Happy Halloween my lovely ones!!

Halloween has finally arrived and so had the day of my first order :D

I stuck to my original plan and made vanilla cupcakes, chocolate cupcakes and pumpkin cupcakes.

I'm soooo happy to have had the opportunity to make these and actually get some money out of it. But the smile they put on people's faces while eating them is still the best feeling ever!

I will post the recipes next week. For now some photos for your indulgence!

Top: Vanilla batter, Bottom: Chocolate batter

Pumpkin Cupcakes with vanilla/lemon Cream Cheese Frosting. Decoration : Orange food colouring and Black sugar bats.

Chocolate Cupcakes with Chocolate Buttercream Frosting. Decoration: Black food colouring (which makes your teeth and tongue go black) and white sugar ghosts.

Vanilla Cupcakes with Vanilla Buttercream Frosting. Decoration : (Not enough) green food colouring and sugar pumpkins.

The black food colouring worked quite well. It's more like a paste and I had to add quite a lot of it even though the buttercream was already brown (coz of the choc(: ).At first it looked more silvery/grey but after a while it turned pretty dark. These Chocolate Cupcakes are actually the same recipe as the first cupcake I got for my birthday some years back (see The Story Behind The Blog).
The lady owning that shop wrote a book full of recipes :)

And I actually wanted the green of the vanilla frosting to be even more green. However, I didn't have any food colouring left. But they look quite cute :)

Final product all packed and ready to be picked up. The boxes are great even though depending on the size of the cupcakes it can be kinda hard to put them in/ take them out again.
But I already ordered some other ones which I will show as soon as they'll get here.
I also ordered some more decoration for christmas as I will make some christmassy ones for a christmas market at the end of november..

but I will keep you posted about any sugary sweet news :D
