Simple Vanilla Cupcakes

For my first cupcake post I thought I'd start with a basic cupcake design. I used a simple vanilla cupcake recipe of 4oz sugar and butter creamed together, 2 eggs beaten and mixed in and 4oz of self raising flour folded in. I then used some butter icing, which I separated and added green, blue and red to, to get these pastel colours. Then I simply piped the icing on using a piping bag and nozzel.

I also added some edible glitter to make them a little special and I love a bit of sparkle!

I think these cakes are perfect for celebration cakes or just as practise for piping icing.
They were delicious!

Tell me what you think :)
