Boxed Cupcakes

I'm not a good cake maker in real life. When my children were small I amused them by hurling some sponges I'd made down the garden like frizbies! They were too hard for us to eat, they bounced on the grass and remained there for days because even the birds refused to eat them.
Now I make smaller cakes. Smaller cakes = smaller disasters. I tried some new cream and made loads. I filled my boxes and they started to look ok to me.



Last night I put them on Etsy and they were sold within 15 minutes! I'm a happy bunny and shall stick to my motto 'Make It Small'!
I hope you're enjoying the weekend.

    looks like your cupcakes sold like hotcakes! I think they look delicious Gill! I decorated cakes for a couple of years..these look as good as anything I made..and they HAVE to be much harder being so small! Great job, as always Gill!Have a nice week. Christel
