It's been quite a while since I've posted and several people have been reminding me of this recently. Don't fret though fellow junkers, I haven't committed to a new healthy regime since the new year. If anything I've been eating out a considerable amount over the last few weeks and I'm sure those who have seen me have noticed a fuller rounder figure lately.
On to the important stuff, last weekend I enjoyed a casual dinner party hosted at my cousin's. We were all invited to prepare a dish for the occasion and as well as cooking a Carbonara I brought along a selection of muppet cup cakes that I purchased. I'd like to highlight that I haven't been asked to plug the site in any way nor do I expect any freebies in return. However, more information can be found at There For The Baking. If they do require a guinea pig, I am always available at short notice.
Anyway, that's enough plugging. Below is a an image of the cup cakes purchased, I'd opted for the muppets themed cup cakes over the more traditional looking cup cakes. It was a big hit with all the "big" kids including myself. Although they were heavy on icing, surprisingly they didn't taste sickly at all. The icing wasn't overly sweet and had a pleasant buttery texture to it. The cake themselves were still very soft despite being made three days earlier.
Overall they were a nice touch to a pleasant dinner and were a big hit. After all cup cakes have been the "in" thing recently. Move over doughnuts, they're for fat police officers.
The important question now is, what to order next time?
