heaven.

I love chocolate.

I love cheese cake.

I love cake.

Combine them and amazing results happen!!

Look out for more yummy goodies soon!

Coming Soon!

I've decided to write a blog about things I make...

I'm talking cakes, clothes, jewellery, pictures, all things sweet and lovely.

Over the next few days and weeks I'll post about things I've already made,
but I'll also be updating this blog with things as I make them!

I'm especially looking forward to March, when I'm doing a market stall selling cakes and second hand jewellery.

Exciting stuff to happen soon!
