It's Thursday again, and it's time for me to bake something for Nic to bring for her dance class on Friday.
I realised kids are such a fuss sometimes as there are certain taste they do not like...:-p
I had bought a Cupcake Recipe book for almost half a year but I have yet to try the recipes as I was afraid that the kids might not like them... So yesterday night was my 1st attempt.... hahaha...
Orange Zest Almond Flakes Cupcakes
I made these cupcakes in 3 different style:
1. Plain Orange Zest Cupcakes - For the fussy Kids
2. Orange Zest Almond Flakes Cupcakes - For any kids
3. Plain Orange Zest Cupcakes, topped with cream & choc bits - For kids who love cream
While the cupcakes were still baking in the oven, you can smell the orange fragrant.
So let's see how did we fair on this recipe... :-p
Nic has been waiting for the cupcakes for quite some time. She kept pestering, asking me if I was done with my photo-taking.... :-p
There, finally, she took the other half of the cupcake. The texture was really soft, and most importantly, Nic said it was nice. So I guess this orange zest cupcakes should do fine with the kids.... hehehehe....
Decorated some cupcakes with the cream for Nic to bring to school.Hope the kids will finished the cupcakes... :-D
I brought some cupcakes for my colleagues, they all said it was yummy!
