So Christmas is nearly here....just where has 2009 gone? Our business GENI is growing well since it's launch in April. One thing Chris and I both realise is that with such busy lives, you need a hobby to be able to switch off from your work life....and my hobby, well that's cupcakes!
I've made some gorgeous winter warming cakes this year. My favourites being Rum & Raisin, Ginger, Chocolate & Cinnamon and my feature cupcake - the Christmas Tree Cupcake!
It is so so easy to do in 8 simple steps:
1: Colour some sugar paste fondant with your preferred colour
2: Roll out to 0.5cm thickness
3: Cut out 2 large stars, 2 medium stars and 1 small star
4: Leave to dry
5: Stack on top of each other, each star offset against the other. Dab a little sherry in the middle of the star to help it stick.
6: Roll a little glittery ball of fondant for the top of the tree and stick on the top star with some sherry.
7: Sprinkle with edible glitter and leave to dry
8: Pop on top of your cupcake - voila!
I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a very Happy New Year.
Heather
