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? (:

Nutella cupcakes.

Nutella Cream Cheese Frosting on Vanilla and Chocolate cupcake. Didn't have any recipe for the icing. Just had an idea to make Nutella icing since I'm a Nutella-addict (: Turned out pretty ok but I feel I should've added MORE Nutella. A little more never hurts anyone right?

First time making decorations using Royal Icing as well. There you go, my semi-retarded butterfly. Gotta practise more so it'll turn out better (:

Adult Psych last day tomorrow, which means there's an assessment. Hope I'll do ok. Can't believe 3 weeks just flew by like that. Halls are kinda quiet now since most students have already gone home/holidays for the Easter break. Medical student life - 5 weeks holiday becoming a 1 week break. Would've been a couple of days initially if not for the royal wedding. Thank you Prince William and Kate Middleton. Ah well. Better than nothing I suppose (:
