{My "Sunflower" Cupcakes}
We invited Calvin's secondary school friends over for a gathering: to pass them our "red bomb" or should it be "black bomb" (haha); and to thank them for the mixer. So, I thought it'd be good if I could prepare some food using the mixer as a gesture of appreciation.
With Yuxiang's recipe, tips and encouragement, I decided to give the Billy's [Eric's] Vanilla, Vanilla Cupcakes a shot. [Esther, next up will be the mini min cheesecakes that you dedicated to me.. hehe]
I've always loved the pretty, cheery look that cupcakes exude. But, friends who know me will know that I don't eat cakes. The only kind of cakes that I eat are chiffon cakes [pandan cake is the best!]... at best, non-creamy cakes. So, I cracked my head a bit to think about how I should decorate my cupcakes. Cos I definitely want to eat my own cupcakes... I found the chocolate that I used for fondue and I decided that is it! Chocolate toppings for my cupcakes! There you go... My 1st attempt at baking (alone!).
Made some mistakes and learnt from them... Practice makes perfect. (^__*)
