Robo-cupcakes

With Dominic's second birthday coming up, it was time to make some pre-brithday weekend cupcakes. I used the chocolate mud cupcakes recipe out of the Cabury's cookbook and they were delicious. The decorations were mutilated licorce allsorts that were then reassembled to look like Plex the Robot (well, as close as I could get. Modelling out of licorce allsorts were harder than I expected).



Chocolate mudcake, blue frosting and lolly robot goodness.



A lone orange robot surround by yellow Plex robots.



Victory! Dom approves of his sample cupcake.



In fact, they taste so good that he licks his fingers rather than the wiping sticky hands on Mum's jeans and smearing them with blue icing.



'Hmm, I can see more cupcakes on the bench...'

Soon followed by an abrupt end to photo session as I had to flee to save plate of cupcakes. Having a wee one who is tall enough to grab whatever he wants of the bench can be all sorts of trouble.

I should probably find a hiding place for cupcakes to keep them safe from Dom and his parents...

Cupcakes now safely in a container in the top of the pantry!

Well, all except the half-cupcake that didn't fit. That's safely stored in Mummy and Daddy's bellies :-)

Awesomw cupcakes!! And judging by the Dominators face they taste as good as they look. Dom looks very grown up, particularly in the last shot - as you say, being able to explore bench tops is a whole new dimension in fun :)!

Those look so good! I have a cadbury cookbook. Must see if there are cupcakes in it!

Dom + ice cream, Dom + chocolate, and Dom + cup cakes. I am sensing a growing theme of Dom + sugary goodness.

Can we make requests? I request Dom with a Snakes Alive medusa wig!

Hmm, too many pics of Dom devouring sugary snacks, you say? I shall have to ensure that the next photoshoot involves vegetables to be more representative of his well-balanced diet. :-)
