    Hi everyone

    I'm more of a lurker than a poster but just wanted to say thanks for inspiring me with this thread. I haven't baked anything since school but I got a bit busy with wooden spoon and piping bag last night and made these for a 12 year old's birthday party today.

    They aren't perfect and got bashed about when I drove them over to the house but I'm soooo proud, infact I was a little upset when people started to eat them! Oh and even though the "set up costs weren't cheap (I had no muffin pans and the silver muffin cases aren't cheap) they definatly didn't cost £20 for 12 :D

    Those look absolutely beautiful. you have every right to be proud.

    How do you make them come out flat on top? mine always look like little volcanos and aren't very good for icing.

    and yes, please tell us where you got the decorations.
