Little bites of delight

For my birthday this year my friend bought me a cup cake course, where we would learn how to decorate teeny weeny cakes. I have been so looking forward to it for ages. Sunday we travelled to London near Camden town. The day was organised by Cocoa Box in a hotel. We started piping the cupcakes and they were then baked in a mini oven.

We learnt to make sugar craft bows, ice cream cones and cupcakes to decorate the tops of iced cakes.

We also piped swirls and decorated them with all sorts of sugary delights and edible glitter for cup cake bling.

We had to decorate 8 cakes but unfortunately the box they supply can only carry 6. I had to carry the other two in my tummy, such a shame.

We had a great time only a shame it didn't last very long.

Here are a few of my vintage finds from this week a big haul in the charity shop. I' m loving the cherry tablecloth not quite sure what to do with the material yet.Hmmm, some sort of nylon concoction.
