As if I needed another excuse to indulge in some yummy treats, it's almost Easter! Next week means we're all going to be surrounded by chocolate (probably, if you do this sort of thing) and enjoying a long weekend to do with what we please. I decided to get started early and make some Easter cupcakes, making a total mess of my kitchen as usual.
I followed this recipe for simple vanilla cupcakes, and bought ready made purple icing (lazy I know) to decorate with. Then I added some mini eggs on top and edible silver balls to make the whole thing pretty :)
They turned out so yummy, and they were so super easy to make; I definitely recommend you all give them a try. I'll probably be making another batch this weekend with pink icing and more pretty decorations.
Will you be making any Easter treats for next weekend? Let me know!

Those look so cute. My favourite part of Easter has to be easter nests (aka cornflake cakes with mini eggs).

They look so yummy! I really need to make some cakes this year or at least do something a bit creative as I've neglected being crafty around Easter so this has inspired me! - Tasha
ReplyDeleteThese look so cute and absolutely delicious. I probably won't be making anything for easter as I have made so many cupcakes lately. These are perfect though, a simple recipe and easy enough to decorate.

Ah I love the purple icing!! It looks awesome! Did it taste nice? I don't usually trust ready made icings as the ones I've tried haven't been very good. Last two weekends I've been on a baking spree but I didn't decorate my cake or cookies half as nice as yours!
