I bravely offered to make the most fabbo Gala Darling writer and blogger of Icing glittery cupcakes for her birthday (today) as she too is from Melbourne, and deserves to be spoilt. She accepted so we arranged a safe handover place with her and completed the transaction yesterday, kids in tow. Believe me she is gorgeous - pink hair, I love NY T, tall, stunning, she stops traffic.
So I came up with light and tasty coconut cupcakes, topped with super soft marshmallow in blue, pink or purple, styled with stars or hearts and metallic sugar balls. I didn't sample these but the batter was scrummy and the marshmallow frosting is super soft and sweet but doesn't hit you straight away. So I have to wait to find out what she thought.
If you get a chance check out her site Icing and you will be forever addicted to her outlook on life.

Your blog was linked from another blog I read. So, right before bed, my eyes were glued to your lovely confections.
Then in the night I dreamed.....I dreamed about your marshmallow icing........I dreamed I was eating it.....then drowning in it.
Would you be willing to share the recipe.
Wow those are absolutely beautiful. I bet they tasted wonderful as well.
What's the recipe for that colorful marshmellow frosting? I'm so curious as it looks so much glossier and nicer than mine ever comes out.
Hi Cupcaketastic,
OMG these look absolutely awesome! I love how the marshmallow frosting looks all soft and yet still retains the piped shaped.
yum yum yum indeed :D
Yes I'd love the recipe for the marshmallow icing too!!
I've got a little girl's birthday coming up and this frosting would be fabulous.
Thanks for visiting Icy, hope your cupcakes turned out well.

Bluepig & i[dot] Thanks for the b'day wishes it seems like such a long time ago now.

SuperGlobalHyperMeganet - thanks for visiting great to hear from a fellow Melbournite. This blog is not a business (mind you one day it would be great to make a living from bringing happiness & smiles to peoples lives) as all my cakes are cakes of love, but if you have a special occasion that you have in mind and I am free I would love an excuse to make more cakes and cupcakes. If you are serious then contact me trashaqua@bigpond.com
Hi chocolate chic, welcome, I really should put a disclamer about viewing before bedtime or late at night. I'll post the recipe for the marshmallow soon.
Queen of the domain I believe from Gala they were delishious.
