Cupcakes for Teachers' Day

Teachers' Day was almost two weeks ago, on 1st Sept. A few days after that, I went away on holiday. Hence, the delay in posting this. I made chocolate cupcakes with chocolate buttercream frosting for my older son's teachers. I packed them individually. There were only five of them and I already found it such a hassle to put them in the small cupcake box and to tie the ribbons round them. I don't know how Sister No.1 did FIFTY of them by herself.


For my younger son's teachers, I made carrot cupcakes with orange cream cheese frosting. I kept them simple this time, without fondant or wordings. I included a picture of the cake box here, stuck with stickers that I got from the local supermarket :-)

Lebaran Cupakes 2

As mentioned in my previous post, the same friend ordered another 2 boxes of Lebaran Cupcakes plus 25 minis for last Friday. These are chocolate and vanilla cupcakes with vanilla buttercream frosting. I kept the design for these Lebaran Cupcakes the same as the previous batch (Lazy to do something different. Lazy is the keyword here. My son chided me for not checking my Cupcake email for potential orders. He said I could have had tonnes of orders but but but..... Hee Hee...)

Anyway, here's the two boxes..taken with my little Point-n-Shoot. Close-up of one box

Lebaran Cupcakes...

As you know, Idul Fitri is literally round-the-corner and many folks are frantically searching for last minute Lebaran gifts and packages...and my dear 'ole friend W is no different. She wasn't sure if she should get me to bake as my spine was still acting-up the last time I met up with her. I assured her I was better... She had ordered 3 boxes of a dozen each..... the flavours were a mix of lemon cupcakes with lemon buttercream, vanilla and chocolate cupcakes with vanilla buttercream - all picked up yesterday.

She wants another 2 dozen + 1 batch of minis for Friday.... will post that later.
