St Patricks Day 2011

Vienna had to take a plate for a shared afternoon tea at daycare to celebrate St Patricks Day so I whipped up these yummy treats.

Vanilla cupcakes with vanilla frosting, a few green sprinkles and either fruit sticks or green fondant shamrocks (i used a 'club' cutter from a set and pinched in each side with a toothpick).

Yummy and Cute!

Thomas the Tank Engine Cute Food

I made these mini 'Thomas the Tank Engine' inspired train cookies for Hugo's 2nd Birthday. They were yummy butter cookies with blue royal icing. Then I wrote on them with my foodoodler food colouring pens. I made 48 of them for him to take to Montessori to share with his friends on his birthday.


To go with the cookies were 24 chocolate mini cupcakes and 24 vanilla mini cupcakes, again in the Thomas the Tank Engine theme they were in red and blue paper cases and decorated with red and blue sprinkles.

I recently discovered that egg cartons are the perfect free packaging for mini cupcakes! How convenient. They fit perfectly, have lots of height so don't damage the frosting and fit a dozen!
