My best looking cupcakes yet

So proud of these cakes.

I never tire of looking at this picture and it was something so simple.  It was my first time using "buttercream" made with cream cheese and icing cugar so wasn't sure how it would turn out but after flavouring with lemon essence and putting in the fridge it piped really well and I discovered that if I lift the nozzle slightly allowing the buttercream to slightly fall/drape as it curls around the cake it gives a defined pipesd look.  The pink was strawberry frosting ready made in Asda for £1.79 per tube ans tastes lovely.  I now have the ingredients to make my own so watch this space.
