The After Eight cupcakes were pretty simple, a yummy chocolate recipe with peppermint flavouring and stuffed with After Eight mints! You'll see from my photo's that there's only two left (they were swiped pretty much as soon as they came out the oven!) so I'd say those were a pretty big hit! I put some peppermint flavouring in the icing too.
The Jammie Dodger cupcakes were me indulging my imagination and seeing if I really could create ANY flavour I wanted, and yes, they worked! Although next time I make them I'll have to put loads more jam in the middle and use Raspberry/Strawberry flavouring rather than the glamorous Chambord suggested by my lovely sister. The flavour wasnt quite intense enough for me!
Im already planning some new flavours to try including Nutella & Peanut butter....(maybe together?! *daydreams*) but for the rest of this week I'll be concentrating on making the Cupcakes for Photo Camp next weekend and also a suprise baked item too!
FYI - Photo Camp is an awesome Photography weekend course created by the lovely Jo Rutherford in order to inspire, encourage and develop budding photographers! Intrigued? Check out Jo's Blog - jorutherfordphotography.blogspot.com
That's all for now! Hope you enjoy the pics! :)
