I had been approached before about offering cupcake decorating parties, but not really given it enough thought and it never worked out. This time however, I gave it proper attention, worked out exactly what I would need to do to prepare and bring with me, and it was Game On!
The girls had no idea I was coming, so they were pleasantly surprised to disover what the party entertainment was. They were 10 years old, or almost 10, so a good age to take in what I wanted to show them.
I brought baked vanilla cupcakes for each child, plus spares on which to demostrate. Plus a big bowl of fresh white vanilla buttercream, ready to be coloured. I chose 5 colours for the icing and about a dozen different sprinkles of all sorts of shapes and colours, plus a small tub or two of non-toxic foodsafe glitter, just for fun. Any more and I felt the girls would not be able to choose...
