100g Caster Sugar

100g Butter

2 Eggs

1tbsp of Milk

5. Cook in oven for 10-15 mins until golden brown.

6. Allow to cool

This the the basic recipe I use and just add different flavours and icing. For these cupcakes I used a white mallow icing that you can get from most supermarkets, and I decorated them with some cupcake toppers from Ginger Ray visit www.gingerray.co.uk and some pretty lace effect cupcake wraps from Hobby Craft. 

Really, you can be as creative as you like with the flavours, colours and decorations to suit any occasion. I will be posting more cupcake ideas soon so keep an eye out!
