Last batch of cupcakes in the oven. DS is having birthday party on Friday. Fingers are all crossed that i can find time to make the little cakes presentable. I'm sure they are yummy, based on all the glowing comments on this thread :)

This cake paired very well with the Creamy Vanilla Frosting. Match made in heaven.

Baked these cupcakes on Tuesday. Chucked into the freezer in airtight containers. Piped icing yesterday (Thursday). Served them today -- > fabulous!



Thank you, ILB :)

Has anyone made these and the Creamy Vanilla Frosting using nuttlex or oil? I'm planning on make these for DS3's birthday this Sunday and one of the guests has a dairy intollerance so I would to avoid using butter and cream if possible.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks CC, but I also have to stay nut-free.

 I have found other dairy, nut and gluten-free recipes but the reviews haven't been very good. I have made the Bimby Chocolate Cake and Creamy Vanilla Frosting before and know they are delicious so wanted to see if anyone has tried substituting ingredients without changing the overall taste. I may just stick with original recipe and make a couple of dairy and nut free ones for the special guests.

Thanks again.

It looks very yummy.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

It was a nearly 5 year old or orchestrating his father's birthday. Streamers balloons noisy blowers, the prettiest part of the cake, dictating the icing (by poking holes in the cake that I had to hide) the overdose of candles, climbing for matches and then knife and then serving us all.  A bit scary really, I'll have to make a fuss of his Party next month.
