Yesterday was my newborn's full month celebration. Got it brought forward because the actual day falls on a weekday.
Despite being in confinement which i'm supposed to be fully rested on bed most of the time, i 'keh kiang' - stubbornly insisted on baking some cupcakes to liften up the normal full month party mood :P
Below are some of the cupcakes i made the day before. It was a real hard work. Back breaking one in fact but i think it's pretty worth it. Let's hope that a day's hard and back breaking work will not take a toll on my future's health as what my confinement nanny warned me before i started my 'venture'. In all, i made 60 of them and total hours spent including baking and cooling time -> 3.5 hours! Really not used to decorating / piping yet :P
My 2nd attempt on cupcakes, my first attempt on playing with colour on the icing. What's my cupcakes compare to the professional ones yeah? Anyway..
My cupcakes.. :)
With flash 
Without flashDidn't have the time to really take nice shots because the guests were 'pouring' in by the time i laid these cupcakes out. So, just anyhow snap snap snap 2-3 of it :D
Also realised the swirling design uses an awful lot of cream, goodness me.. so after i swirled 3, i decided to stop doing that design thinking that no one will wanna eat a cupcake with so much cream but boy, was i wrong or what! Lol.
I've got a couple of gfs who love the frosting so much that they suggested next time i should just dump the whole cream on the cakes and also a few uncles and aunties who specially choose the ones with the most cream on it :D
*whack*whack* back bone. Guess it's time to rest..
ps : the swirling design looks like cowdung, no? :PpppPPppppP
pps : maybe it's just me and my lousy piping skills lah yeah? Hehe..
