Its been a busy few weeks here at Buttercream and Dreams. It started off with what I shall now term a research trip to sunny Salcombe in Devon. I call it a research trip as it was a good excuse to try all the lovely cake shops that dot the pretty high streets. A favourite visit was Totnes where we spent many an hour wandering up and down the hill looking in every cake shop going. From scones with delicious clotted cream to pretty cupcakes I saw it all (and tasted quite a few!)
Freshly back from our week away I got straight in to Andrew and Laura's wedding cupcakes. I have however decided that last weekend was a little bit hot for baking 200 cupcakes. 28 degrees plus a hot oven all afternoon does not seem the best way to spend an afternoon. However, it was all worth it when the pretty pink and green morsels were ready for transportation to the venue. They were delicious little vanilla cupcakes topped with vanilla buttercream. A selection of sprinkles were then added including white chocolate stars, mini marshmellows and sugar strands. They really did look great and went down a treat with the hungry guests!
Next project is Zoe and Matt's wedding cake which will be a tower of cupcakes topped with a wonderful butterfly and spotty top cake. More details to follow.....
