sainsbury's doing the book for £6.50 in a box with 100 pink cupcake cases - just in case you need to drop a more direct hint emmaandnoah. i picked it up and then found my waistline telling me step away.

[emmaandnoah]

i think ill just buy it and wrap it, to mummy from mummy

i deserve it, i been good

he wont mind, he enjoys eating everything i make anyway

[emmaandnoah]

well i gave in with the hints and told him straight up that i want the book.
He said ok then, but you can fetch it, im not going sainsburys.
So i fetched it this afternoon

He wants the vanilla cupcakes 1st then he'll have a go at the choclate ones. hes a cheeky git lol

I'd love that book! sounds fab!!

We made blueberry cupcakes today which are yummy

[emmaandnoah]

muffins sound yummy
the book with the cupcake wrappers was £8 or the full size big book was £9.99. so i had the big hardback book. cant wait to get stuck in its only big branches of sainsburys thats got it. i went to my local small one, they didnt have it. so ended up trekking to the big one, was worth every mile though

i dont think im gonna lose any weight this week. made 2 batches of vanilla cupcakes today. 1 lot went to OH's garage for the family and the other is sat in the tins in the kitchen. ive only had 1 so far. absolutely gorgeous. to die for
boys want chocolate cupcakes tommorrow, then i think i better hide the book and forget where ive put it or ill end up the size of a house

Yes the vanilla were yummy. I haven't made the choc ones yet.
Please let me know how it goes?

Did you do your cupcakes in muffin cases or cupcake cases?
My vanilla ones had a few crumbs stuck inside the case, did yours?

Enjoy the baking
