When I asked Meg what she wanted to do for her birthday she said 'Karate', so as her birthday falls today we are both going to her regular Thursday class. We aren't going empty handed though...
Meet the Banana Cupcake...
...a light banana sponge topped with cream cheese frosting, dried banana chips and a drizzle of toffee sauce! New for me, next is the Rolo Cupcake...
...a chocolate sponge with a secret caramel centre, topped with chocolate and caramel frosting and a rolo! Adapted from
this recipe( I left out the chopped rolos from the cake mix and added 25g more flour). Only taking 11 of these with us as we had to test one! Here are the rest though...
Finally we have the 'Death by Chocolate Easter cake' which carries the warning 'Consume at your own risk!'
This cake is being raffled off to raise funds for the Karate Club, and has already raised about £30! Hoping for a few more ticket sales when they see it for real tonight!
I have inhaled rather a lot of icing sugar and all I can smell is chocolate - can sugar get into your blood stream through inhalation?! I hope not!!!
Right, I'd better go and finish cleaning up - enjoy the rest of your day and thanks for looking!

Funny, looks like we were both on a sugar high at the same time! And talking of sugar highs, my god!, whoever wins that cake is going to be on one until Christmas, lol! Happy belated birthday to Meg.

Oh my gosh! You are not kidding. I've slipped into a sugar coma just looking at this post. Oh my gosh.
Goodness me - what a super spread. It's the rolo cupcakes that tickle my fancy……..

Wow Sally! These all look amazing and extremely yummy.
Good luck with the fund raising although I'm sure they will all disappear in a flash as they look so gorgeous.
Hugs, Fliss xx
