those bee's are soooooo cute and i love the animal cupcakes. I am doing cupcakes for a school cake sale and think I might do some cookie monster style.
I also need to make 50 cupcakes for dd's birthday. She loves anything princess so maybe something like that. I want to make them using sugarpaste but am not sure what designs to make as there will be boys there too. any idea's?

Does anyone have a diabetic cupcake recipe they could share please?0

I would be interested in a diabetic recipe too as FIL is diabetic and I felt guilty when we took some cakes round. Do you just use sweetener sugar?“A budget is telling your money where to go instead of wondering where it went.” - Dave Ramsey0
