Coco Lavender-Blue

Another wonderful combination. Blueberry and Lavender Chocolate cakes. I have not used lavender before in any of my sweets so was interested in the results. You definitely get an unexpected burst of lavender flavour running through the chocolate cake. Not too sure if little ones would appreciate it, but hubs definitely thought it was worth it.

Coco Strawberry

Now that I have a favourite chocolate cupcake recipe under my belt, I'm trying it in combination with the lovely fruits of the season. Today was Strawberry day. In this cupcake lies fruity sweet Strawberry with rose-petals and a hint of Lychee Tea. I topped it with some quick strawberry jelly. They looked so pretty, almost a shame to eat, but they were delish nevertheless....

Citrus Green Tea Cupcakes

I just love the subtle but distinct nutty flavour of Green Tea and definitely wanted to try it in a cupcake. But what to pair it with. It needed to be refreshing and at the same time very moorish. Citrus came to mind and Chocolate. So here it is. Citrus Green Tea with a dark chocolate ganache frosting. Yum!
