Oh December, the month filled with lots of Christmas parties to go to~ AND the one time of the year where I find myself doing the most baking and dessert-making only to give it away because I don’t really like eating sweets (except candy haha).  :p

So, the other week I was talking to my friend Clinton about how I’d love to get the chance to only decorate desserts– no mess and no fuss in all the baking time and hand mixing and being tired by the time you get to decorating– just. pure fun. decorating.

And I really have such amazing friends because… bless Clinton. He made 24 cupcakes and called us over to decorate!!!

It’s my first time getting to use piping materials and FONDANT (thank you Alex for getting us beautiful fondant) to decorate. You’ll… kind of see how we started to get a bit tired throughout the night. But I think we kind of redeemed ourselves near the end (???).

Clinton made dinner for us! Some nice pad thai, it was his first time making it, not bad!

I brought some things for us to decorate the cupcakes with! It’s honestly a lot of Halloween candy. But this one in particular was from Japan! Do you remember those small star candy in spirited away?!

Can you guess what there is?! There’s actually some crushed cinnamon bark and sugar cane sugar. You guys need to check Clinton’s place out, he’s super prepared and fancy :p.

I got to try my Daiso piping tools for the first time! I also spent the longest time on this cupcake and probably most of my energy for that day too XD.

Orange zest with Clinton’s first time piping his nicely made buttercream on top.

I actually can’t remember if this is nutmeg on top mixed with some ground almond and cinnamon.

Clinton spent a beautiful amount of time on this super adorable snowman. Totally worth it, can you guess what candy is on top of his head?!

I got lazy in cutting it out prettily… Be prepared I got lazier as the night got older.

Alex made this cute little… animal? 😀

I wanted to try out the other tips for piping, and it was just meh, so I tried to save it by marshmallow petals… yeah..

 

OKAY. I CAN EXPLAIN. It’s not a cigarette okay?! It was supposed to be a cookie monster but I couldn’t find a cookie, so that’s a lollipop. LOLLIPOP.

This reminds me of Majora’s mask for some odd reason. Basically the story behind this cupcake is that I messed up pretty badly because of this ugly colour I made for the buttercream, but I think i covered it up pretty nicely eh?

It looked a lot pretty in real life. Loved the smashed watermelon lollipop mmmMmmm.

Clinton made an owl!! He’s mighty cute haha.

Just a simple wreath. (Clinton couldn’t tell what it was D:)

Yes I didn’t post up all of them, but let’s end it off with this super cute mini cupcake on a cupcake! :D. I wish it had a tiny cherry on the top instead.

Rolling my way into the New Year….

New Year’s Resolution: I need more posts!!

Love,
