Ok so that is a photo of my actual fairycakes! You see why I said I wished they were as pretty as the ones in my last post :PLast night my Boyfriend's sister came home from work and was surprised to see the buns. She exclaimed "They look like foreign cupcakes! What are they?". It took her a surprisingly long time to realise the foreign person in the room may be responsible, which amused me no end! She wasn't sure if she could eat one, or if I "had a plan" for them. Well yes, my plan is to eat them! She agreed that they tasted like cornbread, so I voiced my concerns that I'd gone terribly wrong somewhere, as I didn't have ANY of the ingredients for cornbread in there!! But I was reassured that my Little Sister's fairy cakes had also tasted like cornbread, phew!
His sister also commented that she "Likes that they're chewy, not all fluffy". I did have to admit that they weren't SUPPOSED to be chewy, and that was the main way of showing that I'd messed up somewhere! But at least someone appreciated it, so it's all good!
I made 12 of the buns yesterday, but as of right now there is only 2 left! Once again, me and my boyfriend took care of my baking in record time, and if I keep this up we're going to get fat :P But it's so tasty, and I have suuuch a sweet tooth, I'm not sure I can help myself! My boyfriend on the other hand isn't too big on sweet things, so I must be doing something right to have him rivalling me on who eats it all first!!
So I change my verdict to a - SUCCESS!
That was very brave Charli to post the actual picture !!
ReplyDeleteErm! Well I can see why you used the other picture lol. I think you need more icing sugar and less water in your icing!! But well done for trying and you will get better (I might be thinking you can't get any worse!).

LOL Thank you both for your support :P Really appreciated :P I kind of figured I'd put too much water and not enough sugar in, I'll just have to keep practising :) I don't mind, I like buns! :) xxxxx
