Cupcakes are all the rage these days.
Potentially they are quite cute and pretty to look at and the plethora of flavours and designs I saw last year at the Masterchef Live left me astounded. Here are some combinations out of this cookbook that leave my tastebuds tingling:
- Banana & Salt Caramel
- Wickedly Dark Chocolate & Chili
- Pistachio, Rosewater & Grenadine
- Coconut & Passion Fruit
- Banoffee and Toffee Fudge
If you (or someone you know) are an aspiring baker, Special Cupcakes is for you!
