Cake!

Adelaide is suffering a late Spring heatwave (with temperatures hovering between 35-40 all week!) so I haven’t baked anything new and exciting :( It’s just too hot to operate the oven in this weather.

Because I haven’t got any photos of the delicious sticky maple ones I made on Friday (they were all eaten pretty quickly!) here’s a picture of the masterpiece from Friday night. It was my housemate’s birthday and we decided to bake him some cupcakes and a delicious chocolate cake with strawberries and a chocolate fence. A day later and the fence would have collapsed on itself – we had problems even putting it together and it wasn’t very hot!

  1. A great idea for future recipes this. Thank you for sharing it. Have you noticed how so many people appear to be cooking again? I wonder if the lack of funds due to the current climate has something to do with it and we all appear to be cooking again! its great!

  • Cupcake Phenomenon!

    Hi! My name is Monnie and I live in Adelaide, Australia. Thanks for stopping by my baking blog! I love cupcakes because they bring people joy - so they make me happy in turn. I have got everyone hooked on making and eating them and hopefully soon you will be too!

    My cupcakes have won first and second place in 2009, and first place in the 2011 Coonalpyn Show so you're looking at award winning cupcakes ;)

    I have my own dessert catering business, Cupcake Treats, which has been operating since 2009. If you're in Adelaide and want to order anything, contact me through there!

    Please leave a comment on one of the recipes if you use it (and links to photos!) I love to see everyones creations. :)

    xx Monnie
