Last night was a bit of a late one, I finally finished all my baking & decorating and managed to sit down at 12.45am!!....as well as finishing off Amy's 21st cake (see previous post), I made some festive cupcakes for OH's office as its their last day in work before Christmas. Making of the cupcakes itself were no problem, the toppers were a little bit more time consuming! I went with little penguins (once you got on a roll making them they were ok to do, but black fondant is messy to work with; it stains your hands and is very soft), holly leaves with silver glitter and red berries and green glitter Christmas trees. I coloured some vanilla buttercream a bright green and swirled on top of the cakes.
I also made them some of my festive streusel mince pies so hopefully their last office meeting with morning will be truly festive!!
Only 2 more cakes to do this weekend and then that's me hanging up my apron for this year!
Happy Christmas x

Your festive cakes are gorgeous. My favourite is the glittery Christmas tree
