Teacher's Cupcakes

These cupcakes were an order for a teacher who was celebrating her 70th birthday on Sunday.  I made red and green apples, books, rulers & notepaper sugarpaste decorations for these cupcakes to suit the theme.  Shaunagh surprised me with 4 different Nicoletta food colouring markers she had bought at the Good Food and Wine Show on Friday so I used these to mark the lines and to do the writing on the notepapers.  These markers make it so much easier to write on sugarpaste.  I had been painting my writing using edible colouring and a paint brush – so thanks Shaunagh these are a breeze to use.  I hope the cupcakes went down well for your friend’s birthday!
