Ria's first cupcakes

Ria and I made her first batch of cupcakes last week using her Christmas present
Choco-Mocha cupcakes.
She even decorated them herself.
I'd like to think that this fact was obvious and that you expect a slightly higher standard of decoration from me.

They tasted very nice..."even though Ria made them" (Ian's words not mine!)
I gave her use of my kitchenaid.
Cheating I know, she has to learn to cream butter and sugar together by hand if she really wants to make cakes for a living. That means I also have to remember to take the butter out of the fridge to soften before thinking a 7 year old can cream rock hard butter! Lending her the kitchenaid was the least I could do!

Just so you know, this is what they were meant to look like!

Hm, I'm pretty sure she did a better job decorating than I could do ;)
