Cupcake time!!

Hello cupcake lovers!


Cupcakes, you see them everywhere these days. But did you know that the first recipe about cupcakes was written in 1828 by Eliza Leslie? Cupcakes where served by the tea at genteel tea Parties.
They started as simple cakes, but nowadays you can get them in every size, colour, taste and shape. 



Yes, this really is a dress made of cupcakes! It was made by the girls from DC Cupcakes for the DC fashion week. These two sisters Sophie and Katherine have their own real life serie about their cupcake store in DC. They make the most beatifull creations form paintings till even dresses. 


So after seeing als these beautiful creatations we decided to try it ourselves. We went to the supermarket where they have a lot of handy devices to create lovely cupcakes in a simple way. First we made the cakes, when they were cooled down we where ready with the preparations for the decoration. We used marzipan to make all kinds of shapes with cheerful colours and a chocolate topping simply because we LOVE chocolate. Thanks to the special cupcake package of Anouk we had colourful sprinkels, funny little dolls, flowers and even a professional spatula to make our cupcakes as beautiful as possible. 
To be honest we were quit proud on the results! All those beautifull colours make us happy! And don't forget they are to be eaten! And that is what we did, together with our friends!
So do you want to have a creative and fun activity to do with your friends? Go to the supermarket, choose the flavours you like and start baking! We assure you have a great day!

The Cupcakes girls,
