That Time We Made Cupcakes...

I have a sister. She's younger than me, the baby of the family as she likes to remind everybody... she is a little odd at times, and reminds me a lot of me. I tend to talk about her a lot, soooo it's no surprise that she spills over into my blog too...

One Saturday the parentals popped out, and Sisterbelle and I decided to spontaneously bake cupcakes. We raided the cupboards for ingredients, and settled into creating some vanilla cupcakes with buttercream icing. Omnom!

The cupcake part went brilliantly, they looked and smelt great, we got them out and got to making the buttercream icing. This is basically butter, and icing sugar. And butter. Because we ran out of icing sugar...we also decided to make the icing lilac.

so when we finally served the cupcakes, and ate them, they were a little...sickly?  veeerryy buttery. Of course we ate them all up anyway!
