Believe it or not it was my first time baking yesterday. After college, me, marie, regina and chye peng joined ruiyi to try out baking. Ruiyi baked a chocolate cake (don't think something else). So I wanted to try making cupcakes since it was such in a craze with people. Went to the internet to search for the recipe. Thank God for internet. What will we ever do with out it!
Then went to Wasbudi (an incredibly run-down super market) to get some deco stuff for the cupcakes and a box of milk. While the cupcakes were baking in the oven, Ruiyi and I started making the icing. We added chunks of butter and mixed it with the sugar. Unfortunately it kept clumping because the we forgot to melt the butter. Sooo the mixture went into a pot and heated it until it starts looking like icing!
So excited on decorating the cupcakes. *skips,smile, laugh*
BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT when i tried spreading some icing on the top of the cupcake, the icing harden's so fast till it kept breaking and falling apart when i added more. And when I sprinkled some choc rice, it didn't stay on the icing, it just kept falling even more! So disappointed!!!
Genius Marie, haha came up with a plan to mix the deco stuff with the icing. Okay so we tried it out, reheat the icing to soften it. Fucky-d fuck fuck (sorry for the vulgar word). The choc rice melted and the icing colour turn into this shity brown colour with colourful stars all mixed up in it. Disaster!!! We ended up ditching the icing and left the cupcakes plain by itself.
