I am soo pleased with the Oreo ones - I wanted to see if you could pipe icing onto sprinkles and it turns out you can! I'm going to make more of those for next week as they proved very popular and I'd only made those 4 which was a bit sad :( But for the lucky few they had delicious vanilla cupcakes with crushed Oreos in the sponge and then filled with chocolate spread and covered in chocolate sprinkles - it doesn't get much better than that! The ones above that are strawberry jam cupcakes with a jam filling so it's like a little Victoria sponge all in one.

I've been doing cookery classes recently - some with children and some with adults. The most recent was last Friday at a church on Hills Road and it was great fun. There were 12 women and one poor man who had come along to race through dessert and cake making. They made white chocolate mousse, chocolate tart, tuiles and 2 flavours of cupcakes as well as practising some decorating techniques! The room was filled with a cloud of icing sugar but luckily the Prosecco was flowing so everyone enjoyed themselves including the man who was over from Israel to practise his English. He was adopted by a lovely older lady working on his table so he seemed to be ok - what an intro to an English Friday night...
