Nigela's Ganache is amazing. This is my new favorite topping for cupcakes and cakes! I'm getting pretty good at it too! I'm learning not to mix or fuss with it too much, so it stays super shiny!

Simply Lovely Cup Cakes. King Arthur Flour's web site has sugared flowers quite often,especially Easter Time. Miss Lawson has demonstrated how to 'candy' an organically grown pansy or similar small flower. Dead easy. She is The One I search out on a Regular Basis for my Baking requirements. Metric only way to Bake!

These are the best cupcakes you can ever make. Great with royal icing, and great with buttercream. I've made them twice and both times I had excellent results. I did notice that if you make them in a standing mixer (ie cream butter and sugar, add eggs and vanilla then flour you will get a more spongy texture. And if you don't have a processor, by all means use a blender. You just get so much better results. In her book, she states that if you make it with the creaming method, she suggests to add a tablespoon of the flour between each egg and then finish with the rest of the flour.

These do not bake up like a cupcake, with a nice mounded shape. Inferior crumb testure.

My 4 year old daughter made these by herself, and they are wonderful! I gave them 5 stars for flavor, but I have to say they came out an odd shape. They looked a little like volcanos, with the batter "erupting" into sharp little peaks on top. My daughter thought they looked hysterical, so we're pleased.
