Go Bananas...

Well I havent been as productive as I promised over this loooong weekend, amongst going to armageddon, enjoying copious amounts of lindaeur that was unfortunately on special for $8.99, watching far too many episodes of rock of love 2 ( I now know who won so can sleep easy) and sleeping I only mananged to make one batch of cupcakes...

In saying that though I think they turned out well! I used Martha Stewarts' Banana Pecan Cupcakes recipe but omitted the caramel buttercream and just went with my standard buttercream and put a tiny dash of yellow food coloring in (to stay with the banana theme)... I used my new favourite tip the 1M

 

For the toppings I made a little banana split-esque topper with candy bananas and mini marshmallows

 

and then melted some dark chocolate and poured it over like chocolate sauce, finally topping it with some chopped nuts and little chocolate sprinkles!

 Think they look pretty cute and they taste super yum! Check them out on flickr or facebook (links to the left) as they have now been added to my order list :)
