Anyone for cupcakes?

This weekend one of our best friends got married.  A while back they asked if i would make them 100 cupcakes as they didn't want a traditional cake.  It seemed like a nice thing to do for them so i said yes!!!!.  12 hours of baking,rolling,decorating later and that idea really didn't seem such a good one anymore.  Don't get me wrong i loved being able to do something useful for them but given i have only ever made cupcakes once or twice before 100 all in one go was stressful to say the least...  Anyway here's how they turned out.



 And here's a sneaky photo of me and Mr G at the reception.  My smile is one of relief that i managed to pull it off and even had a few compliments on how they looked at tasted.  Alls well that ends well!

  6. That cupcake display looks gorgeous! :) It's so nice to give a truly personal wedding gift and - let's face it - traditional fruit cake just sucks. ;)
