I went online and ordered a shamrock cutter so that I could make my own cupcake toppers but when it came in the post a day before the event I realised it was the wrong size. It was a cookie cutter size instead of a cupcake decoration size.<\/p>\n<p>I had to go back to the drawing board! Let us just say I learnt a lot about Ireland in two hours than I had ever learnt in my whole life. I decided to go for the Irish flag colour scheme. I went to the shops to buy some white cupcake cases. When I arrived there I was so happy to find out there was one pack of orange and green cupcake cases left on the shelf which I quickly bought together with the white ones.<\/p>\n<p>Before the event the tennis club decided they wanted 50-60 cupcakes instead of the original one hundred. Phew!!!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/meadowbrown-trh1.wp1.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7893.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-605 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/meadowbrown-trh1.wp1.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7893-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"vanilla cupcakes\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/meadowbrownbakery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7893-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/meadowbrownbakery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7893-600x448.jpg 600w, https:\/\/meadowbrownbakery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7893-1024x764.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>They wanted two flavours, <a title=\"Vanilla Cupcake Recipe\" href=\"https:\/\/meadowbrown-trh1.wp1.site\/vanilla-cupcake-recipe\/\">vanilla <\/a>and chocolate cupcakes.<\/p>\n<p>I always bake my cupcakes on the day of any event because I like them to be fresh. I start really early on the day and never leave it last minute in case I forget something and have to start all over again. Starting early gives me a chance to correct anything if it goes wrong.<\/p>\n<p>I first baked vanilla cupcakes using my favourite vanilla cupcake recipe. Whilst they were baking I made the chocolate cupcake mixture. Whilst the vanilla cupcakes were cooling and the chocolate cupcakes were baking and I started on the butter icing.<\/p>\n<p>I then divided the icing into 3 different bowls. One was left white, the other coloured orange and the last one green. Yes, the colours on the Irish flag.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/meadowbrown-trh1.wp1.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_79031.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-597 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/meadowbrown-trh1.wp1.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_79031-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"butter icing\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/meadowbrownbakery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_79031-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/meadowbrownbakery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_79031-600x448.jpg 600w, https:\/\/meadowbrownbakery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_79031-1024x764.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When the cupcakes were completely cold I decorated them.<\/p>\n<p>These were my results and the tennis club loved them.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/meadowbrown-trh1.wp1.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7948.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-598\" src=\"https:\/\/meadowbrown-trh1.wp1.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7948-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"rish themed vanilla cupcakes, St patrick's day cupcakes\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/meadowbrownbakery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7948-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/meadowbrownbakery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7948-600x448.jpg 600w, https:\/\/meadowbrownbakery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7948-1024x764.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Irish themed vanilla cupcakes I was asked to bake one hundred Irish themed cupcakes with a shamrock on top of each for my tennis club.
