Cornish Themed Cakes

Here are the Cornish themed cupcakes I managed to whip up for St Pirans day.

They were vanilla cupcakes topped with chocolate chip cookie frosting. The Cornish flags and little pasties were made from modelling paste, so everything was edible.
Enjoy!

 

 

 

Happy St. Piran's Day and a Birthday Cake

It's St. Piran's Day here in Cornwall! Like we need an excuse to eat a pasty!
For those that don't know St. Piran is the Patron Saint for tin miners, after - it is said that he rediscovered smelting.

I had planed on making some St. Piran themed cakes but haven't had chance yet. So in true Blue Peter fashion heres some cakes I made earlier.

This cake was for a teenage girls birthday. It was a vanilla and chocolate layer cake with cookies and cream filling.

 

These cupcakes were for another birthday party. I made chocolate cupcakes topped with vanilla buttercream covered with strawberry curls, and vanilla cupcakes with fondant toppers.

Lastly I was asked to make some cupcakes for a local fundraiser, they were raising money for St Lukes Hospice.
