Easter hols, finally!

Got invited to a potluck party and decided to make some cupcakes (again!) but it's so fun trying to find new ways to decorate them each time. So this time I decided to use royal icing with a baby blue food colouring paste to just give it some colour instead of plain white. Stamped stars and drew smiley faces on them (:



If you were wondering what the white spots are, its cornflour, so the icing doesnt stick when i'm kneading it.
Pretty vanilla cupcakes (:
Making the frosting : Cream cheese, Butter, Nutella, more Nutella (: Made the consistency of the frosting much smoother compared to last time. Tweaked the recipe a little bit.
Smooth frosting. Was really yum too!
After filling the cupcakes with dark chocolate, they were ready to be frosted and decorated (my favourite part!)


Added a silver glitter to the stars but can barely see it really.

Boxed and ready to be brought to the party! (:

Hope everyone likes them!! (: Made some extras which are in my fridge now. Snacks for the coming days! (:

P/S: Cupcakes make me very happy! Do they make you happy? (:
