Jingle Bells and Pitter Patter Christmas Cupcakes!

I love popping into Baking Bitz in Randburg as there are always new sugar paste decorations in stock.  I don’t often buy ready made ones as I love creating my own and choosing my own colours, but these cute little stockinged mice were too adorable to resist.  To match the Christmas theme for our year end scrapping day at the Memory Shed I baked cranberry, dark chocolate and orange cupcakes, topped them off with a creamy vanilla icing and then nestled the sugar paste mouse hiding in his stocking onto each cupcake and added a sprinkle of silver beads around each mouse.  We had a brilliant morning sharing all our Christmas faire and beautiful gifts and it was the perfect way to end another great year of scrapbooking.
