Chestnut cream cupcakes!

I have a problem when I go food shopping. Im a impulse buyer, and not for normal things like the latest cracker flavour or a new cleaning product. Nah, I do weird things like odd flavoured jellies and foods I cant even pronounce. I have to try them. I find that exciting. If I had passed over everything that looked or sounded weird, id never had pandan flavoured treats or the super yummy creamy custard apples, that at the time looked half rotten. This last shopping trip I found chestnut cream, It was tucked away next to the peanut butter, and Vegemite right next to the nutella. I had enjoyed the holidays with all the fresh chestnuts being roasted and cooked, that i had to have this. Absolutely amazing!

The world needs more strawberry milk! Strawberry milk cupcakes

The world always needs more strawberry milk, In every form, Drinks, baked goods, chocolate bars, covering bacon.  I hardly ever drink milk, but when I do its strawberry... Its a shame my school didn't have it because I would gotten that over the soy I drank every day... chocolate milk lovers move over cuz strawberry milk is way better <3 Only epic people and unicorns get the joy of strawberry milk!

Honeydew Melon Cupcakes

There is this amazing stall at the market i go to often, At this stall is just buckets of cupcake liners, all diff styles and shapes and sizes. The also have a bunch of decorating tools and items. I finally noticed last time I was there they had flavourings. Normally I pass over flavourings since I have a large bunch and I really not a fan of using artificial colours and flavours, But a bright green on got my attention. Honeydew flavour. How often do you find that?

I love open markets. I love the small random things you find there without having to even go looking for them. Like mulberries. To be honest, this was the first time I've seen them. I had to get them just to try.. They were dried and I'm sure this wasn't the best way to have your first one. I found they were amazing sweet and light in flavour and had to make them into a cupcake. I went safe with the frosting just because I wasn't sure what would compliment the berry... I would definitely make these again.  I'm now excited with the idea of what I could make with fresh ones. <3

Snickerdoodle Cupcakes

Some of my favourite cookies as a child. My Mum made these all the time, filling the whole house with warm buttery cinnamon happiness. My boyfriend never had a snickerdoodle cookie in his life so along with this batch of cupcakes I made the cookies that they were based off of. It's a shame in my opinion that he's missed out on all these awesome flavors but I'm here to fix that. I hope one day that I'll be able to share all of these moments of my childhood with him.

Sauvignon blanc an citrus cupcakes

I made my own cupake wrappers <3!!!!!

Sauvignon blanc cupcakes and citrus. These came out so well. Last week we had done a Merlot and dark chocolate (personally I didn't like them, the frosting ended with a weird taste but it might have just been me)

We were originally going to do grapefruit instead of lemon, but Dave's lovely Mum gave me a ton of lemons and I don't normally use them. I didn't want them to go to waste so I incorporated them into this weeks delicious adventure.

Pink Cotton Candy Cupcake

Im not the biggest fan of all things covered in pink, But once I get on a colour theme idea, It has to be that way. Pink was it, Cotton Candy was the best flavour to do it with. The fluffy sweet stuff we all remember from our childhood at fairs/carnivals, Or still if you are like me and and still decide to enjoy the small stuff. I didn't want to  use a candy flavouring but insted incorporated cotton candy( fairy floss) into the frosting/cupcake itself.
