i like cooking & baking, but i couldnt be a chef, far too much stress, like doing stuff at my own pace.
made a victoria snadwich cupcake today after reading this thread.
Sponge with jam in the middle & buttercream on top, decorated with strawberries.
Looks ok i think
Then i supersized it
For size comparison, me...
First attempt at the giant cupcake, and first attempt at using an icing bag
Cant wait to eat it!

I think the key is getting the icing thick enough to pipe

I'm not much of a chef, but I can fry a beautiful steak.
Not hard though

So my sis had a party and asked me to do something special. I thought about doing the victoria sandwich with red white and blue icing.
Nahhh, went all out and im dead chuffed with the end result. Ended up making a choc cake with caramel bits, gooey caramel centre.

It was pretty tasty!
Dead chuffed with it, though i may tweek the ingredients a bit next time, could do with a few shots of coffee i think.

I used the spare mixture to make six cupcakes
Mocha choca caramel, i like it!
As you can see by pics it took 5 bags of smarties to get enough red & blues! Got lots of smarties now though!
Might make corned beef pie for tea
