It's been almost a month since my last posting!<br /><br />The truth is, I kind of find this hard to do. I'm not entirely sure about what would make someone want to read a blog about baking. Then it struck me! Babies! Everybody loves babies, especially a cute little chubby-cheeked baby with a big smile and the sweetest face you've ever seen!<br /><br />Here's a picture of one of my best clients! We made the cupcakes for her Christening about 4 years ago. She and her parents have been addicted ever since!<br /><br />The cupcakes shown here are our most popular flavour, Ying Yang. This variation is made with chocolate cake and vanilla Swiss meringue butter cream. Goes great with a tall glass of cold milk. It's also my personal favourite, along with strawberry fields, sunshine and lemon drops and cloud 9...who am I kidding I love them all!<br /><br />Anyway, just something fun to look at...I'll be back and blogging like fiend!<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />Dina<br /></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6906790237966074011-7925284364261448474?l=frostingsbydesign.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Frostingshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06601904286816598831noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6906790237966074011.post-11981880365027241022010-01-27T14:43:00.000-08:002010-01-28T19:35:49.883-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BwlMV2qvqO4/S2JTSeYjeVI/AAAAAAAAAB8/0N69duUfO8Y/s1600-h/IMG_0602.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BwlMV2qvqO4/S2JTSeYjeVI/AAAAAAAAAB8/0N69duUfO8Y/s400/IMG_0602.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431995677421042002" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BwlMV2qvqO4/S2JTSFWCWXI/AAAAAAAAAB0/sj70jE11uco/s1600-h/IMG_0594.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BwlMV2qvqO4/S2JTSFWCWXI/AAAAAAAAAB0/sj70jE11uco/s400/IMG_0594.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431995670699596146" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BwlMV2qvqO4/S2JTRqQCvuI/AAAAAAAAABs/Q-cAZbFrY4U/s1600-h/IMG_0597.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BwlMV2qvqO4/S2JTRqQCvuI/AAAAAAAAABs/Q-cAZbFrY4U/s400/IMG_0597.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431995663426698978" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BwlMV2qvqO4/S2JTQc3GTCI/AAAAAAAAABc/D2_Vi4QoG-g/s1600-h/IMG_0592.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BwlMV2qvqO4/S2JTQc3GTCI/AAAAAAAAABc/D2_Vi4QoG-g/s400/IMG_0592.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431995642652544034" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);font-family:verdana;" >How about cupcakes {as party favors}?<br /><br />Traditionally, party favors were edible gifts given to guests as a way of showing gratitude for attending the occasion. </span> <span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);font-family:verdana;" >I think it would be nice to pay homage to an earlier time.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(102, 0, 204); font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" ><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);">For your next event why not send each of your guests home with a delicious treat?
