Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

This year Wei decided to personalise her christmas gifts. Dug out a recipe for pepparkakor biscuits that she "koped" from IKEA last year and made her friends some colourful rice-sprinkled spiced biscuits. Created a mix of other flavours by adding some candy cane mint and chocolate chip too.

See recipe after the break.

Note from Wei: Frankly I found the spices too strong so it was good to mix it up with some chocolate. Or cut the spice, up to you!

Birthday Cupcakes

Running out of ideas what to gift a friend on his/her birthday? Why not send a box of cupcakes? That seems like a good idea to some of our friends. We made their day with some beautiful and yummilicious cupcakes! Check them out in the photos below:

Our colleague's daughter had colourful polka dotted chocolate cuties for her 12th birthday party while Stephanie had hers with her name written on them (it was a surprise delivery!).

Another friend was treated to a dark chocolate cupcakes, our signature now, and vanilla cupcakes with italian meringue buttercream. That buttercream was quite major work but it was soooooo good.

What we made:

• Dark Chocolate Cupcakes, decorated with Dark Chocolate Ganache and colourful Sprinkles
• Dark Chocolate Cupcakes, decorated with Piped Buttercream Lettering 
• Dark Chocolate Cupcakes, decorated with Italian Meringue Buttercream 
• Vanilla Cupcakes, decorated with Italian Meringue Buttercream
